This site describes the van known as Shabazan – The build, some of the travels, and a few things I learned along the way.
What’s up with the van’s name – Shabazan?
- My first camper van was named by my (then not yet) father-in-law.
- It’s an abbreviation of a mobile service.
- He approved of his daughter marrying me anyway.
How long did it take to do your build?
I’m still not done after (fill in the blank since 2021) years. However, I was on the road with all basic components after about 2 months calendar time, or about 80 hours of work time.
It doesn’t look too fancy. What’s up?
My design philosophy is to keep everything simple, practical and inexpensive.
