One book. Three guides. Years of methods, materials, and mistakes, distilled into reading you can finish in an evening.
Wheelhouse is my complete guide to building and selling vans. Platform selection, materials, design planning, building techniques, investment optimization, and marketing, plus the entrepreneur’s side that ties it together.
Building for yourself or flipping for profit, it’s the handbook I wish I’d had when I started.
Reader reviews
I’m reading your book and I absolutely love it. We have very similar stories because I also got into the campervan business after taking a nine month trip all around Australia. That journey taught me so much and when I came back, without even realizing it would turn into a business, I started building and converting vans into campervans. It doesn’t feel like work at all, it’s something I genuinely love doing
I stumbled upon Abbe’s Instagram just as she made the decision to fly cross country and purchase the yellow foundation to her original Luna van. Her content is honest, self deprecating, inspiring, funny, and motivating. Her book amplifies each of those attributes ten fold. Abbe proves that combining passion with a financially tuned mindset can still be the cornerstone of the next billion dollar empire. I am certainly rooting for her. Read this book!
Hey Abbe, I wanted to reach out and say I finished your book. Thank you for all your insight to your process and how you started. After finishing it back in February, I started to rethink my entire approach and after a few months of building, I wanted to say thank you for being inspirational to me and my journey. 🙏🫶
