In Brief

A homemade camper based on a PAZ-3206 bus with a Toyota 3UZ-FE engine is for sale in Russia, while Omsk Avtodom has built a camper on a Toyota Land Cruiser 70 chassis for -45°C to +40°C.

Two unusual camper conversion projects have emerged in Russia.

The first is a homemade motorhome based on a four-wheel-drive PAZ-3206 bus. It replaces the standard engine with a 4.3-liter Toyota 3UZ-FE, produced from 2000 to 2013. Inside, it features a double bed, kitchen, and dining area. The vehicle is listed for sale.

The second project is a self-propelled camper on a Toyota Land Cruiser 70 chassis, built by Omsk Avtodom. The living module accommodates three people and operates in temperatures from -45°C to +40°C. It comes with all-wheel drive, two winches, differential locks, two 90-liter fuel tanks, and a cargo trailer.
