I would go to some local shows and ask some handlers if you can see how their vehicle is set up. Most folks get a van or RV and customize it themselves, depending on their needs. There are some show dog lists on Yahoo, and occasionally someone will post a van or RV for sale. I think there is a Yahoo list for dog showing equipment, as well. If you join local clubs and network with folks, eventually you will be in the right place at the right time.

I feel for you I have the same problem.
All the people I know buy a van and customize it. If you have a lot of money you can take it to a company that specializes on it or if you have somebody that can do it for you (to your specifications) that is a lot cheaper,
I know that some people who got their van kitted out with 4 big crates and the whole shebang paid about 1500 pounds for it !! A lot of dosh.
Try to find a van first and then take it from there. Or have a look at this

first off how many dogs do you plan to show at a show and are you going to have help? most exhibitors have regular vans, mini vans but i wouldn't go into much expense until you know it is something you really want to continue doing, most exhibitors don't make it past 5 yrs. the van will need to fit your crates, grooming tables, grooming supplies, dog food and all, cart to carry all tour grooming stuff and crates if you have small dogs, suite case, show clothes ( if you are at a show away from home ). most people just stay in motels when the show is away from home unless you have a trailer or RV then you can stay on the show grounds.
you can set up grooming tables and your crates around the ring. i would go to a show before if you can so you get a good idea of what you will need to do. good luck

You could look for a grooming van. It will have a place to groom your dogs and board your dogs while traveling. This link may help.
