This truck build series documents the complete conversion of a blank truck into a custom adventure vehicle, covering design, fabrication, electrical, living space, and life on the road This episode sees us continuing the 8x8 off-grid overland truck build with some satisfying progress — Starting to fix the first stud work for the bathroom and toilet and laying our first finishing wall panel in the shower area. We also take delivery of our Mad motorbike crane and borrow a neighbour's JCB to get it installed into our truck.
