Hello everyone! Name is Billy Ackerman and I’m working on a new 136 HR Promaster Van project.
My vision is the ultimate kitesurfing and gear-hauling travel machine. This is defiantly the place for inspiration and advice which is why I’m here. Let the build talk begin.
I’ve started with the roof racks, building a cargo style double hoop basket 10’ long x 5’ wide utilizing the 6x factory attachment points. No holes in the roof which I like. The entire rack is aluminum with a diamond stamped solid floor. Going to add 2x removable cross bars for the larger SUP Raceboards. I'm having a local business in Jacksonville Beach, FL do all the aluminum work.
Rack is sent to powercoat and will be installed next week, chose to go with a matte satin black with a subtle texture like the plastic bumpers...
More to come.
