Modernizing a VINTAGE RV **** Our New Project****
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 мар 2017
- Dirtpatcheaven left a large part of themselves at DSH. A 1978 Vintage American Clipper RV, Dodge Sportsman. Danny will be modernizing it inside and reworking any operating issues with motor and transmission. The inside will be updated to modern appliances, new woodwork, electrical, plumbing and lighting. The goal is to have it solar, electric and gas where needed turning it into the ultimate bug out vehicle, a tiny house or simply a recreational vehicle.

Danny you are Amazing, 5yrs later I still watch your videos😀
My daughter just got this model. She plans to live in it full time. Cool video
Danny and Wanda are awesome
This is the best video to watch I just got a old old R. V. It’s doing run anymore I’m son is going to take everything out and try to redo it ❤❤❤👍👍👍
Danny the more I watch your channel the more I realize you truly are a modern Renaissance man. I am looking forward to seeing your progress. my dad alternated living in an rv and a boat in his retirement years. this project reminds me of things he did
Absolutely fantastic work
Danny and Wanda I love this new idea. I lived in a motorhome with my husband and 1 child for 3 years and it was perfect. I had everything we needed and it was a snap to clean. Everything has a place and every place had a thing. Very excited to see what all you do with this. Oh and my motorhome was also a Dodge and it was awesome.
I just sent a contribution through PayPal as a small token of appreciation for the many hours of free, informative, Christian entertainment you provide. My wife and I like to start each day by watching your latest RUclips video. While it's free for us, we know you have costs associated with each video, not to mention all your hard work. Danny and Wanda, your efforts are greatly appreciated, and we pray that God will continue to bless you both.
Looking forward to seeing this! I have been watching you pretty faithfully because I love learning and remembering the ways my grandmother gardened. Grandma knew best! When the videos are longer I work and listen at the same time. Thanks for all you do.
I am so glad you are going to do this project. It will be very beneficial for lots of people.
Aww this is so exciting! We have a school bus on our property that we have fixed up for our own use. We are finishing up our well house thats inside a 20 ft conex box along with the mechanicals we have our fridge, freezer, W/D, and bathroom. we are so ready to transition out there permanently. And sell our house and Be DEPT FREE!
Us, too.
That one brings me back to my old 1976 El Dorado...I loved that thing!
We r looking at older mobile homes and these videos will be great looking forward to it and yes kick starter is a good idea oceans of love from Florida
What a wonderful idea. Thanks for sharing this huge undertaking.....Blessings for a great start on this project.
Looks like a really fun project!! We can't wait to see it come along! :-) The RV has more room than it appears from the outside. It's a great layout and looks like a fantastic starting point for your remodel!
👍👌Ooh love it! Can't wait! 🤗 I absolutely love watching conversions, renovations and all kinds of building stuff... Great project. I'll be watching from start to finish 😊🚙
Just what I needed to see! We sold our house and move next month to 15 acres in east Texas. We will be living in a travel trailer until we can build a house. This will be a great series to watch. Thank you for sharing with us.
What an awesome series this is going to be!! Thank you! Thank you for sharing your talents! I am so excited to see this series develop! Great Job!
This project is like waiting on Christmas morning! I absolutely love remodel projects and am so excited about this one. I'm willing to help any way that I can.
What an exciting project! I'm looking forward to this series.
I am going to love watching this renovation! Lots of work for you and Wanda, but lots of entertaining/informative videos for us!
I will be watching. Thank You!!
We would love to see it as you work so we can Learn from the Process.
Very cool. I'm in the camp of people who is saving for land. The less I spend on housing to start out, the more land/better I can afford. I really look forward to more on this, thanks for sharing.
This is going to be exciting!! So happy for y'all! Love ya bunches!!
Wow! What a huge undertaking! I'm excited to follow you on this journey! You two amaze me... God bless you and give you strength.
Danny and Wanda, the RV project is genius! It fits perfectly withing the context of what Deep South Homestead is about. I don't think it is a stretch at all. Your audience will love it. It will broaden the appeal of the channel to a larger audience, and it hopeful will help some folks find an affordable way to escape the rat race.
subscribed - As an elderly homesteader/RVer myself, I admire the scope of your plans. You have great confidence and a comprehensive skill set from your experiences. Best of luck to you!
Welcome to Deep South. The tear out stage is in progress. Video in the next couple of days. Thanks
wow. the carpet is even on the roof. Good luck. I would love to be involved with that project. that looks like so much fun.
Lots of great remodeling ideas! Good luck to ya'll ! Kickstarter sounds great !
Ooo I can't wait to soon you install the on demand hot water heater system.
Danny & Wanda..this is going to be a great help for so many! Hope it all works our for you! Hoping all goes well for Dirt Patch Heaven!
I look forward to the new direction and adventure in bringing the RV up to date.This is not only going to be interesting but informative as well and sure hope I can learn a thing or 2 lol Thanks in advanced.
This is going to be so fun to watch!
Boy, this is going to take awhile. I can't wait to see what you do with this. It's going to be amazing I'm sure!!! And YES, I don't have much here and there. But, I did go and contribute something.
Cathy Eldrege, Just wanted to encourage you in your journey, my husband , daughter and I moved to a small acreage . We paid off our land, bought a small travel trailer and lived in it for 4 1/2 years . As we begin the building process of our home. Small 1200 square feet. That is all we needed. We first had the foundation laid, it sat that way for a while as we were determined not to go into debt. In time i begin to see the walls go up, I cried. So thankful to the Lord for making the way. Now we have a home and land paid for. I see the hand of the Lord, he knew our future and was setting us up to be able to handle what was ahead. Moving from a 18 ft. trailer to 1200 sq. ft home seemed like a mansion to us. Lol . Keep pressing on , be patient allow the good Lord to lead . He surely will. Paula
Paula Swarek Beautiful story Paula Thanks for sharing it with all of us.
Thanks man for the tour.
I got a 1980 Dodge B100 that I am doing the same kind of Reno on.
Such a Big project for me.
good luck with your renovations Danny and Wanda
Definitely interested in following your repair work. I just bought a 1993 class B camper van and am going thru all the same remodeling as you, starting with mechanical rebuild, then appliances, then cosmetics.
That's so cool Danny! Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to seeing the progress as you move forward on your project! 😊
Thanks, gonna have another video up later this week.
That's great! I have been out of work for about 4 weeks and will be at least for another 2 weeks due to a foot surgery I had to have done and have been laid up. So being that I'm a new subscriber I've been watching and trying to catch up on all you and Wanda's videos! :)
I would love to start donating for a great cause to all the hard work y'all do in creating these videos and all the wonderful tips and advice you give! Is there a way I could get your PO box?? I will also be tuning in this Saturday night if your doing another live session! :)
Southern Heart in NH
Cool!! This is going to be fun to watch!
I am excited to see how this progresses an turns out. Very cool!
After seeing what you did with that fireplace I have no doubt this will turn out nicely! Looking forward to seeing this series 😀
total gut job! how fun! can't wait to see what you come up with! 😊
Looks like it's going to be an adventurous project, looking forward to watching.
DODGE is a great start. A retro mod rv. you have a job ahead thats for sure. thank you. I will be following the remodel.
All and all for it to be 38 years old it looks good.
I love classics. This is going to be great.
I love the stove and oven....Glad that you are saving it. Ms.Dirtpatch uses it nicely. I watch Ms.J cook on it.
A VIEW IS A VIEW I'm glad too!! It would be so heartbreaking if she just went to the scrap or to someone who wouldn't give er a shot, as she was so good to us for all those miles!!
Also, hope all is well with you🙏🙏
Very true. We love saving classics. I am doing the same thing with my Jeep. It is 20 years old. I work on it a little at a time. I will see you all in it this year. I promise.
Side note. I broke my toe and will be going to the ER in the morning. It hurts like heck. Have a great weekend.
In a place like yourself. 2 weeks ago I got a 1987 converted Chev Van. It has only 34,000 miles, no rust, only thing that I can see is a broken lock in the house battery compartment. I am not mechanically inclined, going to be taking it to a shop just to look it over for things I don't understand. Please bless me with knowledge to get it right. Delaware. Thanks for sharing.
A grab bar to help steady yourself as you step out of the shower or to help pull yourself off the toilet is also nice when you're older ( or injured ).
Wooo this is going to be fun. Thumbs up and shared #119 and shared.
Looks like a fun project!
Nice. We have a similar project that our son is doing here. He's gutted it, rebuilt the engine and trannie. He's used a 3D printer to experiment making parts that are no longer available. Myself, I've been looking at some of the European designed furniture that converts to multiple uses for tiny homes. The other day, I saw a video using a European style composting toilet that can be dumped into a toilet. Have fun and best success on your new project.
Wow! With everything you have going on with your own homestead, I'm totally wowed by this new project!
Amazing!
This was started a year ago when Dirtpatcheaven came to visit. This was her RV that she traveled in. Danny wanted to remodel it for future use here on our homestead. Visitors and WWOOFers will have a place to sleep.
Deep South Homestead it just amazes me all that you two do!
Thanks against for sharing ya'lls knowledge with me!
God bless!
Sounds exciting! I look forward to watching your upcoming vids! YooHooo!
How exciting. Looking forward to the journey! I think a kickstarter would be a good idea.
Looking forward to watching this project take shape and become a reliable modern bug out vehicle.
Wow! Danny, can't wait to see this series. How do you hope to get all your supplies ? I know you and Wanda will make it happen!
This will be an awesome project. I look forward to watching the progression.
Just a note to anyone who may be interested in living in something like this on their land. Not all communities will allow it. My sister tried living in a camper on their own land while her and her husband were building their house. The town soon put a stop to it. :( So before you buy land with the intention of putting a camper on it, check the communities regulations.
Good point. Good to know the rules. I would be happy to live in their new motorhome almost as is, retro is okay by me. But they love a project and now they have one.
I have work on truck campers trailers and I never got to work on fiberglass I have work on fiberglass boat though and you probably will have less problems with this then with aluminum or steel looks like you'll have a lot of fun doing it to looking forward to see it in the series God bless
I can't wait to see were you start and how you go alone doing this. May GOD bless you.
Looking forward to this. I have a 1978 dodge sportsman, 23 footer. It is original but has a completely different lay out. I actually Love my layout compared to all the other layouts I have seen. If you want ideas of layouts let me know I can send you some photos and such, but it is currently up north at our BOL. Have fun, work on reliability of the vehicle before cosmetics.
Yankee Prepper has a few really nice videos of upgrades he made to his motorhome same model and year. AWESOME rear cargo area like you described. LOTS of good ideas, check it out
Good Luck Danny I hope it works out, I was sorta going along with what you were planning but when you came around front and I seen the Dodge letters my heart sank.
new subscriber, really helpful information , you have a sincere kind delivery which i enjoy very much, your videeos are a must watch now that i found you , thanks and God bless !
man that motorhome has been well taking care of for its age can't wait to see way u do to it but it sounds like alot of work it might be cheaper to pull off the radiator cap and pull another motor home underneath lol! keep up the awesome vids!
Danny, I would love to help with a few bucks, I believe this is a great idea. Right now I have a bug out trailer that I am getting ready to work on that i picked up for $200 and it is a great layout just needs a few up dates similar to what you are going to do. It even has propane lights if needed. Kick starter sounds like a good idea speed the process a little and lighten your burden, let thoughs help who can. Thank you for the opportunity to assist you in this endeavor. Gods Speed TOBY from Michigan
Just curious to see how the remodeling project is going. I'm thinking about buying a 1978 Casual Sportsman
can't wait to see you install the solar system.
Wow Danny and Wanda where will you find time? Good luck... God Bless
Can't wait to watch the process.
I have a 1976...want to watch all......thank
I'm excited to see what you do with this.
We've got an 85 Bigfoot (Made in Canada) that we're suppose to be reworking. Wanted to take out the windows and reseal them. Ours is also fiberglass, 4 axles. He's got the tires off and was going to start working on the hubs but hasn't yet. They're probably needing some updating to. I've gotten the curtains taken down and going to make my curtains for it. My cushions in it are a wine color and cleaned up very well. I shampooed them all. It had old carpet in it and in all my research on the internet I saw where everyone with a Bigfoot saying they had vinyl floor covering under the carpet when they removed their carpet. So I got in a corner under the table and low and behold mine also has vinyl so I ripped that carpet out like a mad woman! lol LOVE the floor now!!! You should have seen our when they got it down here. I actually have pix of the cleaning it up process. His cousin had it and had given it to us before he passed away. He had planned on redoing it, but got sick so he wanted us to have it. So it's very sentimental for me! Anyway he and a friend went and got it and that's a very long story in itself and I am soooo glad I didn't go with them because I'd been a nervous wreck the way they had to bring it down here from TN. lol Here's some pix of ours on my blog...... mrsbettybargain.blogspot.com/2015/05/next-project.html Good luck with your RV Danny and Wanda! I can't wait to see what you do with it!!!!!!!
looking forward to seeing what you do with it...
Danny, GOOD choice to do away with the absorption refrigerator. As a senior RV technician, in just a two year span I personally saw the aftermath of five total loss RV fires. Each of these fires were started by the refrigerator. In order for the ammonia gas to reabsorb into the water it needs a catalyst agent. That agent is hydrogen (highly flammable) and it's under pressure within very thin walled tubing to make the refrigeration efficient. Neither Norcold or Dometic were any better than the other and both are many times what an electric refrigerator costs.
Toilet? Please look into a composting toilet before you make a final decision. They are taller, can be emptied anywhere, and don't have to be emptied for several days, up to two weeks. Without flush water, your potable water lasts longer and you don't have to haul a heavy sewage tank. In a grid-down world, you won't find dump stations that are safe to visit.
I'm looking forward to this series. It'll be a good one.
Tyler Woods Thanks for the info Tyler i am looking forward to your input as we go on this journey.Im always looking for good advice.Thanks again
Great, videos to look forward to watching.
Danny and Wanda just want to say thank you for all you do. An unselfish heart. Keep up the amazing work.
Is there follow up video where u show it all done ?? I just purchased 1976 GMC Midas mini and deciding if I should restore it or pay someone do it .
I have been watching your channels for a while and I did not know you had a bible channel! I don't know how I missed it but I love it!
Diane Bailey how do you locate the Bible channel? Thanks I didn't know they had a channel either.
Barbara the link is in the description below the video. All God's Children ruclips.net/channel/UCv6KuZYC9GwU6JhTgEShYUg
Go to the video about restoring the RV! Click on show more under the title, scroll down to where it says check out our bible channel! I think they would get a lot of viewers if people knew the channel was there!
Add me to the list of people who didn't know about the bible channel. I'll check it out.
Looks like fun good sir.
Danny I use to sale RV an Motor Homes. I would take out that bathtub and put in a stand up shower. Then put a cloths closet with the rest of the room. I have bought older ones and redone them. If you put in a refrigerator, put in the one that runs off gas and electric. When we are traveling down the road the propane runs it. It automatically swithches from gas to electric. You don't need a fifty amp unless you are going your be running coffee pot, microwave and air at the same time. Some places do not have fifth amp plugs. Let say you are going to visit someone house. You proudly would not be able to plug into a 110 plug with fifty amp plug. Now you can get a converter plug to go from 30 amp to 110. I been doing this for fifteen years. On the water line you just need a pressure reducer on the water hose going into your water system. I will be at the conference on May the 6 if you would like to talk about this venture. I will proudly pull my living quarters with me to stay in at the conference. I'll show it to you if you want to see it. My husband and I redid it on the inside. It was sixteen years old. You be surprised at how it turn out. People don't think it's the same trailer. If you have any questions feel free to e-mail me. I've talk to Wanda before. I'm going to be planting my Danny corn I've gotten from you
pms1953 Thanks i may have questions along the way.
Instead of running a fifty amp cord we put in two separate 110 plug strips so it did not go thru our breaker box it's a separate cord that plug into a 110 ten outlet. Works great
Please consider adding radiant foil to the insulation. It is superior in keeping both heat and cold out of the camper, just as it does in an attic.
Are you accepting new projects? Because my 1976 Dodge El Dorado Sportman would love your renovation help. Located in Kansas.
Hi Danny on the air you mite think on a new split air system with heat cost isn't bad and they will run on solar
I have an ol 78 Dodge like what you have in your videos. Your trim video just might have saved me some hours, and money.
Thank you for this series, if I ever find myself in your neck of the woods
Just got a 77 dodge class c so will be waiting. Tks
I need a project like this in my life
Will enjoy watching the redo hope you will still be able to use it by the time you get it finished. Just joking. It sounds like you would be better gutting the whole thing. Can't wait to see the finished product. LOL Gail
Whew - that's a BIG project. Sounds like a fun one, though.
Like your idea on old rv.
great content!
Danny I think you should check on the cost of all the materials that you are going to need to do this project. Even with you doing all the work I would say you are looking at $15,000 to $20,000 just for the materials. Plus the motor and transmission most likely will need to be rebuilt. I had to replace my heater in my RV and that alone was $1,000 plus I know the fridge will run between $1,500 to $2,000 to replace.
Ken Williamson We are doing a lot of research on items that are cost effective and can be used with little electricity.THanks Ken
II was thinking of staying in a travel trailer while paying for land. but I live in the north. Wondering how to survive the long periods below zero weather and the snow!!
This will be an interesting series! I think it's a great asset to your channel!
Great video...this is my new life style as im going through a divorce...i decided to live in a old motorhome with my two dogs .
My moter home is in bad shape but ...it represents a place of peace.
I sure wish I could get some good ideas to make my living sweeter....potty in a bucket is not as bad as i imagined.
Thanks for your videos❣
One of my concers is the door was broken into previous to me owning it....i can send a picture so you can possibly give me some suggestions( i cant aford to replace it)....i would greatly appreciated it.
looking forward to seeing the rv series rebuilding
picking up a 1975 dodge sportsman mini winne motorhome in England so good to eep upgated
Is there a link to the complete redo
I was just gifted a 1973 Minnie Winnie that was sitting for a few years. My husband is taking care of the “mechanic” side of things, but I want to get any tips on how to go about restoring the inside.
How much did it all cost to modernize one? I recently came into a 1977 dodge rv for free and wanted to fix it up
I am brand new to your channel, have only watched a couple videos.
I have a couple questions about your remodel. We have a 1983 Chevy Tioga. Why only electric? We use our propane much more than electric, unless we are plugged in. Do you have some advice to share on the over cab bed? We are both in our 60's so are making more night time trips to the bathroom. Climbing over each other several times, makes for poor night's sleep. We now use ours as our primary storage
Another comment question is the furnace. We've purchased a Buddy heater & hope to take the furnace out. Not efficient at all, requires generator if not plugged in, so using 3 sources of energy. I'd also like to install an on demand water heater, do they make any that can use either propane or electricity?
