I came to know the seller years ago when he became part of the very small group of Earthroamer Jeep owners and we have kept in touch since then. I don’t know this exact rig very well, but I do know its owner as a gentleman and—as you can undoubtedly tell from the comprehensive information...

That is a very fine writeup and picture show of a nicely-built Wrangler Overlander. (I think we all wish the average ExPo "For Sale" post would try to be about half as useful.) Good luck with the sale. There aren't very many options with this much off-road capability that are as well set up for...

Thanks. It's working out very well. I'm going to add a hinged section to the front of the bench so that tall guys like you can fit better. :)

I just came across this while posting about my Wrangler camper. Thanks for the great documentation of your impressive build. Let me know should you ever need help or an overnight driveway in the Portland area. Mike

It occured to me that my interior photos might be more helpful if I showed what lurked behing the zebrawood . . . Three water Rotopaxs, 5-gallon bucket with a gamma seal lid that serves as the loo, and a black plastic "toilet seat" that kinda works. Here's the genuine Aspenora fridge. Never...

The wood veneer (zebrawood) is the indeed the same species as Paul put into my first #003 interior. Then, when he did his own interior, he decided to honor tradition by using zebrawood again. Then when I did my interior, I thought hard about changing to something more mainstream, but decided who...

As promised, I managed to get some reasonable photos of the interior. The lighting isn't great--where's Paul and his camera/talent when you need it?--but they'll likely serve. (The task got a lot more plausible when I realized that I could take the wider-angle photos if I stood on a ladder and...

Thanks for the interest, folks. I've got some interior shots, but they are pretty lame because it's hard to photograph a five-foot long cabin when you can only get about four feet away. It'll take a little work on your part to figure out how things go together. :) The spare tire is, indeed, a...

TAH-DAH . . . After about 2.5 years, I’ve completed yet another revision of my endlessly-revised Earthroamer XV-JP #003. This is Version 5. :rolleyes: Faithful readers—assuming there might be a couple of you left after all these years—will recall that Paul Jensen and his wife (unshockingly)...

Let me know if you find anything of this sort. It might be just enough bigger to carry the day. BTW, I suspect that you already check: https://expeditionmeister.com/expedition-overland-for-sale but I've seen Maltecs and similar listed here. Good luck.

I've been in the rig and watched the build develop, and I don't know that there's any way the result could be better. I saw that a lot of time, research and money went into building this as best as Jeremy thought it could be done. Some people understandably like to put the time and extra money...

Here's some more photos, for whatever they might be worth . . .

Sold 6/7/22. Thanks for your interest. =============== I have an out-of-service, lightly used OzTent/Rhino-Rack Foxwing awning that some overland/expedition/vanlife type should be able to make good use of. It was on the XV-JP I now re-own for over a decade, but probably hasn't actually been...

Sold to a very nice local guy with a nice older LCruiser.

I lowered the price 20%, though I doubt that preposterous pricing is the major impediment here. :)
