Rebuilding an ABANDONED GMC Motorhome! Rescue Part 10 

“Not perfect by any means” literally better built than the house I live in. Y’all do amazing work.

Very impressed with the transformation on this one.

Favorite build on youtube right now. Keep up the hard work!

Hi guys I am a carpetlayer and done plenty of vans and people pick a easy carpet to clean because when your camping got to remember of dirt and mud plus make sure it Scotch guarded

That was quite the transformation for that bathroom! Looks fantastic!

As a Rv owner I surely enjoy watching this GMC restoration. Budget Buildz is top notch in their work. Thanx 4 sharing your RU-vid conten.

Make sure you disconnect the plumbing from the sewage tank and flush out all the trash and debris and dirt that has fallen in all the drains over the years.

WOW, the bathroom turned out great! It's starting to all come together. Can't wait for the next update!

Really enjoy watching you and your Dad come together to refurbish this Old Motorhome! I believe that it will be better than brand new when you have it completed! Can't wait for that to happen!!!!

You guys should be proud of that bathroom. Fantastic job. Cheers from Down under.

I’m always looking forward to seeing the new update on this very cool camper. Lots of work but the end result is going to be amazing. Thanks guys!

One of my favorite RU-vid channels.. This coach is going to be a real showpiece when it's finished..

Like the way you and your dad work together so well!

You are so right about the build quality of most RVs these days. Spot on.

The Teamwork between you and your Dad is just terrific!

I swear your dad has gotten 10 years younger since he left his job to join you. Must've been stressful. Glad he's with you.

It's like you're reading my mind...I just happened to be thinking "I wonder how the GMC project is going", turned on RU-vid, and there it was at the top of the suggested list👍 Great job, gents!

I can just imagine the family memories that you will create. Great job.

we had a 74 model which looks exactly like this one. I still remember the smell of the interior when dad brought it home. it was so dang sweet back in the day, many many days ago. thanks for sharing this.

You and your Dad have amazing skills, keep up the great work.

This series has been great! This GMC will be a gem once complete…cant wait for the next vid.

At 14.00 min: 😱 A PAGODA MERCEDES ! 👍👌👏 Goodness gracious me! I hope to see a series about this iconic and extremely valuable cabriolet. Something like your fantastic series about the Porsche 911.

I loved the look of this motorhome when they first came out. Great to see it become road worthy again.

A little tip for anyone wanting to sound deadening. Put sound deadening on the back side of the door panels. The plastic panels resonate a lot of sound. It will help alot. The motorhome is looking so good. Great job guys

I had forgot about this project, glad you posted this. GMC campers were way ahead of their time. Keep going guys. Cool project. Super stuff.

Cleaning that bathroom was not a job.... it was a duty!

1:15 those wheels look awesome! well done, absolutely brings this RV to the next level. love it

Hardest working guys on RU-vid - GREAT WORK!

I dont even like campers... but this series is one of my favorite automotive series on youtube. I love the rest-mod efforts and details with using the totaled modern rv to the vintage RV. Keep up the great work and content!

WOW you guys did an amazing job on the bathroom!!!!

I look forward to this series . Thank You for letting us hang out .

can't express how great a job you both are doing, I. love your choices, the bathroom came out spectacular. this is getting really exciting and you both are so blessed doing this as father and son, what a gift from the Lord

You and your Dad have done a great job fixing and updating the various systems on the RV. I would have done the same thing with the Bathroom/shower/toilet assembly. The quality, engineering. and craftmanship of the GMC motorhome you have easily exceeds any brand new RV out there.

Am absolutely blown away by how great that bathroom looks now - really well done!

Bathroom and door panels look amazing for a budget build!… can’t wait for the next one.

Hi again.. Satisfying to watch you bring that motorhome back to life and it be useful again.Also nice to see you working with your Dad...he is quietly helping behind the scene..wish my Dad was still with me. Im now 75 semi retired metal trade worker and dad taught me a lot of what I know today. Keep up the good resto. work...Steve, On the Beautiful South Coast, New South Wales ,Australia

Your level of craftmanship amazes me. Beautiful. Excellent work.❤

Heyyyy!! I see that CJ sitting back there!! Jeep gang! Let's goo!!!

Thank you all for everything you do and the entertainment you provide. You are doing a beautiful job. God bless.

Best Rv build on RU-vid hands down 2024👍👌

I was reminded of you guys this week. My wife and I were driving west on Interstate 20 through Jackson , Mississippi this week and saw about 6-8 of the same thing you guys are reviving all in a convoy headed east. It was quite the site and reminded me of the this one. By the way, the one you guys are doing is looking better with each video. Thanks.

This series is what got me subbed

Amazing work! Very sympathetically done - preserving the basic look but bringing it up to date. Loving this series.

Really enjoying the GMC Motor Home rebuild. Getting a lot of great ideas from you for my 1975 GMC coach. Thanks for sharing your progress.

First time seeing someone bore a 2 1/8" hole to start a jig saw cut! Seriously though, you guys are killing it.

You guys are doing a great job 🎉. It's going to be really nice and functional. You will have so much fun with it. Thanks for showing us we can do it too.

Man, I have wanted one of these since I got the Hot Wheels version in 1981. I've been following this one closely. Great work.

Incredible work man. You guys are killing it. I envy you being able to work with your Dad on it. You guys make a great team.

Y'all have done an amazing job with the entire restoration. I'm very impressed with how you transformed that bathroom. I love you all's hot rod content. But I've got to honestly say I enjoy this just as much. You two don't even realize how much your teaching people that with some elbow grease and patience anything can be done. I truly envy you and your dad's relationship that you all can do this stuff together. I've never had anything like that. I'm not a religious person but the only word I can come up with is that y'all are blessed.

Absolutely superb. What a great job! Better than many new motorhomes.

Great video! Love these GMC motor homes since the 70s. Really enjoy the work you two are doing. Looking forward to the 225 also. Thanks 😊

Brings back memories, my brother had a '73 with the same floor plan that we enjoyed over the years. Too bad my sister in-law didn't offer me the chance to buy it from the estate when he passed. She called a junkyard and had it hauled away.

I’m new to watching your channel and your video is fabulous. I love how you actually talk to us while you are fixing stuff. A lot of videos I have watched are either no talking or just music. Thanks for including your viewers and I’ll certainly keep watching 😊

The bathroom… WOW! I’ve been watching this series from the beginning and look forward to each episode! 🎉

I love this series. One of my favorite. You guys are doing an amazing job. The bathroom turned out amazing. When I redid my motor home I did not use the sound deadening material. Wish I would have thought of that myself.

As far as the carpet goes I would suggest use the same stuff from the bathroom. That EAV decking. I think that stuff looks pretty good and it is easy to clean too. Keep keeping S.C. proud!

Amazing rebuilding process.....you guys are knocking it out of the ballpark.

I think the bathroom update is great.. you guy's are so good at remodeling this old GMC.. Cheers from Missouri!

So happy to see the latest version come out, I am addicted to this series, can't wait to see it done!!!

This is the best restoration project on RU-vid.

LOVE YOU AND DAD WORKING TOGETHER ,, THIS CAMPER IS GOING TO BE BRAND NEW!!! AWSOME...I HOPE AFTER ALL THIS WORK YOU WILL KEEP IT FOR YOUR FAMILY ,,DONT SELL IT.. I LOVE THESE CAMPER VIDEOS ,,AND ALSO THE CAR VIDEOS ,,HOW THE BURNT BLACK BUICK WILDCAT COMING ALONG..?? HOPE THE TREES DONT FALL ON YOUR GREAT CARS.. THANKSSSS!!!!!!

Enjoying the caper rebuild. You are displaying great attention to detail. Looking forward to seeing the final product when completed.

Looking great, very impressed with the ideas for updating the bathroom and driving area. I have a suggestion on the bathroom, the tap and sink drain flange could use some plumbers putty to stop protentional leaks. Also seeing the shower drain with so much silicone on it make me think there is a leak or was a leak that could leak again and since you have done so much maybe take a look and make sure it is good. Can't wait to see what you do next.

Love watching the work on the GMC, you’re doing an awesome job. The bathroom transformation was incredible. Love what you did to update the sink area. Keep up the great work. 👍🙌👏🤙

You guys are amazing at what you do with all the old vehicles you bring back to life. I love your videos.

You guys are doing a great job, the bathroom looks amazing. Love all your thinking and reasoning behind all the decisions you make.

Michael, I've said it before, this is one of your best series yet. The Porsche was the best, in my opinion, and this is number two. Good stuff. Hey, a suggestion, if you don't mind: in your bathroom cabinet, I noticed some rusty discoloration. Something that may work in getting that out is muriatic acid - yeah, acid. It won't harm the fiber glass and a little bit on an old rag should do it. give it a try. It works. Wear gloves though!

I have a very original 1974 Airstream Argosy 20' motorhome that I am refreshing. These videos are inspirational as well as informational. Can't thank U enough and keep them coming!

Looks really good! Nice work!

Hey guys, it's just an enjoyable journey watching you give it a face lift. Excited for you and your family. Can't wait to see your first outing in it.

Absolute awesome project. And this lovely camper is so different compared to what we have here in Europe. Different in a positive way - I simply love it ❤

Again a good Team is at work here ! The Bathroom is looking nice and very professional rebuild, and i love the small but important details. Like that counter top and the sliding doors, the wood giving it little bit extra. And the sound proofing is more than okay, it will bring some more comfort when driving. Side paneling is given a great update with the wood arm wrest and is making the picture complete ! Love this video very much and wish you both lots of success with oncoming jobs on this great Motor home !

I'm always fully impressed how you guys deal with issues popping up, and always a solution. This is my favorite project, keep up the great work!

Looking good 👍 The bathroom looks great. I was surprised you were able to re-use so much of the original. You did a great job cleaning it up. And the countertop looks awesome! Keep up the good work. I can't wait for the next installment!

You guys really think out of the box. The bathroom transformation was spot on. The sound deadening up front will really make driving much more comfortable. I'm not sold on your latch for the battery and tank. If the screws are not into any metal framing, it would only be time until the weight of things bouncing against the latch pulling the screws out. If you want to keep your fix, try this. Take a large long bolt with a flat washer, drill a hole in each slide tray, drop the bolt in so it drops deeper than the metal frame. Trays are not going to come out!

This is still, By FAR, my favorite of your rebuilds...🤟🤗 The Bathroom looks AMAZING! 😍🥰👏

It's looking awesome. I've been following this entire rebuild. 👍👍

You are doing a great job on this. The transformation has been amazing.

From what you started with to where you have gotten it now is nothing less than miraculous. It’s beautiful.

Black rubberized carpet for the driving cockpit area, remember high traffic areas where a house like carpet will wear and tend to get dirty easily. Great work guys!

Awesome work on this Ultimate Rescue.

Fantastic work. Awesome attention to detail and workmanship ship. Keep up the great content.

Good morning from Cape Cod ⚓ the transformation in the bathroom is remarkable, you and Dad did some real nice work Mike. Keep up the great work guys ✌️🇺🇲

A bit late, but if you don’t absolutely need that space between the bathroom and the door, tear out the left wall of the bathroom and install an appropriate sized shower stall. You will be real happy not having the kids having to use a wet head. Most important spaces in rv are bathroom, kitchen, sleeping, living.

Hi there! I've seen all the videos of this wonderful restoration. I'm really amazed of all you've made on that RV I hope I could visit you one day and meet you. Best regards from Mexico

Looks great bathroom guys. Look forward to the next episode.

Thanks for the update on the ol' girl Michael! Y'all are doing an amazing job on 'er! I ever stop having issues with my back I'll try to get by there and say hello! God bless! ~ Scott 💙🙏🏼

Love this build. Can't wait til you guys can have fun camping in it!

Good one! Maybe caulk the edges of the countertop to prevent water from getting in?

Awesome job so far! Can’t wait to see what you do with the bathroom door since, by design, it looks like it would need to seal and be waterproof. Keep putting out the videos and I’ll keep watching!

Amazing job. Can't wait to see this project when it's done.

The bathroom looks great!

The Bill Murray Edition camper 😁 I just love the design of these things, the huge windows are FANTASTIC 👍 The wheels look incredible, great job !! Ummm those gate latches aren't going to hold up on rough roads, they'll rattle loose.

You guys are killing it on this rebuild. The bathroom came out fantastic. I can't wait to see the finished product when you're all done.

Hello Guys; I always look forward to seeing all of your videos no matter what you are working on. Can’t wait to see your motor home fully completed. I love the fact that both of you approach things in a humble, but very positive manner which makes this one of my favorites here on RU-vid. There are a few of the RU-vid channels that I have backed away from because they really change their attitude towards their subscribers once they “Hit The Big Time Status”, So To Speak. Thanks for keeping things fun for everyone.

This is like ASMR for me at work. Keep up the good work!

You can't go wrong with real wood, it looks good on anything. What you and your Dad did on that bathroom ended up being 10 times better than what it was originally, with that cracked up cheap plastic. I'd say don't even bother changing it 'cause it looks really good as it is. Cheers from Argentina!

great job on the bathroom... enjoying watching the transformation!

👍👌👏 Oh WOW, it's amazing what good cleaning can do. The bathroom looks simply great. This restored RV will definitely serve your family well. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and especially health to all of you

Love the fix for the counter. That turned out great. I would definitely leave it and keep using it. And the end result for the bathroom is amazing! Can’t wait to see how the kitchen area turns out. As far as the driving area. I wouldn’t do shag, as much as it would look retro, it would be very hard to keep it looking good. Not sure, what would work, maybe laminate floating flooring?
