- I am so excited to share this incredibly unique build with you. I can tell that Phil has put a TON of time and effort into this project and from what I have seen, it seems like the $35,000 asking price is more than reasonable. Click the link below to contact and/or follow through Instagram!

Absolutely love this. The price is fair. I'm gonna be jealous of the lucky buyer who gets this gem.
I mean it could have 200k miles on it. That would be a ridiculous price in that case
Those 3.4s with even just a little bit of love can go 300,000-500,000 miles from experience and a swap for a replacement engine was about $3,500. With this the main money is the whole configuration and it’s pretty reasonable, especially when that restored 1978 chinook sold for $53,000 recently. I think it’s fair to ask $20,000 less for this one.
HOLY SMOKES! I have a Newport in storage and wanted to do something similar to my tacoma. It's beautiful.
Love seeing what’s out there and how creative people can be!
This camper shell was originally designed for a Toyota pick up chassis and it was a one piece fiberglass molded piece. It had a small Porta potty in the rear area. It was called a Chinook Omega and was sold through RV dealers where the original pop top Toyota Chinook was sold through Toyota dealers. It was made in LaVerne, CA. We also made one under contract for Chevy, the Blazer Chalet which was a pop top version that fit onto the back of the Blazer and it looked a lot like this Tacoma unit. However, we made it a pop top and included a porta potty. The pop top design significantly improve the gas mileage when on the road and gave the user a lot more head room when the top was up.
What goes around, comes around but sometimes the original is still better than a knock off....😀
I like this conversion, everything neatly done.
Nice looking rig. I love the wood floor and ceiling.
Love it. Been following him on Instagram for a while. I have a Chinook newport on the original 78 hilux. The frame is rotted and I hope to put the camper body on something else some day!
Chinook was ahead of the game back in the day! It's a shame they went out of business. Someone will be lucky to travel around in this piece of work!
What engine? How many miles on it? Those will greatly affect the value.
WOW , GREAT JOB !
Where would you go first in this modern vintage beast?!
Denali, good bye.
The Grand Canyon
Map, dart and a blind fold.
Your property and never leave 😆
Anywhere you want to go! Just come to Colorado! hehehe
Love it. Just not $35k worth.
Agreed, not very good attention to detail, uneven boards, unfinished cuts, exposed expanding foam, etc. just not worth that kind of money, maybe $12,000
I like the cedar how's your JEEP ?????
Love this build! I have a ‘77 chinook and plan to swap it into a newer Toyota 4x4 chassis soon.
I liked this alot you should do more videos like this!!! 👍
Dude that’s awesome I think the way your collaborating is great bro
That this is beautiful
Whoa! That’s awesome!
Another great video watching from Kuwait
Cool!!!! What kind of fuel mileage does it get?
Lots of work! Nice job!
Overall love the idea - The exterior looks great.... Not sure about the suspension choices but looks like it'll do the job - The interior work isn't great, that usually looks great on screen but in person things jump out at you so when things jump out at you on screen that's not great. Obviously don't know the story, maybe he built it for himself but now needs $ - If he intended to sell from the jump it would be an easier sell if the interior wasn't built out but that's just my opinion....
I like that it's a manual
Eager to check out your BISON completed!
I love this idea. Not my favorite camper shell, and I am sure this guy's efforts are well worth whatever amount he is asking, but I am not so impressed with his format or attention to small details. A lot of ruff edges. Still, really cool!
I'd like the exterior and the overall idea. I'm not a fan of a split mattress so those type beds don't really work for me. Overall though it's a nice build
Looks cool. Few things id change. Id relocate the spare tire to the rear.. not underneath. Also.. id make a bed up top instead of it being all open. Other then that.. its a cool rig.
DIG IT!!!!
Channel title change to Down for Virtual Hand Jobs.
Wow! 😍
That thing is so cool
Make sure the vehicle weight limits are all ok.
Ask any pilot about weights and balance!
❤ it.
thank you Phils. lol
Hello. Have a safe blessed day! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I would definitely buy that for that price.
I really like this
That is nice
That thing is pretty cool..... its worth every penny...... go try and buy a new setup like that. Some thing I'd deffinatly upgrade and or finish, like reinforcing the frame and crossmembers and finishing the trim in the cab.
The only thing that I don't like is the Velcro shades to be placed on the windows. I would've used magnets easier to use. Other than nice setup, ohh and I like that home made turn table using pipes.
Very cool!
I like how he showed us the same cabinet and pull out drawer twice when he said there’s lots of storage. Not to nitpick but I feel like the over head section of the camper that leads into the cab is wasted space. I will say that the interior is beautiful but theres no real storage for pantry items, clothing, camping gear, etc, there’s no outdoor shower, or any cooking facilities, and no place to put a composting toilet for those who would want something like that. Not knowing what type of engine or how many miles the vehicle has is the ultimate factor on price. $35,000 is way too much money for an after market built out camper truck. You can buy a nice vehicle and build it out yourself for the same price or for cheaper while being able to custom tailor the rig to you’re own personal specifications. It’s definitely nice looking but it’s no where near worth $35,000 in my opinion.
Where’s the stove?
It seems odd to have that front ledge around where a bed should be! First thing I would do is build a bed up front. I would also put in a stove for those rainy days! Also an awning would be nice! I agree with another viewer that the leaf springs look awful tired! My wife would need drapes on all the windows. Who wants Velcro other than really cold temps. Ya a heater would be needed as well! After all that then maybe it would be worth what he’s asking!
It’s cool but for the 35k the build quality is just not there. Still would love to have it!
How is the frame on it. Did it qualify for a recall on the frame?
Love the big open windows with Velcro lined covers. Beautiful wood too. I just wonder about the weight load and price is a wee bit high, but nice looking rig.
Well' I would have more negative (constructive) things to say than positive on this build at that price range. Then again on a DIY you can go thought 2 to 3 versions of a rig as you learn what works and what needs adjusting as you use (abuse) it. I would call this the first version. I do like your creativity on the floor storage right behind the seats.
Your name is Phil and his name is Phil... hah thats pretty NEAT!!
Nice build. So much not said. Engine, mileage, insulation.....
Hehe, the thumbnail invokes images from Motorweeks Retro Reviews 📺
all the extra weight and this is 3mph on any given hill.
It's not bad for D.i.y. job. Some things need a little updating someone can finish it off but for a little less than 35k .just my opinion.
The rig was cool buuutttt
Where does the poop go?
How much it’s the total weight now
siiick rig and video, a little too glampy for my taste, but beautiful nonetheless
Not bad for a 20 year old pickup conversion with a tiny sink and a cooler?
its cool but 35 000 no way.
bring it to europe and sell it for 35k...euro minimum
I know those tacomas have very weak frames.
That must ride like dookie. Shocks are way to inboard and shackle angle looks less then 15 degrees. Probably should have a rear sway bar too
35000 lol NOPE
you could build one on your own by putting in a ton of your time and a little bit less money, maybe.
@@Down2Mob, if you can find the shell you're still more than 35k from a fit overlander.
it's overpriced. new shit. get a 4x4 pickup and camper. done. quit your hype
Those leaves are fucked i own a 2001 hilux to much weight for that space cab 35g lol
OMG so ugly. Sorry.... Toyota good topper uggh!
