    Nice job and a lot thought ...but no insulation? That's just build with condensation and rot everything in time surely ...

    Very well done! I think a sprinter van is my next step. I'm currently traveling in an Astro and would love the extra room. Can I ask how much the total build cost?

    @bunger87 9 лет назад

    Hey Adrian, I was wondering if you could tell me how reliable the Sprinter van is. I am in a dilemma over rather the Sprinter van or the Ford E-serous would be best for me to do a camper conversion on and then hit the roads. I plan on putting a lot of miles on it and need something I can depend on, do my own repairs, and afford to repair when the need arises.
    thanks

    • @dirtybilly09
      @dirtybilly09 8 лет назад

      +Xena TheAdventurest It just so happens that I am familiar with both of those vans. Sprinters are very solid and provide a little more room and fuel mileage, but the newer diesel ( the best option for long life) is electronically problematic. The gas versions are great, but underpowered. Ford Econoline is in my opinion the best option as long as you can get a diesel. You lose room, but have the option of using the four wheel drive from the f series trucks, making parts really cheap and the engine will last for decades.

    OK, somebody has some welding skills, eh? Nice job. Where is this located? And is it 'Turck' or 'Truck?'

    Nice. Although I lack the skills, the resources and most importantly the funds, to even do 5% of this.

  • @nordishkiel5985
    @nordishkiel5985 8 лет назад

    Nicely done! Are those real ceramic tiles? I don´t think i´ve ever seen a conversion with real tiles.

    • @VideoMenu
      @VideoMenu 8 лет назад

      +Nordish Kiel - I had the same idea and got some of this tile from HD. It's really nice in a modern/automotive way: www.homedepot.com/p/Jeffrey-Court-Carbon-Hex-10-1-4-in-x-11-1-8-in-x-8-mm-Glass-Mosaic-Tile-99323/205952796
      edit: Oh, but not white grout. That's too much contrast and I'm not a fan of black and white (or black and red)--too 80's.

  • @festol1
    @festol1 6 лет назад

    01:31 Don't tell me you just used on that rust a conversor, putty paste and put paint on it! To proper repair that panel the windshield should had been taken out and a new metal panel welded replacing that rusted one.

    How has the tiling/grout held up with the vibrations and torsional flex of driving?

    • @VerticalHorizonSA
      @VerticalHorizonSA  7 лет назад

      Excellently! I've had no cracked grout or loose tiles in 2 years! The van is my primary mode of transport and I drive gravel roads everyday (the town I live in has very few tared roads).

    • @VerticalHorizonSA
      @VerticalHorizonSA  7 лет назад

      I think the gross vehicle weight for these vans is 3500kg (fully loaded). The van currently weighs 1400kg - which is well below. It handles well :)
