Dan's Ford Transit 148ext High Roof

Dan the Van Man’s Transit

Dan's long wheel base/high roof transit was designed with long term travel and live-in capability in mind.  Not only does it act the part, but with plenty of Aluminess goodies installed it looks tough doing it. Dan wanted a cabin like space that was not only handsome, but also includes all of the amenities for life on the road.  His Transit is packed with storage from under-bed shelving to upper cabinets that run the full length of the van's interior.
