Hey All, after 42 years of Hollywood production madness (and sanity), I am calling it quits and selling off a few items I won’t need any longer. One of them is my trusty Mercedes Sprinter 2500 van. I am unable for some reason to upload more than one picture attachment here, but click on this external link to view a photo album online - https://photos.app.goo.gl/vzdHZAbiEforYizm9.
This van is in perfect drive-off condition to travel anywhere in North America today. Here are the basics;
2004 Mercedes Sprinter 2500 high top with 171K miles which I am the second owner having bought it in 2006. I have used it as a camera van and DIT van - sometimes both on many productions around the USA. 171K miles might seem high - for a gas engine, but this is a Mercedes Diesel engine which can run up to 1000K miles and many older tradesmen usage Sprinters make it to that mark. This van gets a consistent 23+ MPG even fully loaded.
Location; Los Angeles/So. California region
Basic features;
New tires, new brakes, rooftop air conditioner, AC inputs, DC/AC Inverter
Custom interior features;
Metal storage racks and drawers
AC/DC Inverter (heavy duty)
AC inputs for air conditioner & inverter systems
Wheel well boot flat areas
Metal driver/cargo area divider with door
Cable pass through boxes
Computer laptop tray
Interior roof insulation
Backup camera
USB input for car charging and radio connection
Electric door locks all doors
Chapman brand alarm system
Mechanical;
5-cylinder in-line Mercedes Diesel engine. This diesel uses the earlier catalytic converter smog system for California and not the newer more complex and unreliable DEF system of newer diesels - a big plus. AC blows cold, heater works fine. It has cruise control for long drives, auto transmission. I can supply at least 10 years of service records detailing all repairs made, I have kept this vehicle in perfect working order since the day I bought it as you would expect from a production reliability standpoint.
Before I list this vehicle with all it’s production-centric features to the general public on AutoTrader or other methods, perhaps someone in the film production community might be looking for just such a customized work vehicle, so I’m posting it here first.
Asking $17,500
I have pink slip and current California registration and smog certificate.
The vehicle is available to test drive and checkout in the general Los Angeles area
