It was a US military command post. The aft cabin is insulated, soundproofed and … explosion-proof
The alternator produces 12v and 24v.
Originally at the back there is a huge converter which produced 110volt and 220volt which we have withdrawn, which we will replace because the original one was much too large and energizing.
The conversion
Within it, we have removed 90% of the military equipment. On the other hand, we wanted to keep a memory in honor of the primary vocation of the truck. In this sense, we have kept the tactical lighting (black-out light) and the black anti-glare screens for the windows.
The landscaping began by adding a vapor barrier to the floor (which already has 3 inch thick insulation) over which we added another insulation, followed by plywood to install the EcoFlooring flooring.
Then the vehicle was painted, the
Benches for the table were custom made. This bench and table set can be transformed to become a bed for guests.
The main bed, is a Murphy bed that will drop down from the ceiling to leave a large mattress for two people.
