1. How much can you get for your vehicle today? It would make a great work truck for a builder.
2. I so much more favor a Diesel Sprinter as your starting point as myself and others have been leading to towards.
Will you ever get it this nice?

No, but it can be a nicer end product with less effort and money than if you start with your ambulance.

Hello, Im selling my 2013 177" extended wheel base sprinter van. This van is in great shape and has never let me down. It has 231,624 miles all of those miles are strictly freeway miles as I drive to Missouri very often. The inside of the van is already insulated and upholstered. The van holds a clean title as it has never been in any kind of accident. The check engine light is on, and I have been told by a mechanic that it is the DEF system which I never had the time to repair and was quoted $1000 to fix it. I am the original owner from 2013 and have taken care of it very well.

Oh my God, 400,000 miles................dang, those other ones at 250k are just babies.
What a mule that thing is, in a good way.
The artwork I would do for one of these Diesel Sprinters would be far less involving, that much alone tells you what a superior starting point they are.
The 8-point list would be down to less than half.
Chin spoiler, rear box cavity baffles and pizza pan wheel covers with zip ties - DONE!
