Traveling
This young couple from Nottingham, UK, built an amazing home for themselves converting an old truck. Their job involves a lot of travel, which is why this old truck was their best choice.
Martin and Iona
Martin got had first thought of this idea, to buy a big American RV. When he shared the idea with his better half, Iona she too was ready for the plan.
eBay
The couple went on eBay and found a truck. It first used as a delivery truck and was up for £3,600 (approximately $4,670). They knew this was what they had wanted.
They Split their work
But it was not an easy task to get the truck rolling with a livable surrounding. They decided to split their work and Martin was working on most of the laboring while Iona was taking care of the interior design.
They worked full time...
Martin and Iona worked on the project full-time and it took them months to complete the entire project. But the results were worth every time that they spent making it.
£20,000 (about $25,900).
The Hovis Delivery Truck was used for traveling and living, which makes it an awesome combination to fall for. The renovation of the truck cost them, £20,000 (about $25,900).
Accommodation
This will help them save money on accommodation while traveling through Europe. It is the perfect example of 'don't judge a book by its cover'.
Cozy and comfortable
Although it looks amazing from the inside, it is quite normal on the outside. The inside of the truck looks quite cozy and comfortable.
This is what Martin said about his home project,
“About four years ago after a few too many beers, I thought about buying a big American RV. We bought the lorry in May this year. "
He added,
"We spent four months working on it full-time. We are really lucky to not have to work and we did everything ourselves. It’s amazing what you can do. We are not exactly slumming itâ€
