Missy bought a 1984 Gremlin Stepvan that used to be a Mac Tools work van. She then converted it into a mobile dog grooming van with a 500 gallon water tank and a washing area, This was separated from a back section that became a living area for her and her daughter to live in. She then decide to re convert it and turn the whole van into a tiny home with a kitchen, a seating area, a bed for her and a bunk style bed for her daughter with bike storage underneath. The Van is empty because Missy has moved on to renting a space so that her daughter can start going to school. But she hopes one day to get a smaller van for camping trips.

This sprinter van was a project that professional van builder Chance Steadman took on. His client had a few design elements that he wanted and hired Chance because he loved the natural materials and his unique style in his previous builds. This Sprinter van looks like a normal cargo van or business work van from the outside, but once you step in it feels like you are in an artsy cabin in the woods. The conversion makes the van fully liveable with a two burner propane stove, a 12 volt compressor chest fridge, 2 deep cycle batteries that total 200 amp hours plus, an inverter to power household electronics, a hanging closet, a portable toilet, and a custom mattress bed. Chance incorporated these in a creative way, for example there was a piece of galvanised metal that acts as a heat guard and backsplash that would clash against the look he was going for, but instead of letting that happen he leaned into it and built a asymmetric frame and border around it to tie it into the rest fo the kitchen. The van also has a mural inside it on the back doors done by a local artist named Kashi. Kashi is a visionary artist and her artwork is quite psychedelic as well as it plays with themes of royalty, and accompanies the organic natural feel of the rest fo the van. I hope you enjoyed this episode of Alternative Dwellings, I recommend you check this channel out and the other videos we have to offer, and I ask you to share this with you social media!
Thank you!
