It was imported directly from Japan and is currently available for sale.
You are looking for the perfect base to build a Toyota Hiace customized camper. This might be the right example, and it is currently available for sale.
The 1996 Toyota Himedic Ambulance, which is currently on Ottoex, begs for conversion into a motorhome. The van’s high roof is equipped with a V8 engine that runs on all four paws. This makes it an ideal base for a camper that can take to the trails.
The listing states that this Toyota Himedic Ambulance, the highest-of-the line model, was never made available to Japanese private customers. Only government entities can purchase it. There were only 1,200 of them produced between 1994 and 2000. The new unit sold for $230,000, with medical equipment.
The 4.0-liter 1UZFE gasoline V8 engine, which powers the Lexus LS400 and SC400 as well as the Toyota Crown, is included in the price. It boasts 261 horsepower (192 Kilowatts), making it one of the most powerful vans in the 1990s. It’s easy to find parts, since the engine and drivetrain are easily available in North America.
The van is 17.5 feet long and 8 feet high, so there’s plenty of space. The van comes with sirens and working molded roof lights. We don’t think you will need any other ambulatory equipment, except for oxygen tanks.
It is available for purchase at $34,995 for the V8-powered 1996 Toyota Himedic Ambulance. It is ready to go for any off-grid adventure.
