1970 KVD 441-B "Tjorven" Kalmar-DAF for @jobjoris' #workhorseweek. 2170 Tjorvens were built 1968-1971 in Kalmar (Sweden), mainly for the Swedish post, based on the DAF 44 (with Variomatic). The photos were taken this August in the really nice Tjorven Café & Museum (@tjorven_cafe_och_museum) in Rockneby north of Kalmar, where the Tjorvens were built. Excellent food and service too!

🚐Stopped and saw my DREAM Vehicle last night!🚐 I've FOREVER been in love with this!😍😍💚😍😍 One of these days I'm going to OWN it! 💚 Here's Wikipedia lesson⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇⬇ ✴The Kalmar KVD440/441, also variously known as Tjorven or DAF Kalmar, is a delivery van based on the DAF 44, made in Sweden. The vehicle inherited the air-cooled, 844cc boxer engine and Variomatic transmission from the DAF 44. In the mid-sixties the then Postverket(Swedish Mail) needed a new vehicle for mail delivery, and contacted Kalmar Verkstad, who developed and built it between 1969 and 1971. On the export market it was simply called Kalmar. In addition to the generous heating provided by the air-cooled engine, to provide appropriate heating for postmen, some units were fitted with a gasoline-powered Eberspächer heater under the driver's seat, with a dedicated exhaust pipe. "Tjorven" was a nickname given to the Kalmar as its rather frumpy appearance was reminiscent of a contemporary Swedish television character of that name. It was RHD for easy driver access to road side letter boxes, frame-built with a fiberglassbodywork. ✴The name "Tjorven" comes from a popular Swedish family show on television in the early 1960s. Based on a script by the Swedish author Astrid Lindgren, the story is about a number of characters living in the archipelago outside Stockholm. A central character is a plump and sunny little girl nicknamed Tjorven. In the movies of Saltkråkan the character was portrayed by Swedish actress Maria Johansson. ✴Astrid Anna Emilia Lindgren (born Ericsson; Swedish: [ˈastrɪd ˈlɪŋɡreːn] (listen); 14 November 1907 – 28 January 2002) was a Swedish writer of fiction and screenplays. She is best known for children's book series featuring Pippi Longstocking, Emil i Lönneberga, Karlsson-on-the-Roof, and the Six Bullerby Children (Children of Noisy Village in the US), as well as the children's fantasynovels Mio, My Son, Ronia the Robber's Daughter, and The Brothers Lionheart. #TheKalmarKVD440441  #Tjorven #DAFK #astridlindgren #pippilongstocking #ilovepippilongstocking #dontmindme #justdorkingouthere #theheartwantswhatitwants #futurebabysittingbydaniellemobile #babysittingbydanielle👶👧👶 (at Washington Court House, Ohio)
