When it comes to camper conversions, the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter is a popular starting point due to its great handling, versatile interior layout, and available four-wheel drive. While it’s certainly possible to take a Sprinter down dirt roads and some slightly rough terrain, its out-of-the-box design limits just how far you can travel into parts unknown. Thankfully, there are companies like Rogue Van Company (RVC) that can build these amazing vans into some hardcore off-road camping machines, if you'd like your Sprinter 4x4 a little less hinged. Rogue's latest project demonstrates just how far the Sprinter can be pushed; here's a closeup look at its camper van's off-road upgrades:

JConcepts continues to re-write the script when it comes to off-road body design, development, and styling. It is difficult to find a more successful body shell than the F2 design by the creators from Groveland, Florida. As the popularity grows of the Schumacher Cat L1R, JConcepts set off to incorporate all the functionality of the IFMAR World Championship winning shell and wrapped it around the newest dynamo from Schumacher Racing. The exclusive composition of the cab, extra rear windows, louvered roof all tied together with Finnisher “V” configuration makes the F2 a classic performer.

UpGrade RC is releasing a series of more than two dozen uniquely designed chassis protectors for the ARRMA™ Kraton 6S and Typhon Grom vehicles. Each protective sheet is made from a thick 12ml laminate with a strong adhesive vinyl backing, precisely cut to fit the respective model’s dimensions for a professional appearance while safeguarding the chassis. Ideal for both new and used chassis, these sheets prevent scratches and scrapes, extending the chassis’ lifespan. Additionally, the vinyl protector creates a smooth surface along the chassis, reducing friction with the ground, which helps the vehicle slide more easily and maintain momentum during hard landings.

There’s nothing more exhilarating than the throaty sounds of a vintage Trans-Am racer carving its way through a road course as it downshifts into the legendary corkscrew at Laguna Seca Raceway. The scent of race fuel and rubber adds to the adrenalin rush that leaves an indelible mark on anyone who has experienced it. That passion inspired Steve Ramsey of Fallston, Maryland, to create that combination of vintage looks and potent performance in this wicked ’63 Ford Falcon GT. The Falcon’s diminutive size made it a perfect model to transform into a modern-day Trans-Am-style asphalt-burner by packing every inch of it with a speed shop’s-worth of go-fast goods and making it ferocious on the street, road course, or even the dragstrip, while delivering plenty of dependability.

The Camaro Z/28 nameplate has made believers out of onlookers since Chevrolet slapped the Z/28 "Special Performance Package" sales code to its Mustang-slayer in 1966. There were persistent rumors of an all-new Z/28 Camaro based on the sixth-generation model that ended production in 2024, but the car gods had other plans.

When Bill Mitchell became the VP of GM’s Styling Section, he wanted to escape the shadow of the outgoing VP Harley Earl. Earl had been a trendsetter, the first person to use modeling clay in the development and mock-up of new models, the first to integrate car hoods and fenders, and the first GM exec to use concept cars as his personal daily drivers. To make his own mark, Mitchell began by designing a modern personal luxury coupe that eventually became the Buick Riviera.

Among the many unique and interesting models Ford has sold in North America over the years, the Merkur XR4Ti certainly ranks near the top, even if it is just a European Ford Sierra XR4Ti converted for sale in the U.S. After selling quite well early on, the Merkur XR4Ti wound up falling out of favor ahead of its final year on sale in America back in 1989, but we still see nice examples pop up for sale from time to time. That’s certainly the case with this 1985 Merkur XR4Ti, but it’s also a far cry from stock.
