He converted a Cargo Van in Basically the best thing ever -

When the user Reddit zachboth quit his job in 2014, he knew he wanted to pursue his passion - the movie theater. Knowing that the life of a videographer rather nomadic, he decided that the life and work of van seemed ideal.

But friends, if you think he just bought a camper boring and left at that, you are sorely mistaken.

After purchasing the van, he emptied the entire thing. A little less than a year later, he was left with a masterpiece that even those of us with houses and comfortable apartments will be jealous of ...

Here is what he had to work with ... a Chevy van 03 with over 0,000 miles on it.
