Anyone who has considered giving up their nine to five and hitting the road will appreciate 'The Vanual,' which provides essential information on how to create a camp van for living in.
A manual created by filmmaker Zach Both, 'The Vanual' includes information about how and why to create a camper van for living out of. The van seen here is the one customized by Both out of an old Chevrolet cargo van that has been upgraded to feature a series of touches that make it a mobile home fit for one.
Solar panels on the roof provide power for the fridge and WiFi, hinged side panels provide fresh air and privacy, and the interior space features a futon bed. 'The Vanual' provides all the nitty gritty details on how to build a camp van, but also offers moral support to help decide if it's the lifestyle for you.
