    Hotshot Buggy Camper 2002 7.3L 4x4

    A couple of other odds and ends. I put together a rough kitchen, closest, and part of the dinette. Please note these are far from finished and are just to provide some basic living structures until I have time to do a proper build. I tossed five 210watt solar panels on the roof. My plan is to...

    Hotshot Buggy Camper 2002 7.3L 4x4

    For whatever reason, they built these rigs above the wheel wells. so it looks like it would be tall inside but the reality is the standing room was 5'6". If I was going to live in this rig I needed to be able to stand. I decided I would undertake raising the roof. It involved a ******** ton of weld...

    Hotshot Buggy Camper 2002 7.3L 4x4

    The faded yellow from being left in the Arizona sun really bothered me so one of the first tasks I took on was painting it with bed liner. It was a TON of prep. I know they always say that but you don't realize it until you start. I thought 16 containers would be enough but I ran out and the...

    I purchased a retired hotshot buggy before my last wildland fire season (not a hotshot) as my new home on wheels. I've put some work in it to get it livable although most of the progress will be put on hold until I'm done with my last year of schooling. I'll post some photos of the progress as...

    Ram 5500 Fire Crew Carrier Overlanding Camper Build

    Yes! I bought one of three that were moved up to Bend Oregon. It's unfortunate how close it is to be able to stand up in these rigs for the amount of work it will take to correct it. I love the look of the departure angle. I think spraying it will do a ton for the aesthetics. What PSI did you...

    Ram 5500 Fire Crew Carrier Overlanding Camper Build

    I just wanted to give props and a big thanks for this thread. I just picked up one of those 2002 7.3L BLM Buggys. It has been a great inspiration seeing your rig. I'll be welding an aluminum high top and raptor lining mine soon. Maybe in a year, I'll drop the cash for the super singles.
