We convert a old rusty van into a Luxury Camper with beginner skills: Watch the full van build Timelapse of Our Mercedes Vario 614D minibus from start to finish. Subscribe HERE: We'll cover everything from stripping out the van to modifying our Mercedes Vario to fit our needs. By the end of the video, you'll have an idea of the work and skills we learnt from scratch to build the van - We knew nothing before this and we are by no means experts, but love to learn and now love DIY! We converted our van into a camper over two years: We show the main steps we took to convert our Mercedes Vario minibus into a tiny home. But we also have over 100 videos that detail what we did and how we did it. It would've been hours long to include every single step we did, so this vid is just a flavour.
