- Today me and dad, finally tackle the underside of our 20 year old campervan, rust bucket. This is a big and dirty job, first requiring us to scrap off the old rust and then we can paint the rusty spots with black.

Welcome to Taylors Aboard a Campervan, our sister channel to you guessed it Taylors Aboard a Narrowboat. On this Channel, we're be converting our new, well new to us 2005 Peugeot Boxter. which we bought to replace our Renault Kangoo, which is too unreliable, uneconomical, and small for Dad to sleep in. This van was an ex-school bus, with only 80k miles on the clock, 3 new tires, a new exhaust, But most importantly it starts every time and doesn't have a fuel leak. The two big problems with buying an ex-school minibus are, one, it came with 14 seats in the back that we have to remove and try to get rid of. two it has a speed limiter on it. This van is so big we can all sleep in it, allowing us to travel to beautiful places far and wide, like Scotland and Wales, whilst staying in the van. So join us as we convert this ex-school bus into a beautiful family camper, from electrics, plumbing, and gas to building 3 beds, a kitchen, a dinette, and a toilet all into a 6ft by 11ft box.

Great job you and your Dad have done well done 👏 😊
Cheers Chris 🍻
My first camper was like that. It took weeks with wire brushes. I then used a huge amount of rust converter followed by a ton of bilt-hamber dynex UB. A lot of work and a couple of hundred quid, but it put years on the life. You might also want to remove the chassis blanks and use something like Dynax S50 inside the chassis members. This should stop any further corrosion from the inside. Good luck!
Yes, it's a nightmare! It's our own fault though, didn't even look under it before we bought it 🤦♂️ that's a good shout. Thank you 😊
Hi Josh I wonder if the school bus driver to the youngsters down on Woolacombe sands as I remember you could drive along the beach only that rust must have been caused by salt damage
Needed spraying of underneath after. Each winter
People down at Milford on sea love driving down to watch a storm but then drive through the salt water in the car park to leave some idiots have brand new vehicles what you and dad are doing reminds me of my fiat camper but I made a mistake if selling it to a work mate and never heard the end of it 😏
Yeah, it seems that way! Although I think it would have gotten stuck on the beach! 🤣 yeah, people don't realise just how bad salt is for the underside of a car or van.
Your doing well both of you. . The horses and caravans have my be been to Appleby horse fair or going. Take care .xx
Thank you Carol 😊 that was at Bascote, I'm not sure how close Appleby was, so it could have been
The rust has rust…keep up the work. You’ll get a lot more back than what u put in.
🤣 I know! Thank you 😊
Nah then, ey up me ducks.
This is one of those never ending jobs me thinks. You both looked like you'd had a fight with a tin of paint and lost, hope you managed to get it all off lol.
Ay a good weekend guys 🙂👍
Yeah 😂 this was just the start!
That is rotten beyond belief. Must have been in salt water
I know it's crazy! Ha ha 😂 seems that way!
you look like a chimney sweep LOL get some used old motor oil and get an old tree sprayer and spray the under carriage all over and drill little holes where the doors close and spray inside the fenders and doors and buy some rubber or plastic caps to plug the drill holes when done it will never rust again
Ha ha 😂 I know! That's a very good shout. Cheers for the advice 👍
You're wasting your time with that van, it's a bag of rusty crap. All that work you've done is a complete waste of time. All you've done is seal the rust in under the blacking.
Yeah I know 🙄 but we've spent so much money on it now, we don't really have much choice, as we don't have any money to buy a new one.
