Feels like you are the premium version of me. I camp with a defender, you do with G wagon. I shoot medium format, and you shoot large. I’m 5’4” and you are 6’3” 😂
The amount of adrenaline I got just from watching YOU cut the roof off your g wagon was amazing. Sweaty palms and all! As always, loved the video and this looks like an amazing set up! Cheers!
I agree with previous subscribers, that was a daunting job, well done guys and you topt it of with apropiate music and some fine B&W pictures, i liked especially the one with the beached boat and the portrait of Christopher, just classic art 👌🏻
Lovely conversion Shane. Chris is definitely the artist. I have the good fortune of knowing him and Alan first hand. They are pillars of the G enthusiast community. Infact i saw the first ever Camptop on Alan’s G before deciding to buy a G. Mines on its way soon :) Enjoy the G it’s a bloody tank
That's such an awesome setup! I look forward to seeing it in person next time we inadvertently choose campsites next to each other in DV without either of us knowing it. 🙂
I've been wanting one of these for a while but keep missing out on the group buys. Hopefully I'll get in on the next batch, seeing this video just makes me want to get one on my G even more. Thanks for showing it off so well.
nice work on the G Wagon....I wouldn't be brave enough (or rich ) to get this done....lol looks a lot neater than a roof top tent. Love the boat wreck picture
Hello. It looks super nice with this rtt. I really like how it looks, not even noticed when you give a quick look for it😄 Nice job. Have Great time with it when travelling👋
That’s awesome! What’s the payload on the truck? Also how big is the load floor? How big are your drawers? It seems like it could make a good family overland rig with a set of drawers in the back and some shelves for luggage organization and a roof rack.
Apparently you plan to use that G Wagon for awhile. Would you use that set up in the winter, or is that only a 3 season rig? If so, how would you heat the space? Love the contrast and directional lighting in the Pt Reyes boat image, so dramatic. Did you use a filter or increase contrast in post? The marshland image is very cool too. Plus a great portrait of Chris. Hope you can get past all these time consuming projects and get back to posting photography videos more regularly. Looking forward to the next vid.
No plans to sell the G. I'll probably invest in a new motor before considering a new truck. Everything new is so expensive. I would consider it a 4 season set up if I were to install a heater. Webasto makes a good vehicle heating option. Thank you. Yes, I used a #15 deep yellow filter on the Point Reyes shipwreck scene. Yeah, me too. The videos are fun, but very few people contribute like yourself. I certainly appreciate the support. The video scheduling revolves around my freelance work schedule.
Thanks for sharing. The camp top is CRAZY expensive !! What was the cost of fitting? Now it is on your vehicle and you have used it, what is your opinion of it? Was it worth doing ? Cheers from new Zealand.
Very beautiful conversion! Even here in Germany, the home of this company, a very rare and rather luxury conversion. How long can you be to sleep comfortably upstairs?

LOL. You are the pocket version.
You both have small willies though.

Haha! It certainly got my adrenaline pumping too. In the end, definitely worth it. Thanks!

Wow. Now I can see why you did it. Nice setup. Looks much more comfortable.
There's so much more space inside now. It also saved 275 lbs of roof load.
This is next level. Never knew this was a possibility, now I have to ask my Toyota FJ Cruiser friend with tent setup what he thinks of your rig.

When we getting an updated video !!
Nice view of the GG Bridge framed by the trees- one I have not seen before!
Thank you!

Thanks, Ben! It’s pretty awesome. Yeah, hopefully the timing works out next year. We just missed each other this last winter.

Thank you! I started saving for it in 2018, so it felt very gradual. Yeah! I lucked out with the clouds that day.
Hello. It looks super nice with this rtt. I really like how it looks, not even noticed when you give a quick look for it😄 Nice job. Have Great time with it when travelling👋
wow, how scary was that first cut?. G wagon looks awesome with the new camp top. and once again some great pics to help inspire us
Thank you for putting this together!
Outstanding conversion. Love it. I just sent Christopher an email to see if I can get this done on my rig.
Love the video and the truck looks great. The boat picture and the GG bridge framed by the trees is beautiful.
Thanks! Those are my two favorite as well.
Outstanding Shane
Fantastic job. I really want one of those G-wagons! Great photos.
If you can find an affordable option, they're awesome trucks.
Best of luck with the conversion Shane, it looks a sturdy job ďone with great skill
You got some nice shots when you were there also 📷👍
Thank you! It wasn't a photography trip, but I'm happy with the photographs.
Hello Shane congrats on the Jeep, great photographs could you tell me what type of film was used? Thanks
Love it!
Fantastic Cristopher!!
What if it rains at night when you are asleep in the tent?
Do you still have the roof skin you cut out? Interested in purchasing it as the area around my sunroof is badly corroded.
gerat stuff and good work on your car!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Glad you enjoyed it
soo cool

Family? It only sleeps 2.

It is definitely a luxury purchase, I've been slowly saving and planning it out since 2018. It's very quick to set up, maybe 1-2 mins to get into bed.
@@shanedignum congratulation! I wish nice adventures and good sleep… ;)
Will this conversion also work on a G550?
Yes it will. Check the Schmude website.
Wow that is awesome!
