Started a thread in 2017 under the M37 forum before this RV camper conversion forum existed. Would have been more appropriate here. Sea to Shining Sea's 5 year build is finally finished. Interesting read. Have a look.

Canadian M152 Camper/Bugout Mods

Been on this site for years waiting and waiting to pounce on the right M152 communications/command truck. Found an excellent condition, running, driving unit with less than 10,000 miles? in Denver, licensed and titled in Colorado. Bought it for, I believe, a song considering its condition...

Also, submitted the camper for December 2022 vehicle of the month. Would appreciate the vote!

Toilet is portable cassette. Shower is Scrubzz rinse free bath sponges. Cooking is propane on a Camp Chef stove/oven either in the camper or carried outside. Refrigerator freezer is Whynter 12v/120v. Sink has 12v pump from seven fresh water 3.5 gallon WaterBricks, 1 gray water WaterBrick. Heat is a portable Mr. Heater on propane. Power is 30 amp shore or (2) 76 AH AGM batteries or 800 wat Vamp solar panel. Everything LED. Possible generator in the future if needed for the air conditioner. The idea is to dry camp 7 days while driving to a VRBO for 7 days to clean up and restock, then repeat. Can tie down my motorcycle inside for day trips and shopping.

VRBO ?? Vacation Rental By Owner? So every other week long stop is in brick and mortar rental while you and truck recharge? Interesting concept... sounds reasonable
