I'm a recovering Diesel Landcruiser junkie, been off the wagon for a couple years stuck in Brooklyn, but I'm back on the west coast and ready to get into a Mercedes Camper. Either I am completely blind or again we in the states got screwed out of a vehicle the rest of the world has had for decades like the Diesel Cruisers. I'm looking for a cleanish, roadworthy, full expo or just a good base to build from.
Ideally a mid 90's Diesel 4x4 Auto ready to roll. Show me what ya got or know where its at! OBV if needs importing nothing younger than 1990.
Only caveat: no frankensteins, i went through hell with a basket case cummins 6bt cruiser build and almost died twice from the brakes failing.
Basically looking for a solid rolling chassis and body, paint doesnt matter. Looking to take it everywhere, My best friend Leaf is livin on a prayer and we're gonna cover as many miles and cross as many rivers and hopefully oceans till the wheels fall off. We'll need a bed, makeshift toilet and storage. kitchen/entertainment all optional.

We've done two trips so far in rented RV's and hes still holding on, now its time to sport our own.
Any direction greatly appreciated.
Looking to spend 10/15K, cap is 20k for the Jewel of the Nile. and 50k if Princess Diana went mudding in it.
