My name is Chrome Valdez and this is The Chrome Project— The ever evolving project of my life. I have shared every aspect of my van life...from starting out broke in a low roof van, to now having a shop and living in my dream van. Van life changed has allowed me to not pay rent and put that rent money to building a great life for myself. So THE RIDE CONTINUES, everything from working on projects at my shop, travelling on my camper van and Playing in the dirt. This is a no-BS take on life living in a van—Welcome to The Chrome Project: No script, Just life.
