I have bread van that I converted to a stealth camper too. With the same idea of an outward appearance of a construction vehicle, with a fictitious company name, ABC Contracting and Consulting. My van got broken in to a couple of times, by people looking for construction tools. So I changed the name to, ABC Sewage and Septic Services. Nobody has broken in to it since.
Ah good call. I would make it look like the one in Back to the Future
Super smart..... 😂
Sorry that happened. My brother in laws work truck was broken into and all tools stolen. Very expensive loss for him. And it was around the covid Era. He was devastated. We all got together and each gave money to him. He eventually repayed everyone. His company is doing well and he had a baby girl. How precious. He went through struggle but he has overcome💕 maybe you should be featured on this channel? I'd love to see more of these vans.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Please don’t park it in neighborhoods taking up residence parking spaces.
the ladder on the roof is ingenious 🤫
Love it
Absolutely awesome great job building it out
Seen countless builds over the last month and this is one of my favorites. Very inspiring and If i wasn't raising a family id be doing this exact thing myself
Gorgeous! The ladders hiding the solar is sooo good. Best I’ve seen.
Wow, thank you!
A super job!! It has it all.
Yay ladders to steal.
Jackpot ladders to use while stealing the solar panels.
That thing wouldn't last 2 days in California without getting stolen and stripped. 😂
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures does he want to sell it?Seriously
I always thought these types of vehicles would make a great DIY. He knocked it out of the park!
Thanks Glen
Im not that talented. Who does conversions
Great layout and LOVE the stealth approach.😊
This gentleman did a wonderful job on his build and I enjoyed listening to his walk through. He was very thorough. Thank you so much!
Glad you enjoyed it
Great build....excellent craftsmanship evident throughout!
I know it's your step van but I hope you love it like it's your real van.
Oh yeah
😂
It's the Ray & Ray show🤣.....nice build👍🏜
Ha
excellent well done
Very cool
This man did an excellent job.
Agreed
I appreciate it!!
20- 30k? This amazing for that price. He has alot of knowledge that brought cost down but very remarkable all things considered.
Appreciate the support
THE BEST ONE YET .
Appreciate it
Excellent job, very nice. I could definitely live in this rig.

As a 30 year UPS veteran I can honestly say this is my dream stealth camper. I could drive that and live in that until I turn into dust. This is by far hands down the coolest conversion I have ever seen. Thanks for sharing
@mcnasty true, but all the other ways he is saving still makes it a good way to go.
Thank you for your service sir🙌
I want one how much
Absolutely, I’ve worked almost two years as a UPS shifter, loading, unloading and washing their fleet. I could live in one for the rest of my days but they won’t sell them since they had a truck used in the committing of crimes years ago. So they send trucks to the crusher …. What a waste!
Cool conversion - love it!
This is by far one of the best builds ! I like that there’s no windows which adds security! Your safety is important
So happy you found this
Some points are very impressive
Outstanding!
I can't compliment this build enough. It would be my dream RV. My dad drove a bread truck for over 25 years, and I'm seriously considering using one to convert.
Great build, great guy, great tour!
Right on!
My Daddy drove a sandwich truck "Made Right" for several years; he actually bought one years later and we converted it into a camper! It slept 6 people, had a fridge, stove, dinner table, sink and lots of storage (this was in the 80's). We used it mainly for going to craft fairs. My Memom (his mother) earned most of her income by making things to sell at fairs. Wonderful memories 💖
When the word “stealth” comes into play, exterior is everything. And this van lives up to it’s title. The ‘sewer-service” was a very clever solution. With your permission, I will use that for mine too.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Great point!
Great van! I wish I could get one like it. 😊
Three dogs 😮💨! that garage looks like a great place for the dogs 🐶 . Night night now.
You are UNBELIEVABLE!! Wow a true talent!! Awesome!! 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Very cool. Two Jersey boys. Can't top that lingo.
You like it
Great build and video😊
Step vans are the largest vans that will fit in a parking space. As a truck driver, yes on the Cummins engine!
Like your stealth ideas, especially the solar panels.
This is an awesome Step Van build, one of the best I've seen.
Thanks Paula
Looks very interesting. You did an awesome job.
Thank you! Cheers!
This is a great 👍job!!!!😇
really nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! Cheers!
Very excited about this tour today. Kevin will be joining us for chat midway through the video.
Wow, just wow!
Glad you like it
Absolute genius!
Yes 🙌
WELL DONE!!!
Thanks 😊
Very nice build and excellent motor/transmission combo
Thank you very much!
How he did the solar panels is genius. Excellent build!
It’s really a great install
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures Somehow I doubt the accuracy of this statement of "6300watts of solar on each side"... ( 18:14 ) 😆
Very nice. Thanks for showing us your baby.
My pleasure 😊
Well done Sir, dream stealthy rv...
I love this! My dad converted a garden center Chevy Step-Van, in the 1970's, into a camper, too! It wasn't quite as nice as this, but it served our family of 3 for many years of fun.
Very cool!
Is it still around?
@gelly8983 I doubt it. They sold it in 1980 when they bought a "lemon" 32 foot King's Highway. It was nothing but trouble though we enjoyed it, too.
Great build and KUDOS to you for your efforts to your build :)- !!!
Thank you kindly!
Suggestion...some padding on that bar on the seats. It's head level. Just an observation. Love the build. - Mike
Awesome build have fun
Your the first person I've ever heard that has a heated blanket i have one too and I love it idk why more people don't use them in colder areas ❤
Best purchase
I love this build!! An efficiency apartment on wheels!
It’s really a good platform
Love how stealthy it is. Great spaces.
It really is!
love the solar panels on the ladders idea
Me too
Out of all the builds I've seen this one ranks @ the top. When he crawled into his garage area and was able to sit up I was like "whooooa that is so cool" and he still had a lot of extra room to store more stuff. Nice, neat & very well organized. Awesome idea with the extension ladders. I do wish he would've elaborated a little on what the fabrication/covering material is on the roof. Looks very durable. He thought of everything and I was waiting on him to say some outrageous costs, but $10k made me smile. Heck yeah! New subscriber also. Your channel popped up on my radar. Great content!
Awesome, so happy you found the channel
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures
yeah...nice feature
(also brand new to the channel)
The extension ladders was a stroke of genius. Well done Sr.
Thank you.
what a brilliant guy.....
Yes. Agreed
Super job
Thanks
I believe, this is the best of both worlds, Van/RV life, not too small, not too big.
You really ask all the right questions. So far, this is my favorite tour.
We agree!
Installing the solar panels using ladders is absolutely brilliant….👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
We agree!
This was BRILLIANT! 💡
Nice build.
This guy did a simply awesome job. So much respect for this man and his build. Well done!!
Thanks Richard
Nice build! Great interior size and layout! The exterior paint job looks really good and is giving me the confidence to paint my tiny toy hauler home when I finish the interior reno. Brilliant installation of the solar panels. There's nothing that would give the living space away. Thanks for the tour, I really enjoyed it.
Go for it Suzanne!
Beautiful God bless u be safe
That is very cool camper..this guy thought of everything and anything about it..very good..and that Cummins is a nice touch.
This is awesome and one of the best stealth camper vans I've ever seen. You'd never know all that is inside from the outside.
Thanks!! I appreciate the feedback!!
Thanks for the feedback Darryl
Great idea with the solar panel mounts! I was going to sell my aluminum ladder but I think I’ll keep them for my build 😁…Great tour and awesome build … Thanks for sharing ✌🏼
Glad you like it
Dang! That looks fantastic!!
Beautiful!
Love it ... I am always amazed (in a good way ) at the creativity and thoughtfulness that comes out of people ... 💕
safe travels 🙏🏾
Thank you very much!
Incredibly clean work, awesome conversion.
Thank you very much!
SENDING OUT SOME SERIOUS LOVE FROM NEW JERSEY...WE ARE THE BEST.
🙌
I love the stealth factor this van has. That’ll certainly deter unwanted attention! 👮♀️ 👮♂️ 👨 👩 👀🕵️🕵️🧛♀️🧛
Hiker emoji never existed anymore. Mandela Effect.
Totally
I like how you added vampires. 😂
Maybe not. There's a big theft industry around construction, and vehicle break-ins are the most common opening fir that. Bad guys drive around looking for marked trucks and vans and things like this knowing how to get in quickly. They might be surprised to not find tools but they'll take what they can get and be rolling away within 3 minutes with everything they can grab. Should have left it looking like a bakery truck or a catering truck; stealth remains without indicating easy value for thieves is on board.
@@Ciara1594 haha! I cracked myself up with that too I’m glad you appreciated that 😂
i have always enjoyed watching bread style truck conversions, they are more spacious inside than most people realize so there is more room to build ..great job.
I totally agree!
I never realized. Now I will look for more videos lol
IMpressive!!!!
Glad you like it
That’s one giant step van. Holy cow.
Yes 🙌🏼
Nice job and thank you for sharing.
You bet
This is very cool almost my dream
Glad you like it
Totally amazing build! Well done!
Excellent presentation.
Thank you kindly!
Amazing build. Easily top 5 I've ever seen. Very impressive 👏🏽
Wow, thanks!
POSSIBLY the Best build ive seen(definitely up there at the top) and I've probably seen a couple thousand by now researching for when I do my own build..
Fantastic, the guy has thought of and included EVERY possible necessity/need while on the road! Attention to detail, second to none!
Brilliant 👍🏴🇬🇧
Wow, thanks!
WOW gorgeous
Thank you! Cheers!
sweet white appliances 👍😉
The best
Amazing!!!
Thanks!!
What a beautiful "bread van"! You did a great job, congrats! BTW: I agree that the 5.9 Cummins and the Allison Trans is the way to go. I have owned 2 Cummins 5.9's and have been very happy with them.
Thanks for the feedback
love it i also laughed that you bumped your head in the garage then made it not noticeable 😂
Nicely done....😊 Have fun parking in regular lots
Thank you, I will
Really nice build and tour. Love the way everything was described !
Thanks so much!
Very nice rig.
It sure is!
Well done!
Thank you I’m glad you liked it
Very cool, thanks for sharing 👍
You bet
This is one of the most interesting builds I have seen. Price wise it is well within a budget I would have have. Great job.
Love this!! So much space and everything needed to be comfortable! Another great episode, Patrick!! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦
Thanks so much!
@@NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures you're welcome!!
Hello from Vancouver Island 🌴
By far one of the best I seen.
Excellent
Lovely job! It's a real home from home.
It really is!
He did a great job keeping it stealthy. 👍
He really did
awesome job - love the lay out and great build quality - hope to be OCD enough to get a build done at this level of craftsmanship one day :-) stealth is a plus
OCD is not something you should wish for.
You got this Bob
beautiful! 😍
Thank you! 😊
Love the basement.
Beautiful build! Everything has been done very carefully with professional work.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful build! Love it!
