If you’ve ever dreamed of converting a van into a camper, let me tell you—it’s not all sunshine, neatly organized toolboxes, and smooth progress. No, it’s a battlefield filled with stubborn screws, mystery leaks, and a whole lot of “why did I think this was a good idea?” moments.
Welcome to my latest adventure, where I attempt to transform a Mercedes Sprinter 313 into a cozy camper. The video takes you through the first major step: ripping up the floor to see what horrors lie beneath. Spoiler alert—there are plenty.
What to Expect in This Episode 🚐🔧
- A top-secret work location (okay, it’s just around Carl’s house, but let me dream).
- The absolute nightmare of removing floor screws that refuse to budge.
- A surprising amount of WD-40 mishaps—including some questionable lubricant discussions.
- The classic van-builder dilemma: Is this rust a problem, or am I just being paranoid?
- Brute force, sheer determination, and one man’s refusal to be defeated by his own van.
- A guest appearance by John from John’s Travels, lending a helping hand (or at least moral support).
Why You Should Watch 🎥
This isn’t your polished, HGTV-style van conversion. This is the raw reality of a DIY van build—messy, frustrating, and filled with unexpected challenges. If you enjoy watching someone fumble through a project with a mix of dry humor, mild despair, and ultimate triumph (kind of), this video is for you.
