The DIY conversion shell — Outside Van's lowest-cost head start for owners who want to finish the build themselves.
Baseline is Outside Van's honest entry point and the only affordable door into the brand: a professionally prepped conversion shell that the company describes as your head start into building your own adventure van. Be very clear about what it is and is not. Baseline gives you Outside Van's hard structural work done right — insulation, sound damping, precision-cut panels, lighting, powered venting, dimmable lights, electrical infrastructure and wire passthroughs, safety equipment, and a removable three-panel bed — on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 144 or 170 diesel in 4WD or AWD with a high roof. What it intentionally does not include is the expensive, complicated finishing: no power system, no heating, and no water system. Those you design and install yourself, which is exactly the point — you skip the hardest technical groundwork and keep full control (and cost) of the interior. Pricing reflects that split mission: it starts around $89,000 on a 144 and $110,000 on a 170, chassis included, far below the roughly $235,000 signature models. The honest caution is that Baseline is for capable DIY builders, not buyers who want a turnkey camper — budget time, skill, and additional money to finish it. For hands-on owners who want the brand's structural quality and a 4x4/AWD Sprinter to build out on their own terms, Baseline is the smart, lower-cost foundation.
