In this video I spray and rebuild my Mercedes Sprinter camper conversion, in timelapse and stop motion animation for ultimate detail. For behind the scenes content or to support the series visit www.georgekarellas.com
Did you hear me screaming at the screen to CLEAN THE DASHBOARD!!!!! lol Editing as I watch.. LOVE the color. Cant wait for the interior and the LOTUS!!! My favorite automotive channel on youtube!
Yasssss!! It's like we're back in the Soup rainy season! After the summer drought we now have a VERY welcome return of the camper - and what a return! It seems like just a couple of episodes ago it was just a bare skeleton, and now the exterior is (99%?) done, and it's on to the interior - what fabulous progress! Congratulations George, I'm so excited to see what comes next!
Watched this episode on the commute home in the early hours with a random stranger on a London train that I have done my best to convert to soup life. Love it George- keep up the good work. Every subscriber counts !
Intelligent colour selection for discreet use as a camper and alpine glass will transform interior ambience with light. W124/w126 seats would be a nice upgrade over the sprinter if you can make them fit 27:54 glass sunroof tilted up gang
Like the color and great to see big progress in this video that must really have been great feeling. There were some very funky flute happening in the score this time 🙂
George, It looks a great after all that work you have put into it you need a result like this to boost your spirts and knowing all that prep work is behind you now has to make you very happy, Looking forward to the rest of the build and hopefully you will get a chance to come out to Austria in 2023. I guess when it‘s finished a tour around Europe wouldn't be a bad idea. It would at least give you respite for a few weeks lol. Cheers Dave
Yet again George you've done something amazing, what a fantastic condition that van is now, i wonder how many 20 year old Merc Sprinters are still running around! Also proving again you are the guru for applying body seam sealant, having learnt from the master my old defender no longer leaks in the rain, well not as much as it did :)
Been following for years, and every new video never fails to inspire me. You make the unachievable seem achievable. You turn the big problems into small excuses and what I've learned is that they don't matter, as long as you keep going back, keep stuck in. All else will prevail. Kudos to you.
The cinematography is astounding! I can only start to imagine how much extra work it takes to film this beyond the amazing amount of work to do the restoration!
Yo Soup ! Happy to be seeing you before Christmas ! If I don’t see you before New Years Eve , I’ll be a bit sad but wishing you well and hope to see much more of you in 2023 🎉
Looks great George. All that work and you didn’t clean up the fittings, surprised with your drive for perfection you could cope with that! Get some ceramic coating on the black parts and then it just needs a wet sand, polish and ceramic coat all over!!!
Congrats on getting it painted! No easy job with something so large. Love the colour. I'm a big fan of greys and browns and think they still have a place on the modern roads! As someone who was a longnhaul truck driver for years, I can say that the romanticised versions of van life you see on intagram are a facade of the daily struggle to get your pants on, but since it shit hot right now, good work!
I think that I've already seen the glass guy somewhere else on RU-vid. He's awesome, an absolute pro. :) Btw, it's a great build. Can't wait to see the ultimate surf-wagon finished.
George me lad, that's the finest Sprinter in the land. Can't wait to see what happens next! Hope you're having as much fun doing it as we are watching it.
I had a 1999 2000 one of these back in the day doing courier work, brings back a bit of memories looking at your one being rebuilt you done a magnificent job with it
