We notice the wedding ring on Matt and said to ourselves "they got married!!!!" Congrats! You did a project together as a married couple and are still speaking to each other! :)
Haha, thanks! 😂
MATT: "Alright do you want to drill some holes in the top?"
NADINE: 😳
**Cut to Matt drilling some holes in the top.**

Gotta love checking for solutions or guides online while installing something new! The new tent for Clifford looks great!
Well done! My wife and I had a 1982 Westfalia Joker (the European equivalent to your Vanagon). We had it for 12 glorious years and I still miss it. Every year I had to do the "Michael Angelo" thing cleaning the mould from the roof and the canvas of the upper tent, as it lived outside. In the winter we would remove the upper matras to allow air to circulate a bit up there, but I still had to clean every year. Wishing you loads of fun with your van.
Dude that van is beautiful 😍 I miss the VanLife!
He’s a beauty!
Extreme congratulations! Many happy van builds together!
Happy Birthday Nadine. I wish you the happiest of birthdays that you can have in these difficult times we are living in.
Thats amazing. Love to see your vlog. Keep inspiring us to make awesome video.
Great job guys! This was fun to watch.
New tent looks great. Appreciate your honesty over your error and showing us how you realised/fixed it - stuff like this never goes quite perfectly first time.
Yup, these things happen. Especially when you don't follow the instructions!
Ohh yessss. I see I see. Congrats 👏 on the wedding. Looking forward to footage 😀
Thanks :) we'll be sharing something soon
That's a hell of a job to take on. Well done and thanks for the video.
I love westies so much! I hope to have one some day
I hope that you two get to put your new Sunbrella to good use soon!
This video has more innuendo than the next ten such laden videos combined. 🤣 Married people! I tellz ya what! 💞
Great job and way to persevere! That's one of the toughest jobs on a Westy.
Yup! All easy work from here on in right? Lol
I love to see your adventure with this VW! Euro van with a VR6 is my dream machine.
Congrats on the nuptials and great job
Nothing is as easy as it should be when working on vehicles. Clifford is looking really great. Perfectly named vehicle by the way. Couldn't be better.
i love the tent upgrade, makes it look nicer
One of the very first youtubers
Congrats on your upgrade 😃👍
It's very nice if we also have campervan like this... We are beginer campervan from Indonesia... We want to explore indonesia and share to all people... Thank 's for your video... It' s very cool....
Congrats you guys
Great video! Love that you were honest about it. I'm replacing the canvas in my '74 Westy, and I'm having such trouble with the corners, especially the back ones where it's more cramped (my pop up opens to the front of the bus). I've followed the directions exactly and have replaced the canvas in the exact same way as the previous one was installed. Mine is a screw in and similar to yours. I've got terrible near-vision too, so getting the screws into the railing, through the canvas, and into the screw holes on the bus body is a struggle with my terrible vision. Any tips for working for those back corners? Much appreciated!
Loved it
Looks nice.
Great congratulations
omg i love yall!! :)
GoWesty has a middle mount position that you have to drill two bolt holes in the van, or a more forward position for even heavier loads. I have mine in this middle position and it's still easy to lower the top without anything on it and enough of a lift if I have the rack up there with a couple of surf boards on it.
How fun!
Hi Nadine! Keep up the good work! If I had one suggestion, it would to maybe do another Q and A. With this whole quarantine thing right now, I think it would be a easy to execute and I know a lot of us would enjoy it! Loved the video. Have a good day!
In a few videos time for sure!!
@@heynadine How does one climb up / access tent area.....do these come with OEM ladder to climb up ? do you have link to ladder?
I love simple green for all cleaning! Try the lemon scent
I feel your pain. Installing my tent wasn't fun for me haha. Good job!
Great job mam
Hey i love your videos and i hope to see you in Ghana 🇬🇭 soon
thank you for the helpful info..can you tell me or send me a link for the Lift assist kit...I could not find in your links...thank you.
Which drive license you to drive on your van?
Poliii❤️

I miss your videos! 😭
I was watching the video before I got the notification 😳🤪
Haha nice
newlyweds??? congrats!
Hehehe you caught it, next video :p
Looking forward to that next video!
Did you elope on the Glacier?
@@heynadine congrats Nadine been watching your videos since 2011!! Had a crush on you this whole time!! Happy life!! You were my first RUclipsr I watched
Nice! 🌍
how do you like closing your top now? Im over six foot and around two fitty and I have to hang from the top to close it. Removed the struts. Unless you have weight on their permantly I'd avoid these stupid things.
3 days to put up a tent Nadine?🤭 Cluts? Nice to see Clifford the van progressing❤️✌️🇬🇧
Well should have been 2 days lol but that was our bad! could do it in 1 but we wanted to let the roof dry fully
Hi, What is the total measure of the spring?
Just bought a 1982 Vanagon Westfalia diesel. Can I ask you guys for help? Love your channel.
That's awesome! Not sure how much help we'll be since we're quite new to the Westys as well. Check out the forums at TheSamba.com if you haven't already. There's so much information about Vanagons, Westys, and the different years/engines. And if there is something you can't find info on, just ask a question and there are lots of people to help
How are Westy's on gas? They are pretty big, but I think they have a small 4 cylinder engine.
Not great on gas. They're quite heavy when they're all loaded up and you're right, they have a 90hp 2.1L 4 cylinder engine. We average about 18-20 mpg
I'm a Fan from Asia ,India
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love from india 🇮🇳
I love the way your van sits! Could I get some info on your wheel and tire size? 😁
Also has the suspension been upgraded?
One of the previous owners put in a 1.5" lift. Wheels are 16" but I don't know the tire size off hand. The circumference is very similar to stock, just slightly larger and wider
@@mattofstie9298 whenever you get a chance to see the tire size I’d greatly appreciate if you posted it! Thanks for the info too! I have an 87 westy Syncro. Brilliantly designed machines
@Joshua Toral Finally getting back to you on tire size on our Westy. It's 215/60R16 👍
@@mattofstie9298 thanks!
👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻😍😍
Where is the bathroom??
Great job 👌 from ind krl
5:08 I like your hair
Liked from India kerala
All I know? is that I envy this guy! to have your girlfriend accompany you on the project with as much enthusiasm as can be, and getting married .. is like you won the big lotto!
Your top has a vent. Is that stock?
Yup, it is. Does your '82 not have one?
Mine does not have the vent I do not think. I just bought it but have no got it yet. The seller is delivering next week. I paid to have it inspected by a professional and he did a thorough job and sent picture of everything. I will keep you posted and will ask you questions when I need help. Yes I know Sombra.
🤩😘🤩
Hey Nadine !! I hope this finds you well 🤗.. if you were to apply for a tourism job that requires content creation for focusing on exploring and driving tourism around the province ....with a 2 minute video ....how would best showcase why you'd be the best person for the job?
Any and all suggestions will be appreciated if you were to reply ... if you want more context ... search 'sask wander" on youtube 😊 thank you !
High Rise :-D
Back to screwin!
Where’d this channel just go?
😂
So are we going to get a wedding video??
Heheh next up
❤🥰🥰
The canvas is not easy to replace. I did it once, will NEVER do it again! We didn't take the top off.
Hello my new friend 🙋♂️🙋♂️👍🔔👍🙋♂️🙋♂️💐💐
漂亮
When did Nadine go from hotel life to van life? :o
when covid-19 stopped hotel life. 🙁
New huh? I seem to remember VW had these in the late 1960's.
??
It's a new tent that's replacing the original tent... Not sure what you're confused about.
