British carpenter Guy Williams converted a 2002 Ford Iveco Cargo truck into a mobile home. In 12 weeks, he created a living space with a kitchen, bathroom, two bedrooms, and a hidden jacuzzi under the floor. The vehicle is a 7.5-ton truck, requiring a C-class license and limiting its use on regular roads. The Val project is not designed for frequent travel due to high energy consumption and insulation challenges.
