DIY Astro Camper VAN TOUR - "Swiss Army Knife" of vans?

[@jimbeam6969]

My man upgraded from the Versa let's goooo

[@LANZD_]

Oh that was the versa guy?

[@jarod3371]

Super talented dude.

[@BriansLegitEdits]

Yo I remember the versa, very inspiring whip!

[@ATrainToAfrica]

The way you are presenting this is better than any larger channel. This is as close to meeting someone giving an honest experience in person as i’ve found. I will spread the word

[@CampoVans]

Thank you!

[@recyclespinning9839]

I bought a large used RV , parked in my yard, never used accept to sleep in a few times , realized did not want to drive a bus🤭. Sold in less than a year. He made an amazing versatile , aerodynamic, RV , you can stand in , but can park and go any where. Amazing, thumbs 👍 👌

[@liamginty]

This is THE BEST conversion I have seen! So inventive, so unique, top class. What an amazing dude

This dude is a straight-up WIZARD when it comes to creative building/fabricating… a Jack of all trades… and so YOUNG! I need to stop complaining about working too much and start to learn stuff like this. Like take adult night classes and learn a little about each trade. That’s my goal over the next couple years.

[@donnabacon4681]

Cory - that's a great idea! Taking classes in a trade school. I would love to learn how to weld; I have a rudimentary understanding of carpentry, I just need to have more patience when things either take longer and/or when something doesn't how's as planned. Good luck with your new adventures!!

[@ce6ej]

@@donnabacon4681 thanks Donna. It’s very difficult to find the time and energy to learn new things outside of work, but I’m going to start this summer with a basic DIY class. Thankfully, there’s a school near by where I live that offers night classes for virtually every trade you can think of. I have a very basic understanding of carpentry as well, but there’s a lot more I want to learn. Good luck to u too!!

[@donnabacon4681]

@@ce6ej Thank you! Hope it all works out for you! Enjoy!

You get points for having a Chevy Astro, extra points for converting it to a camper and mega points for putting a cool bike on it. Hello from a fellow rider in NYC. I have a Ford E350

[@r.d.ontheroad-1094]

I must say, you have done an amazing job , and for a small vehicle, you have maximized your space with a very nice build!!!!!! My hat is off to you!!!!!!!!

[@happydays9613]

Lovely versatile van, designed by a fully skilled individual. In reality not many could do what he has, due to his knowledge and skills which have most certainly helped. It's a beautiful practical van, but in design his skill set has benefited him and worked out to his advantage. For someone like me this wouldn't even be practical unless someone could build it out for us. I hope as a result people just work with what is possible within their means, and are not put off, to just get out and about. His story is wonderful though. He could really help others to create something similar with his mind and make a business out of it. Thanks for sharing this unique story and van.

[@nomadicbless]

I am absolutely in love with the genius of this build. It's so functional with its own unique vibe--i hope joey plans to make more in the future since I won't be able to grab this one.

[@bujaremini5621]

Then Look german camper vans you will Thing you are on heaven

[@CaliforniaBushman]

Best Astrovan build I've ever seen.

[@kayfabe591]

Joey, you're genius...a real 'DaVinci & Git R Done guy'. TYFS this detailed tour. You inspired creative thinking for unique features and fabrications.

[@ef5supercell]

1:17 that lawn chair made me laugh so hard lol. Well done! This is so creative for the tiny space

[@stevevanpelt4475]

Best Astro conversion I've ever seen! Super functional. I love the hangout space up front. I'm currently working on a DIY Astro pop top project :)

[@IAmAGiantDork]

Hey I'd love to talk to you about your Astro pop top...interested in doing the same!

[@donnabacon4681]

Joey - incredible build/design. Very impressed with your humor and ability to speak succinctly, using actual names of items, instead of "stuff". You could make a living doing this - for as long as you would want and/or as a consultant. Good luck in your adventures and enjoy it all!!

[@65bucksmedia]

This is the best designed Astro I’ve seen. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@rhythmofblues]

I love this van!! I have a 96 Astro UK side of the pond. Climbing, biking and paddling van. Had it 16 years now. Yours is the best!!!

[@davenik1999]

DUDE. Brilliant engineering, outstanding design, and beautiful craftsmanship. This van is exquisite!

[@bigticket5869]

I have an Astro build by Journey's with a 5" lift and 4WD conversion. I have not done the interior yet, but you have done the "best" camper conversion I have ever seen in the past 10 years. Kudos to you and your innovative designs.

[@richardhenry1969]

Dude you did amazing job. It’s great working in a shop, always left over parts. Been a mechanic and welder myself. So when I say great job realize I understand the amount of work you did.

[@lindabishop7656]

I see a future of many more and greater achievements for Joey. 👍

[@eriklittlebigg7440]

Great job man!!! Impressive welding and fabrication skills!!!

[@pwrfl2357]

The light to show the water level is brilliant!

[@tomrandall4871]

Nice build! I especially like the way you repurpose surplus materials! And the thinking into dual ways of sliding countertops, refrigerator access, table top, hidden storage, gray water tank placement. The high rise top is the best idea!

[@mariabetancourt6797]

This young man is brilliant

[@travelwannabe5392]

Love the extended counter top. Well done!

[@prospectingron2.013]

I dont want my 1987 Dodge B250 Campervan anymore, NOW I want THIS CAMPERVAN !!! WOW 👍👍👍

[@DustyCowdog]

Man, I love the loft bed... that frees up so much space. I'm starting to think that you are a design genius. Nice video .. cheers. Edit... I wrote me comment before watching the entire video. This is a really creative build. Great job! I'm impressed.

[@josiahshelman2474]

I can’t believe how much welding and different mods he did!!

[@KentHeckel]

Sooooo amazing! I want more Joey

[@lightdark00]

Seeing as they are both on Instagram, I really don't understand why neither seems to have a youtube channel.

[@OIII-IOOO]

what a brilliant and creative engineer this kid is. i envy people like him with so many skills.

[@GreenLeaf.8159]

Such a chilled, funny, creative and talented guy!

[@cortonolver5276]

I have seen a lot of van builds. This is one is the coolest and most unique I’ve ever seen. Well done

[@scoob5961]

i use a chevy astro as a work van this man uses it for EVERYTHING

[@desiswag907]

I like the light on the fresh water tank. 😊

[@steadmanuhlich6734]

Impressive! Impressive build, nice use of the materials, nice adaptation of several things, and nice finishing of the surfaces shown. I don't know anything about the builder company, but now am interested because of this video tour, with its good narration and many features shown. Well done in all aspects.

[@RenoLaringo]

These 3 don't do anything, but.... they're pretty cool ! I LIKE THAT !!! Very nice construction mate! Thank you for sharing your wonderful work. Grettings from another Astro fan from Belgium

[@emmagriffiths1543]

I like the mystery machine paint idea! I have the same idea! But more muted/darker colours of it 😄

So creative! The MacGyver! Work it!

[@yovinada]

Awesome transformation very functional!!!…😊👍❤️

[@icanhearyoucanyouhearme9164]

wow, fellow astro owner here, really wishing I could weld. nice job

[@chrisreed26]

Wow that is low miles for an Astro! Those easily go for well over 200K plus miles. Great roof raise too. I plan to buy a van and hate the idea of paying $4K for a Fiberine roof so I have been trying to figure out a way to build my own. Great to see a video like this!!

[@spiritzweispirit1st638]

Incredible! So much Extra Awesome Inspiration' Also Fantastic Videography Thank You!

I love Astros and am beyond intrigued by the unique van life creations like this. Joey has done an incredible job with this conversion. I just have one question: who refrigerates peanut butter? 😁

[@seansimons7043]

AWD Astro van is the shit!
