#Wheelchairvanlife

The incredible story of a quadriplegic man who built the campervan of his dreams! And yes, it's fully wheelchair accessible with driving capabilities, transfer options, and more!

Loren takes us on a tour of his $160k handicap accessible sprinter van conversion. As a C56 quadriplegic, he wasn't going to let his disability get in the way of he and his wife's vanlife dream. He even built the entire van dwelling himself, with the help of another wheelchair bound friend. So this van was built by by the disabled, for the disabled, and will shine a new light on what is possible in tiny space design.
