Wheel accessible 4x4 expedition camper - in the Netherlands!

[77blazerchalet]

I think it's in the Netherlands, a quick Altavista Babelfish translation left a lot to be desired. Scroll way to the bottom for the pics. Anybody know of a better web site translator?

And of course, it's a rare old vehicle dear to my heart, doncha know......

Thanks, Muddy! Much better translation than what I got, which was 1/3rd at most.

It's also advertised (?) at this site, scroll most of the way down the page, appears to be the same text. This place alters vehicles for handicap use. Maybe this is the originating seller and the "Markplaats" is a secondary...

No worries. Freedom Motors did do the conversion on the Chalet.

Markplaats is sorta like Craigslist.

Gemaakt vor elkaar = made for everyone.

Good news, I received an email direct from the owner and he does write very good English. He says he will send photos of the interior soon, so I will share them as soon as I receive them. He is selling it because of the need to have a vehicle where he doesn't need to move from the wheelchair to a driver's seat.

The table folds flat into the floor, my composite of the passenger side shows the overhead compartment open on the left side, closed on the right side, toilet has a cover to make more 'desktop' space. The refridgerator door next to the sink has a mirror surface. He sent me many more photos, PM me with an email address if any of you want to see all of them. Very impressive conversion!

News update: A collector of unusual vehicles living in France (who also bought a Blazer Chalet in NM and had it shipped to him) bought this within the last few days. It is now in good hands.
