This van is a series of bodge jobs! Jeez how can some muppet go and buy such an iconic van and treat it so badly, wouldn't let the previous guy make me a cuppa let alone do any sort of job for me, what a clown! Also I thought you'd teleported to a race track for a second there, WTF was that! Someone has a serious piece of kit, if you see it about, make sure you let us know what it was. Nice handyman work too, definitely not flexing, just showing the sort of character you are, plus confirming who really wears the trousers haha, you did a bang up job mate. The Duke on the windows, they vinyl or you get the glass etched? Looks sick.
It's Vinyl on the glass mate. Thanks for the top comments and feedback, really appreciate it. I shave no idea what that car was but honestly I've not enhanced that sound at all, that's how loud it was and was perfect timing that I was filming. Sounded unreal.
Well the bed could have a double use like convert into a bench seat covered in valour or soft hide. The floor would look good in inter locking timber flooring varnished of coarse, this would add a touch off class plus sound deadening. Under bed storage with fridge for the beers. With it having a Rolls Royce engine the roof lining has got to be something like a valour, velvet or suede. Roof lighting needs to be ambient or may be a miniature chandelier just to keep the Rolls Royce theme going. Sorry about the suggestions it's my head running away with them strange ideas that it has, sometimes I just can't control it, it has a mind all off it's own.
First time commenting, long time viewer, love the progress on the transit, you are a very funny guy in front of the camera, you really should have more subscribers, the quality of your video's and the content is great, keep up the great work....
What about making the passenger side captains chair removable and can be stowed behind drivers seat then have bed down the passenger side to rear, that way feet can tuck under the dash?
Love the garden bar mate, really nice. If the inside of the truck looks half as good as that...👌Kept thinking the handbrake is right in the way. would be good to put a mercedes pedal operated one in it, would make the rear space / captains chair more useable. Not sure why, but I want to call your van Trevor. Keep up the great content mate!
Maybe the van is called Charlie, the Krays Dad's name or Violet their Mum? Could you either extend the cab back to give you a double bed? Maybe just extend under the window so you could sleep with feet towards the spec lift? maybe a rock'n'roll seat across the width so you could have whole cab as bed? Less windows will allow better insulation. Nice thick carpet would help insulation as well. Did we miss road test?
Some good ideas there mate, stuff to think about. Didn't miss the road test, I want to give the cooling system some attention before I take it out on the road. It gets HOT quickly!
I reckon you should put a narrow bench seat along the back wall and a removable pedestal table. Then two captains chairs in the front. That way you can have people in for a few 🍸 🍾🥂🥃🍻 I think your van is called Norman. Lonĝ lost brother to Ronnie and Reggie.😅
Loving the ideas for the interior mate cant believe the state of it wow and that seat how that never come loose is beyond me those welds was shocking and I think the name of the vivario is penelope hope I'm right would love a new hoody anyway keep the updates coming hope Malcolm's doing good mate peace 💯👌✌
Black limo 90%tint on the rear windows, put some dodo mat sound deadening on the interior of the panels and the roof before you put anything back in, it’s a game changer. As for the vivaro van , she must be called Violet, same as the krays mum . Best channel on here, keep it up 👍
Ah what a great comment to read, thanks so much mate, loving putting the videos out, hopefully they're getting better as they go along. No link to gangsters for my vans name though unfortunately
That's much better with all that cleared out, so much more space. Your idea with the 2 captain chairs up front and with the bunk level up to fit the fridge and then some good extra storage next to it.
Welded seats 🙄 Definitely carpet for that luxury feel. I would blank that window if you're going to sleep under it. They are like a cold radiator at night. I've slept in enough estate cars to know that 🤣 I know a lot of van dwellers and nobody has a window by the bed. Would it be an idea to be able to make the passenger seat fold so the bed is an L for a little more leg room. Jesus I had a lot to say, starting to sound like it's for me 🤣🤣
Save the door cards you can draw round them as a template. Check the door post doesn’t impede the swivel of the captains seat. Maybe get a solar panel on the roof
My son Jack think the van is called Frances. I used bitchumen matting on the panels then raptor lined most of the interior. You can tint it whatever colour you want to. You should not blank out the window. Looking great!
Cheers buddy, thanks for commenting, for the name - think female and with a "P". Aslo sorry for the language in this video, I started to beep it out then broke the beep machine.....
Colin. If it’s like the Hoody you are wearing with the pistons on the back just tell me how much they are to buy and I’ll just buy one LOL. PS love the videos
Not even close unfortunately mate. No the road test hasn't happend yet, that'll be when I get it MOT'd. But I want to give the cooling system some attention first.
You should get two rolls Royce seats find some banger boys they will know where to get some. Then put them on swivels in the front. The rear seats look like mk1 or 2 transit seats.
That interior should be listed on the CDC's most dangerous places, I can almost smell it through the screen. You could tint the window if that is legal, rather than blanking it off.
I had a few beers on board when I watched that video lol I've just watched the latest 1 of the transit getting sanded and the back half primed what a difference with that done mate it looked hard graft getting that shitty black paint off it's going in the right direction now pal your doing a brill job you should be proud of yourself.
Poppy Pandora for the vans name. Another awesome video, your so dead-pan funny. A lot of red velvet in the cab with a shag pile carpet and gold trimming’s please. 👍🏽😎
@@Fighting_Torque hi mate, I think you Gotta give me a clue I don’t think anybody else on here has a clue either Ronnie and Reggie I’m just going along that sort basis I would just like for once to win an online competition. I’ve watched all your videos from the start of the transit story. Anyway I think I’ll leave you there I’m sounding like a right saddo anyway love the pub do you feel my neighbour has just built a pub out of his summer house and looks really really good just like yours
