Picture No. 11772293 takes us back to the Epsom Derby in 1954, where a Volkswagen VW Camper Van served as a versatile mode of transportation for race enthusiasts. But it doesn't stop there. Witness the ingenuity behind a Mobile Butchers Shop, ensuring fresh produce reaches every corner. The French army's mobile dental surgery showcases their commitment to providing healthcare on-the-go. For those seeking adventure, hop aboard the U. S. S. Alabama Battleship Museum or embark on road trips with the iconic Volkswagen VW Classic Camper. These vehicles have become symbols of freedom and exploration.
