Two amateurs building a camper van! Let's fix this van, because this summer we'll do a long road trip where we will need a van we can live in. See our first steps as we start building out our 1986 VW Vanagon and follow the next episodes to see the final result. What do you think of our new project? Do you wanna see us travel in this car this summer?!
Thanks to our friends for helping out!

I’ve recently contracted to have an ‘84 Westy built. Can’t wait to drive it home to Tennessee and get the fitting done. Your van and it’s problems are one reason I went ahead with this at 73. I can’t do a full build myself but I’ve had old cars, driven them for years. Adventure awaits.

Wow, how inspiring it was reading this! Best of luck on your coming adventures mate, your experience with old car will be useful. Remember to bring tools and spare parts and have fun😊

Do you think our camper van will turn out nice? Any good ideas to what we should include as we build it out?
@ElHorste

Solar power of course! ;)

I would love to have a solar setup like that. We’re gonna be «weekend warriors» and as we live in Norway with a limited sun season, I need to consider if the investment will be worth it.

How did you decide what pipes and wires to keep intact? I'm gutting a vanagon soon and the electrics are ancient and cruddy, but if there are wires and pipes worth keeping it would be so helpful to know :O
@SimonBraeck
@SimonBraeck 4 года назад
It always depends on what you find. We had a few newer parts that looked fine and we replaced the ones that looked ancient. Just do things properly and you’ll never regret doing things the right way :)

Great van build vid . I’m going backwards as I found you and started watching the tours first. I really appreciate seeing the start and time you put into your van. Well invested & well deserved. Thanks for sharing.

@SimonBraeck 4 года назад
Thank you Simon! It's a struggle at times, but so worth it in the end, it feels even better when we know every bit by heart because it's all selfmade.

Can’t wait to see how it turns out! So jealous, really want an old camper like this!! Great video, you guys are so cute
@SimonBraeck
@SimonBraeck 5 лет назад
Thanks! It´s gonna be fun to continue building it and because it´s so old, you never really know what will go wrong😂
@broness1485
@broness1485 5 лет назад
So true, I guess that a part of the fun! Do you have any plans traveling with it? Btw, I think it would look cool in a different color, maybe yellow
@SimonBraeck
@SimonBraeck 5 лет назад
We have some plans, but they are yet to be revealed😉 It’s gonna be painted for sure, just not sure about the color yet.

Wishing you the best. I know you'll have great adventures with the Vanagon. I lived in a '69 Westphalia while in college--best vehicle ever. btw, 1986 is not old for a VW!

Hey Simon, I have done some research on owning a vehicle in Norway. I plan to come to Norway for my Master's next year and wanted to research the feasability of living in a campervan part of the year. Any chance you can give me a roundabout cost to purchase the van including tax?

Did you just glued your floor to the metal or did you used some screws?

You didn’t show us what the rust repairs looked like. Did they do a good job?
@SimonBraeck
@SimonBraeck 4 года назад
Oh yeah, that’s true. They did! Really seamless joints and they even painted it with a perfectly matching color.
