📦 Converting a Postal Van into a Camper – Is it really worth it? Using a former DHL vehicle as the base for a camper? In this new series, I'll take you on my most exciting DIY project yet: the Postal Camper! 🚐📯 *In Episode 1*, I'll show you the base vehicle – a decommissioned Iveco Daily panel van – and answer the big question: Is a former Postal Van really suitable as the base for a camper? Or is the whole thing a costly mistake?
