I live in an 86 Dolphin. I have so many things to tell you. Example, you should have a safety window that completely opens, that’s where I brought my new fridge in, and other larger items. Also, the bathroom is super easy to upgrade. I shower in mine regularly. Anyway, you’ve done a great job!
@@danielratner I've only replaced the toilet, put new walls and trim, an LED touch/dimmer light, and a fan. Two things I plan to do, pull the shower base, make a full bath shower base with the toilet sealed on top, and re-routing the shower drain to switch from an outside or grey tank run-off. Oh yeah, I put the shower curtain track to the wall and around, so there is tons of head/shoulder room, even if the foot space is smaller.
@@blessedwithchallenges9917 Hell yeah! That sounds great.. I'll post a video of mine soon. I have the 300 (kitchen in back). It was $2000 and I am restoring it and living in it. I also have 300 watts of solar and 600 amp hours of batteries. Currently got the same upgrades as you, but soon will be working on. I like your switch idea... may do the same for showering
For Julie: You are living my dream! I have a Class C and whenever I have a friend in it, they tend to pour their heart out to me. I do work in a helping profession, but I’m not licensed to practice...yet! #goals! Congratulations on all you’ve achieved!💕
Hey guys, hi Julie! So, this video was so awesome and what incredible timing. I have a 1984 Toyota Dolphin myself that i scored in 2009 here in Chico, CA where i live. Guess what her name is??? Dolly! And i bought her primarily to live in while pursuing my vinyasa yoga teaching certification from Shiva Rea in So Cal 11 years ago. Unfortunately i have let my Dolly fall into a sad state, i let some friends live in her for a year and currently its a mess! I'm just now embarking on a remodel (Dolly 2.0...thanks Julie for that one) so i would love to stay in touch. I will look ya up and hopefully swap some yoga RV tales. Thanks so much for the inspiration. Namaste.
I've been discovering so many of these tour sharing channels lately and I have to say You're my favorite, shows everything really well while pointing things out without talking over the owners. Overall such a great vibe!
What a lovely lady and a lifestyle that smashes it. The van looks great and I was surprised at how much space it has inside. I like your laid back style Jarred and being able to find some great people to interview.
This is incredible Julie!! You did such a great job keeping the old vintage and new balance!! It seems cozy, functional and home like. I'm curious about dolphins now! Peace. ✌
Absolutely needs a channel! Please!!! Share your journey, what works for you and your experiences!!! I would listen and I love your home ❤ I'm 66 but I see me here rather than a van or tiny house!!
I’ve watched you for quite some time, but I honestly now have a NEW respect for you Jarrod! Thank you so very very much for doing this particular tour and interview!
The most beautiful camper I have ever met, it swallows my heart, I can't take my eyes off such a masterpiece, everything about it is absolutely beautiful😍😍thanks for the review👍
Love this!! You go girl! I’m also a holistic mental health therapist and spiritual counselor in private practice and in the market for buying a class c so I can travel around and see my clients anywhere! Can’t wait for the freedom!!
Very cool that this rig has a tag axle to handle the weight. Prior to 1986 Toyota would sell those chassis with light half ton axles to builders who would then put a ton of weight on them. A lot of those older Toyotas had the axle break on the road. After 1986 or so, Toyota would only sell builders the 3/4 ton axle. My brother and I both had 1985 units. He found a 3/4 ton axle that he put on his. It made it so much more stable on the road. Mine with the half ton axle was kind of squirrelly to drive and I was always worried about not carrying too much water weight. It took a while to get used to the sway when big trucks went past. At first, I feared that a wind gust would tip it over. My rig had the same interior layout as Julie's. Plus it had a slide out for the dining area. I kind of wish I hadn't sold it. I'd probably strip down to the bare chassis and build my own light-weight design on it. This is a beautiful update job. Great interview Jarrod.
I love it! You did an amazing job! I too gutted and remodeled a 22ft 1978 Chevy Shasta Class C. I cannot find another one like mine anywhere and it would be so nice to find another but no luck yet. I too have dullies 😁 I wish you all the best and a life full of many wonderful memories.😊
I love your life. Congratulations for Living your dream. My dream is similar and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in private practice too. I own my Dolphin now, but haven't done any renovations yet so I have still have the fake oak walls and cabinets. Thank your for being an inspiration.
These were Dolphins remedy to a law suit brought against Toyota. The original frame was a 1/2 ton pick up designed for smaller size boxes. Coach manufactures started putting heavier/longer coaches overloading the frames, thus a lawsuit against Toyota which eventually got coach manufactures involved. Ultimately the coach manufactures were found at fault and a recall was ordered. Dolphins remedy wad a cheap repair where they welded a box tube to the frame and put on the tires to take some of the load. Other coach manufactures removed the 1/2 ton axles and correctly installed the 1 ton dually axles.
I'm glad that she brought up the engine power. I had a pickup with a 22R engine, and as a pickup it was happy to go up hills, and pull just about anything. I really like what you've done with the interior. Wood grain gets old after awhile.
This is the best Dolphin you will ever see...I owned one for a few years and the joy is at the destination, the journey is challenging, hills at 15 mph
Amazing dolphin, I redid an a mid 80's winnebago brave...100's of hours new gray, mocha cabinets, turned out incredible...a lot of sweat equity but fun..used it for many years.. and sold it to another family and broke even...It's living its life touring the country..desert S.West.it has as a Saguaro Cactus stained glass door. Just joined you channel...
Loving the idea of a psycho therapist on the road. You are doing good works and seeing new sights at the same time. As to YOU TUBE......seems like a good idea financially speaking.....but consider the time restriction.....maybe have to give up some free time.....I think you are wise to give this one a "maybe" Meanwhile....I would be happy to have you as my therapist. Your charm and sunny attitude goes a long way. Good luck to you in these trying times. I'll bet you will find plenty of clients on the road. What a novel idea.
Sleeping on the top bunk in the summer time sucks, because all the heat goes up and the roof is on🔥fire.😂 Sleeping on the lower bed in the winter sucks, because cold goes down.😁 So in the summer I sleep below and in winter I sleep up top.😎😁
A very nicely decorated interior and the storage solutions well thought out the main reason l watch these videos is l have an interest in Toyota Ute's and an interest in camper vans/mobile homes why l like Toyota Hilux Ute's by now you realise l live in Australia and l own a 1997 Toyota Hilux this camper van is huge gas everything you need also l am glad everything is original in the cab apart from the inside of the doors
This is awesome, thank you. I'm an LMT, but my career has kind of taken a bit of a dive. Have been thinking about going this route myself. I'm from Oregon, but live in Phoenix currently - also a bird lol 😊
I have the Toyota warrior, 1992, Winnie , with a 1991 6 cylinder truck chassis. I’m doing a good amount of renovation this 2021 summer season to give it my own style. Only 94,000 miles. Love it . Drives like a small box truck, but would love it to be a manual stick. Nice oldie.
Certainly the nicest Dolphin I've ever seen. Most are quite rough or worse. Interesting that Julie had the vision to update the RV and do it quite tastefully. Next upgrade? The Toyota supercharged V6 that goes into the Lotus Evora and a 7-speed manual behind it!
Please experience the Triangle T Guest Ranch in Dragoon AZ. We are transitioning to an experiential wellness center and have amazing energy and history!

Can you write more about your bathroom upgrades? I am upgrading my 86 and would love insight

Nicely done Julie... brought it up to date without going overboard.
Hey guys, hi Julie! So, this video was so awesome and what incredible timing. I have a 1984 Toyota Dolphin myself that i scored in 2009 here in Chico, CA where i live. Guess what her name is???

Chico CA is a wonderful place ❤ to vacation for a week 😀 😊
Really nice reno, such a down-to-earth personality, thank you!
This is one of the those collector campers for sure. Julie is very lucky to have found one of these.
I have 1988 and I need to reinforce side it’s buldging any suggestions? We’ve rebuilt Front n back but wood sides are dissolving :(
Great job Jarrod, I love Julie's whole outlook on life and work, she is a gem. Good Luck to both of you and stay safe.
Julie you are awesome..your spirit to holistic healing in mental health is very special..God bless your unique home and You. Plus, the cute dog.
Julie needs a RUclips channel for sure!
Touché 👍🏻
I need a Julie....
I've been discovering so many of these tour sharing channels lately and I have to say You're my favorite, shows everything really well while pointing things out without talking over the owners. Overall such a great vibe!
Proud of you. Glad you created an awesome life for yourself.
You are a great example.
Thank you for sharing.
Julie... so inspiring. Thank you.
What a great interview with a pleasant and together young lady! I would definitely subscribe to your channel, Julie! 👍🏼
What a lovely lady and a lifestyle that smashes it. The van looks great and I was surprised at how much space it has inside.
I like your laid back style Jarred and being able to find some great people to interview.
I just love your Dolphin and your decor! I do wellness too, reversing disease, hair tissue testing, books, love this video!
Wow Julie seems so rad! I love her methods on mental health! I’m super holistic with my healing as well! Thanks for touring her home jarrod! 🙌🏼✨
I love these! Awesome job! Way to go in finding her Jarrod!
Love what you did! I could so see myself living in a rig like yours 😊
This is incredible Julie!! You did such a great job keeping the old vintage and new balance!! It seems cozy, functional and home like. I'm curious about dolphins now! Peace. ✌
Absolutely needs a channel! Please!!! Share your journey, what works for you and your experiences!!! I would listen and I love your home ❤ I'm 66 but I see me here rather than a van or tiny house!!
We had a much smaller Dolphin in the late 70s. It is the only vehicle I’ve owned that when I sold it, I cried. I knew I would always miss that RV.
I’ve watched you for quite some time, but I honestly now have a NEW respect for you Jarrod! Thank you so very very much for doing this particular tour and interview!
Thank you
I am really proud of ur utmost efforts.
The most beautiful camper I have ever met, it swallows my heart, I can't take my eyes off such a masterpiece, everything about it is absolutely beautiful😍😍thanks for the review👍
Awesome build love it. I absolutely love Toyota RVs so much space it's Amazing
I love how much room you have in your desk/couch area. Very cool!
Awesome!

What a sweet beautiful home.

How fun. I just bought a Toyota Grand Sport... Smaller, but similar. Can’t wait to get started. Great inspiration. Thank you for sharing.
Very cool & great renovation !
Love her and the tour👍🌹😊
Thats like crazy comfortable, tasteful and smart ride.
Jarrod...hello from Gladstone, OR. Love your channel.
Excelente!! La verdad que me encantó , sin lugar a dudas uno de los mejores motorhome que he visto!!
She's a natural for a RUclips channel. I hope she does it.
What a beautiful lady ❤️! The way she speaks her smile just an awesome lady!
Absolutely love Dolly. Julie, thank you for the work you do. Please start a YT channel. Thanks for sharing, Jarrod!
I love the rear kitchen. Very nice.
WOW!😃 this is AWESOME👍 all that in one small place on the road
I love it! You did an amazing job! I too gutted and remodeled a 22ft 1978 Chevy Shasta Class C. I cannot find another one like mine anywhere and it would be so nice to find another but no luck yet. I too have dullies 😁 I wish you all the best and a life full of many wonderful memories.😊
Yes, Julie! Please shine your light on our mental health crisis here in the US. We can’t remove the stigma without education.
Fantastic renovation!
Cool video! Keep up the great work
Great interview and rv.
I like that she left just a little bit of the old interior in her vehicle. Oh and yes, a holistic approach to health is so important. Great job!
Julie, Would love to see more of your adventures.
I love your life. Congratulations for Living your dream. My dream is similar and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in private practice too. I own my Dolphin now, but haven't done any renovations yet so I have still have the fake oak walls and cabinets. Thank your for being an inspiration.
I love your traveling home. Sweet ❤️
I would of definitely bought a Toyota rv. if I haven't bought my Monaco DP 4years ago. but I love my dp. Great content and great video. thank you
I have fallen in love with these little yoga warrior’s campers❤❤❤❤ this set up and remodel is very chic🤩
this is my dream home some where in my future. thanks for sharing.
Nice renovated Dolphin. I think that I saw a video on YT about the single axle Dolphins being dangerous on the road. Another great video, Jarrod.
1985 and earlier. A Dolphin with the lightweight axle has 5 lugs. The heavier axle has 6 lugs.
Cool tour!!
Come on Julie we all need you the whole country is going bonkers.
I agree and she can advise on getting away from it all first hand!
Awesome little truck, an she is really cool an beautiful too boot
Really enjoyed, yes I would watch Julie’s channel!
New to your channel btw enjoyed 🤗❤️❤️
I didn’t know that Toyota made a tandem pick-up with twin axle from factory, super cool.
These were Dolphins remedy to a law suit brought against Toyota.
The original frame was a 1/2 ton pick up designed for smaller size boxes. Coach manufactures started putting heavier/longer coaches overloading the frames, thus a lawsuit against Toyota which eventually got coach manufactures involved.
Ultimately the coach manufactures were found at fault and a recall was ordered.
Dolphins remedy wad a cheap repair where they welded a box tube to the frame and put on the tires to take some of the load.
Other coach manufactures removed the 1/2 ton axles and correctly installed the 1 ton dually axles.
If you bought and sold these would that make you a ... flipper? 🐬
I see what you did there, but that dates me.
Lol😂😂😂
Haha thats funny😊loving it ❤⚡
@@strada5052 Maybe we are just history geeks!
😂😂😂 Love it Jon
Beautiful!
I am renovating my 1992 Dodge Ram Conversion van. I love it
Julie you are doing good work for others. We could all use a relaxing you tube !
I'm glad that she brought up the engine power. I had a pickup with a 22R engine, and as a pickup it was happy to go up hills, and pull just about anything. I really like what you've done with the interior. Wood grain gets old after awhile.

One of the nicest motor homes l've seen❤
Great video!
I have seen a couple Dolphins never inside.Juli, you did an amazing job. I would watch her on youtube she has great energy.
julie did a great job renovating that!
Nice Dolphin
the tandem axle has been on recall since 1981 LOL
amazing the 22R is still rocking!!!
Old school cool ... with new up grades always awesome 🇺🇲
This is a sweet rig!
Geez! I love her kitchen. That really looks functional for a mobile set up.
Wonderful Home.
