[@yveeriksson6676]

Very beautiful on the outside and practical on the inside. Good job!

[@zelda401]

Hi nice designing and use of space. I had a vanagon westfalia 84 I sold it to buy a vanagon Riviera pop-top 84 turbo diesel 4 spd. Happy trails to you safe travelling.

Its VW T3

[@AnthonyTristramMoore]

This van is probably the closest to what I'd like, and it's got so many great solutions I wouldn't have thought about... Love it.

[@shanedennis1136]

I live in a 170 sprinter. I have two 60lb dogs so the room is very nice. But honestly if you're by yourself or with a partner this is alllll you need. I love these Van's. Great build dude

[@colleenkaralee2280]

The huge central skylight that allows you to stand up is an inspiration, thank you.

@@allenschmitz9644 Yes they seem so awesome but for a 30-40 yr old vehicle they are asking 25K. Definitely not for someone struggling to get out of debt like most of us. :D

The Safe idea in the front was pretty cool, might try that myself. Set a movable center console ontop of it and you're golden. Nice job

[@jzt999]

So great, I watched 3 times already. The bungee cord and netting are beautifully done, and so practical. And it looks like a boutique hotel room when the bed is made up. WOW!

[@BenjaminQuesnel]

Glad you liked it 😊

[@Kayte...]

Very nice build out! Simple and practical. The rug is gorgeous! I have a ukulele hula dancer on my dash too. She's to remind me I'm on vacation and stay happy.

[@margiepeary8003]

Brilliant use of space! Wishing you and Jozette many happy years on the road:)

This is by far the best of the best VW van conversion. Now I want to have this for sure. It has everything!

[@littlemisssunshine2931]

Love the colour change. Pure sunshine. Yellow always cheers me up and makes me smile. It's also the colour of car you are least likely to have an accident in so good luck on your travels. Thanks for sharing.

[@raraavis7782]

Neat. I really enjoy seeing these smaller, more utilitarian builds. Like the idea of a large stainless steel water tank!

Such a cozy and beautiful van. It's very homey and I could see myself living in it. 😊

[@mysteriousnotsoseriousdeb]

Beautiful rig! You can tell he's put a lot of thought into the details. I, too, love the stainless steel water tank. Saw that on another vid and I'm definitely going to go that way with my build.

[@michellebyrom6551]

It probably helps to heat the van as a small space. Personally I would hide its glorious shine under a bespoke (selfmade) insulation jacket to conserve energy in cooler places. Nicely done and totally liveable in remote places.

[@1952mrpdc]

I am afraid to say that I love this video. Love the VW van. Its absolutely gorgeous. Very practical. Wish I had one. PC. 23. 02. 2020.

Wow!!! una de las mejores conversiones de Van que he visto!!! me encantóooo!! el techo es hermoso, ¡¡como para cocinar viendo las estrellas!!, el problema sería cuando hay mucho sol o está lloviendo pues tendrías que cocinar agachado, pero bieeeeen, la verdad es que está super lindo, muy funcional, muy buen diseño y sobre todo muy practico todo, cada espacio está super bien aprovechado!!!

Very nice! I love those Volkswagon vans. I'm so happy to see this restored even better. Taller

[@aishayana4298]

Love your 85. You did a great job, very impressive and I like it a lot. I have a 85 weekender with a big valve 2.1. That I built from scratch. Gives me all the power I need to climb all roads in the mountains of Vermont. I’m 65 and I’ll never give it up.

[@flowersmile123]

Happy yellow van, hula girl on the dashboard, this van can be a fun piece to a movie. He did great with the small space. And route yourself where you are inspired and happy - anywhere it may be...live.

[@dheard1014]

I have never seen that floor pattern! I love it. My next move is to insulate and lay down my floor and I am going to look high and low to find this vinyl!!! It’s a great van so full of character! Thank you for sharing ❣️❣️❣️

[@vibecat4899]

No, they’re looking for a SKYLIGHT as in the VIDEO TITLE which this van DOES NOT HAVE. #clickbait

[@sydneysammons7227]

utube user What are you talking about?? There’s a huge skylight.

[@CheapWannabe]

@@sydneysammons7227 He might've meant that it's not mentioned. And he's right, I'm working on 2 vanagons right now and looking at roof options and found this. Watched whole video to find not a mention on skylight. I assume it was a pop top or something, and from his IG seems like he rescued a bad shape van. That said I've seen enough nice vans videos. I specifically came to learn about what and how this roof works, and how it doesn't leak etc etc. So as far as I'm concerned it's clickbait and wasting time.
