I like it. At a guess it was a furniture van or similar high volume application and was converted to a motor home.
Ditto. I write this while sitting in our raised-roof Promaster van.
That’s correct Joe. Back in the days, integral bodies for hauling furniture were often rolling on a bus chassis (hence the letter B).
The full designation and registration of this specific chassis is DAF B1100DA406. Here’s another one, a compact 1964 coach, body by Smit Joure.
Very very cool….
Love it. Now, get t block aa tackle so that we can get the piano into the apartment on the third flood!
Nice find Johannes. Brings to mind the old mid-1950’s Fageol Super Freighter van…

Right Jim, that’s the same idea.
