Julian bought this super stealthy 1999 Ford E-150 pop top campervan to use for rock climbing trips and as a mobile home & office when he’s doing freelance photography contracts.

The van has a pop top which is fairly rare on Ford E-150 vans, but it allows him to stand up in the van when he’s parked to make chores like cooking and making the bed more comfortable. Or for stretching after a long day of photo editing.

The van has a furnace, ice box, water tank, kitchenette and a bed. The front passenger seat swivels to provide extra seating space in the “living room.”
