7 months ago we made the massive decision to completely rebuild our Land Rover Defender and Four Wheel Camper in Cape Town South Africa.
This huge project is now wrapping up and we could not be happier with the results. Now it's time to get out and explore the African continent.
If you've followed us for some time you'll know we rarely do product promotion and when we do it's only if we would use the product ourselves. In this case we were ready to purchase the Ecoflow Wave portable A/C unit anyway so when the company reached out, of course we agreed. If you are interested in any of the awesome Ecoflow gear and you're in South Africa, the US or Australia then using the code "Grizzly" will get you a nice discount along with helping us out as we'll get a commission on every sale.
Thank you for the support 😊
EcoFlow's Black Friday Sales event is here! It's
the best time of the year to invest in an EcoFlow
product. Use code 'Grizzly' for 5% off on USA &
AU sites, or 500R off on the South Africa site.
USA site: us.ecoflow.com/pages/black-fr...
Australia site: au.ecoflow.com/discount/Grizz...
South Africa site: za.ecoflow.com/discount/Grizz...
Join us as we travel the world overland, exploring the cultures and traditions of all the countries we visit.
In our Land Rover Defender camper which is our full time home we will take you rock climbing, hiking and exploring across all the continents on this planet.

Guys..... As an engineer myself, I'm blown away by the dedication and craftsmanship put into this. Unbelievable.

@norkisserrano 7 месяцев назад

Looks like a new animal ready to roam around the Safari. They did a fantastic job in refurbishing the camper, and the new truck bed is just plain badass. Wow

@indikaskw651 7 месяцев назад

You two such a wonderful couple. Instead of buying a new car and camper, you give life to it. Highly Respect ✊

@SiCrewe 7 месяцев назад

I don't say this lightly but.... did you know you were going to end up building THE best Defender camper in the world?

@HeliRy 6 месяцев назад

There aren’t many Defenders that are truly beautiful. This is one of them 👌

I can't believe it's been 7 months! Congrats guys! Beautiful build!!!!

@kevinmoss970 7 месяцев назад

Dude. What an awesome bit of kit she looks now. When you 1st announced it was a tray back type conversion I was a bit sad that she'd look less like a Landy and more like a typical Australian pick-up tourer. But, I'm glad to be proven wrong. It looks epic. Hope you both enjoy the new set up on your new adventures. All the best.

@jdenmark1287 7 месяцев назад

@alwynvanwyk1851 7 месяцев назад

Happy travels, you two.... G&B looks great, you chose right in who was going to do what.... The long open dusty roads of Mama Afrika is waiting for you. Enjoy every minute of your journey... Don't rush it, there is far to much to see, far to many rockfaces to climb, with thousands of big wide smiles that's going to cross your paths.. Bon voyage, mooi ry.

@cdizzle2812 7 месяцев назад

My partner and I went to the landy expo on the Sunday to see the final product. We wanted to say hey but you guys were swarmed and thought you'd be exhausted from a long weekend of chatting to everyone anyway. Nevertheless it was awesome to see the final product of Grizzly & Bear, I hope you two are so insanely proud. If you see a teal disco 1 between Cape Town and Tanzania flashing their lights at you that'll be us. Best of luck on the trip!!

@GrizzlyNbearOverland 7 месяцев назад

It was indeed a hectic weekend. We were sun burnt and exhausted at the end but had so much fun and met loads of awesome people. We'll keep an eye out for you 😊

@kayeman001 7 месяцев назад

@keithcranston1509 7 месяцев назад

Awesome wagon. Can’t wait for you to start travelling again. I don’t see the time go by but it seems like only yesterday that you were talking about lockdowns and not being able to move. I imagine they for you guys this 7 months has gone on for ages. 🎉

I started watching your videos as I am mid way through a 130 EV conversion, then I watched your previous videos and was shocked to see that you visited my car wash in Port Lincoln! It's a small world. Great video, the guys in South Africa definitely put some hours in!

@scumpert 7 месяцев назад

What an absolutely f@@ing awesome job! I guess you're really proud of the "transformation" and I hope that the guys who did the job (including yoursleves) have been recognised and rewarded. If I lived in SA then I would use the same companies you've used! Take care, Mark x

What an amazing job. Now I have to convince my wife we need a holiday in South Africa and ship our Defender over to get some work done there ;-). Everyone who worked on the car clearly has an enormous professional pride. And that shows in the result. Looking forward to your next adventure with GrizzlyNBear. Stay safe.
