There's a very famous funny cartoon that we had on the wall in the office of two ants pointing at a diagram of a plan on which the last step says "and then a miracle occurs". I think we've just seen that happen on the van build! Its suddenly come together. Well done for sticking at it. Also please dont be discouraged by the occasional nasty comments. Many channels have them as there are quite a few unappreciative people out there. Fortunately there are thousands of us who wait for your weekly videos and very much enjoy them.

Hi Danni and Joe. Great job on the van. Shame you’ve not been able to keep him. The upgrades you’ve done will certainly benefit the new owners. Take care. Nick

When ever I say "I need to buy a 3mm drill bit" I mean "I need to buy 10 3mm drill bits because I am going to break 9 on the first hole"

Hi Joe great vlog, as always! Really pleased you are getting more sponsors! More than happy to watch an ad or two for all the hard work you do

Hello to you both. Sorry to hear you re planning to sell Vincent. I was hoping to see you have a little adventure out in him. Up in the wilds of Scotland or something like that. Still, I’m sure you will do what is right for you. Just as long as you are both enjoying what you are doing and are both happy. Looking forward to next weeks adventures.

Thanks as always for your vlog Joe….your hard work always pays off and I, for one, don’t at all mind your advert…all power to you both xx

I don’t mind the ads, especially if they help you buy things you need. I watched this again and saw so much that I’d missed! I’m proud of you! You did so much work. And I’m all about living in two different countries and cultures. Thank you 🙏

Just a small tech point, AC cables should be seperated from DC. because AC fluctuates from + to - 50 time a second you can get induced currents in the DC cables. You need to read up on electrical induction. All to do with magnetic fields.

Great work guys, you sure are doing this van buid really good, sad you going to sell it...

Oh joe such a shame to sell it after all your hard work, hope you get a good deal on it. See you next week. 😊

Another fab video guys! I just got my first sponsor 🤣🤣

Nice one Joe 😮

Great video good luck with the sale

You won’t have any trouble selling that. Classic.

Really enjoying your channel . Thank you .

Another reason to use hardboard is that it won't splinter in a crash, unlike plywood.

Great job done on restoring vincent, shame you have to sell,maybe you can buy another vincent in italy. Just to add im interested in vincent, guess you will have a lot of your subscribers wanting to rescue him.😊

Good to see the progress on the van, its looking good, even in the "50 shades of blue" shame you have to sell it, but I understand the thinking behind it.

Nice progress. Now there are two things missing; a bird for success and a bird for your italian tongue

Your very clever Joe. That wiring looks good. Great job 👍

Shame you have to sell her😢 Thank you for the update👍

In Italy, cars over four years old must undergo a roadworthiness test (revisione) every two years. If the car is over 30 years old, a reduced car tax (bollo auto) is payable (apparently).

Loads done on Vincent Joe.

another great video many thanks

Awesome!!! 🤩 Roseeeeetta 😂

I dont know if i have missed it in the past but every week I wonder and ask the husband why Christine, Maurice Paul and Scott get a special mention. I am driving hubby insane 😂😂😂

Well done 👏 … quite enjoying these posts … it’ll be a shame to sell it tho

How much are you looking for As I’m most interested

You always work so hard Joe 💪 love the vlogs and tunes. ❤️

Hi Joe, once again an exzellent video. Great job, well done. Its a shame that I don't live in the UK I would have loved to have bought the van. I don't think the wife would have agreed.I already own a camping mobil and caravan in Denmark. Keep up the good work. All the best Steve from Germany.

I love your vids, please can you tell me where you got your interior lights from ??

How much will the van cost to buy?😊

How much for the van

I can understand your motivation for selling but somewhat disagree. Assuming you sell this T25 to buy a property when you later buy another T25 given the prices to buy, part prices & availability, its the logical choice. Short of paying £10k+ it's likely to need work too. I doubt you will get more £6k for your current air cooled, meaning a lot of work to make a little profit. Although in 1985 Volkswagen improved the quality of cars, likely a factor in most T25 survivors being 1986 and older, described as late T25s when buying parts. Why did you not buy a diesel, either 1.6 turbo diesel or 1.6 diesel ready to fit a 1.9 diesel 1Y or AEF if you can find one. In a autosleeper, autohomes or Holdsworth vision being my favourite conversion. Much more reliable and around 35-40 miles to a gallon on a run. Plus less work (Holdsworth used lots of solid wood.

Did Vincent need to be mot'd prior to gaining historic status?

how much? xx

I'm interested, how much do you want for it?

👍

U should have had a different title Joe and you shouldn't give that information of selling the van so quickly because there is no reason (for non subscribers) to watch the video after that..... bad salesmenship. A good title would have been "2 SELL OR NOT 2 SELL" and save the decision untill the end with an epic climax though you may pitch the question a few times before then before the climatic decision...

What a waste of time and energy but hey content got fulfilled! Those cabinets should bring in 50p 😅

Another abandoned project for paid content and freebies. Should have know better when I first started watching. I guess if people are silly enough to fund other peoples lifestyles then more power to you
