Vanworks We build, rent, and sell camper vans ๐Ÿš ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ
Based in Northern Colorado since 1978 Our fearless leader, Keith Hess, was a carpenter by trade.

He always enjoyed buying and selling cars and motorcycles as a hobby. One day he decided to buy a used van, fix it up, and sell it. Well it sold much faster than he thought it would, so he started only doing van conversions, one at a time. After having a lot of success, he eventually rented out a shop in Fort Collins (whereโ€™s Blackโ€™s Glass is today), hired a crew, and started the Vanworks we know today. In the hay day of vans in the 80s and 90s, Vanworks was producing over 200 Vans and Truck conversions PER MONTH. Back then there were 1000s of competing van converters, but after a big shake up in the market with changing rules from the manufactures (GM, Dodge, Ford, etc), most couldnโ€™t compete any longer but we remained. As the market changes, as customer needs change, we change to meet those demands and build what people want and what they need.

We've been building vans since 1978. That doesn't mean we're done finding ways to make them better.

Youโ€™re in good hands.

Barry grew up around van conversion builders, learning the craft long before helping customers design their own. Today, he brings that experience to your build and helps you find your footing once youโ€™re out on the road.

A van with some get up and go that doesnโ€™t ask much in return.

The Switchback Transit has room to sleep four, a practical kitchen, and space flexible enough to pad out your weekend without much hassle.

Wrangle up the crew and take the long way home.
