History of this truck :
Former 8-person workshop and transport truck for high-voltage power line maintenance in France.
It was modified into a 2-person expedition vehicle in 2012. And made 1 tour of the Americas. The next owner had it transported again to South America to spend 3 months of the year traveling. I bought it at the beginning of 2023 and started using it in July 2023.
When I bought it in 2023, several hundred modifications were made in Colombia between March and July 2023. The workshop made a 4-page report of the modifications made. The entire interior of the cell was dismantled to completely rebuild this part and modify the layout, adapting it for a family of 3.
The main modifications were :
Reinforcement of the subframe on the chassis with the addition of body torsion springs
Complete waterproofing of the roof with full fiberglass covering
The interior of the cell is completely covered with fiberglass on walls and ceiling.
New walls and furniture. Kitchen with custom-made stainless steel plate
New installation of functional equipment (hob, diesel heater)
Electricity all new with Victron appliances and cables + electrical panel. It’s a 110v installation.
– 2 AGM batteries for a total of 600 amp
– Fridge 110v 90liters
Closure of the space between cab and cell to create a garage for storage of the 2 spare wheels and a long aluminum ladder to the cell. This garage remains open at the top to catch the light from the 2 front windows of the cell.
