Today I wanted to try make a cool Truck and trailer I saw on Instagram. A VW Microbus was towing a Holiday Trailer that was made from another VW Microbus! It turned out pretty cool!

I am in the process of building the same thing except I attached two VW bus bodies together as the camper trailer, and for the cab I used the hot wheels VW flatbed. You did a fantastic job. 👍👍👍👍

[@dalerobertson9394]

This is why I love this channel. Customs from a guy who thinks outside of the box and goes the extra mile with the details.

[@cpad007]

That is a half-lap joint you made there to connect the bed to the cab. It's a common joint to make in woodworking. Most excellent job!

[@joakimhjelm-svennesen8984]

What a beaut! I love that VW camper and truck. What a brilliant idea with flange the body panels together like that rather than just glue them together. When I drove around in old cars back in the day, I sometimes used JB Weld epoxy putty to fix rusted out areas on the body after removing as much rust as I could. Works great on minor rust issues, and if done well and sanded down the rust and epoxy putty and painted you can hardly see the area that's been fixed. I once fixed a small rust hole on my VW Golf MK3 inside near the cap filler. It actually turned out pretty nice after repaint

[@modergav]

The next time you work on a Pickup style project could you do a wood bed?! Balsa wood is great for these projects and takes stain very well. Would take your customs to another level. Btw I have one request. Would be great see a Red line done in your style with some custom wheels and candy paint

[@adamfoster5334]

Love the custom builds!!! Surf board? What about hockey equip? Just remember if they don't find you handsome they should at least find you handy!

[@TheRockinDonkey]

That looks great. I love the paintjob. That metallic green really pops.

[@KrisH-kp9vx]

Mid 80's I had a 65 Omni Bus..... Funnest fucking thing to drive I have ever owned. If I wasn't so young and stoopid I would still have tha bus and be somewhere on a different continent. It was that durable and cool. Kodos my friend! Love this stuff!

[@bobbymillionaire1825]

Really like your neon sign intro. Plus I was cracking up when you exposed yourself and said sorry about the nudity and then showed technical difficulties. :) Man you got the talent - great video and die-cast creation - thanks for your time.

[@christopherharker1780]

Another bad ass build keep up the great work brother

[@MilesModelWorks]

This is one 1 of the best custom hot wheels cars ever!!!

[@debrarandolph5783]

My name is Randy and I watch your builds all the time

[@mmotorhead]

I like your confidence on go ahead despite the challenges. Congratulations.

[@Tiger351]

Super cool build, green and white always works VW buses!

[@SC-mq1eh]

duuuuuuude so sick! screw plain jane matchbox factory restos - this needs to be a custom paint and mods only channel

[@jp2246]

Of all your builds, this is definitely one of my favorites, it would be awesome in real life to have one, if so, in a mint green and white two tone

[@raythackston1960]

I love that original VW custom. I think you did a real good version of it. I will say when I saw it in person it looks like the trailer part was added on to for like a window section. But still great job.

[@deepjunkgarage]

That's allot of killer work ! I have a thing for air cooled VWs and the truck on it's own is a work of art.....but put the two together? Forget about it ! 🍻

[@PhantomDragonEternal]

This build was exactly your style, and it played onto your strengths. That being said, this was an amazing customization! You can't even tell where the cuts & putty were!

[@jovintagle2372]

Hope we have that JB putty here in my country. Works like a dream. 😅

[@waynejohn5828]

Pure craftsmanship, I love how finished and polished your projects look, a lot of love being put into them

[@jordanbrige8848]

You could pull a beach bomb and make either a cool holder on the side as an afterthought or shove it in the back

[@donaldswink6259]

Dr.Diecast, Super nice Job. Liked how you notched the cab to the bed.

[@pnuhn1]

Incredible work. Time to hit the beaches! Well ok not now as it is 35 degrees F on the coast.. later. yes later.

[@jamesh5460]

Cool intro and awesome build!

[@sithlordst32]

Tabernack you just raised the bar again with this build, excellent work Sir. BTW, is that a prison tattoo I saw on your left arm?

[@brazwewn]

I knew you would dig that milliput out the second you said it was going to be used. It does have its uses but not for what you were doing. Good call on going back to JB Weld.

[@Guitarrockstar5683]

That was an amazing build why would anyone down vote that video?

[@clover1125]

Wow!! Great job. You only get better..

[@madmax0814]

A lot of work but so worth it. Super-clean result 😉👍

[@2H80vids]

There can't be many of these about - real ones or models. Brilliant job with the masking; made it look so easy. I'd love to see more builds like this.👌

[@darkfysh]

Man, 😢 I miss you.

[@uberquellen]

What a killer build. It turned out great.

[@ConkysGhost]

I find Milliput works great when working with plastic more than diecast metal.

[@Roamin_RomanTheWarrior]

This guy is the fucking Canadian Godfather of Diecast Custom/Restoration

[@simplysimon9868]

Looks way cool. Great job as always and cool idea. Seen a couple of split screen buses with a caravan/box camper type with an aluminium finish in full scale. A company called Cool-Flo have one and could be a fun build. The sleeping area over the cab.

[@stevemarquez8022]

I love it Austin, your skills have increased so much since your beginning's. This is one sweet ride!

[@kameronsnyder4928]

Awesome build. Hotwheels does make a track truck version of this. Not as specific tho.

[@brianartillery]

Absolutely beautiful. A mad idea, but it works. Nice one.

[@msc_1974]

Great video and even better to see you using millimetres to measure things instead of those dinosaur inches :)

[@revzillo]

That is an awesome job Ace ,,fantastic looking camper combo

[@wraith20072007]

I was blown away by this one Bruh.

[@colonel9990]

You have major talent. Enjoy watching your videos.

[@tireland62]

Outstanding. You are a craftsman. Truly a great job

[@BryanTheGravedigger]

Ah man you beat me to it! I finally found two donor M2 vw bus’ today. I have been tooling with the crew cab Ford COE project I started months ago. Looks awesome, thanks for the inspiration.

[@garagedweller7159]

Just watched this again.Getting my fix from re-runs. Hope you are back soon.

[@billbaggins9961]

Very cool. looks great. I think you could make a roof carrier rack for the surf board. Just an idea..

[@kylerlampkin4284]

I liked the van conversion.

[@MrTbone127]

Man! you hooked it up, and that paint job is way sick bro!!!

[@RJDCR]

kool , thanx...Jimmy's camp-oot rig....sweet Robert

[@tangohunter1548]

Man... Your work needs to be in magazines! Bub you have class and it shows! That's so BOSS!

[@Nilejnal]

Please make more diecast Content i love it

[@DiecastResurrection]

Video out in a few hours.. this one is really cool!

[@Nilejnal]

@@DiecastResurrection Nice👌🏻 my boy

[@BulletNoseBetty]

Excellent build! Thanks for all you do.

[@24dcooks]

All the work u put into it definitely shows...AMAZING.

[@crimson4502]

Thank you for all the filing and sanding, heck ALL the hard work. It looks incredible !

[@jerryjohnsonii4181]

Awesome VW custom build !!!!!!!!!

[@T2sEpicTravel]

Let's go for a camping 😁😎

[@duaneaaron2267]

I love the flange idea. I do a ton of stretching and shortening on castings and having a flat edge on each panel can be undurable at times. This will help a ton!

[@dianasimiand8520]

Oh for sure

[@solitairesmith3553]

Your creativity is AMAZING. loved the flange cut you did on the TRUCK part. I'm always looking forward to seeing the next video to see what you have created. And My GOD YOUR PAINT JOBS ARE SOOOO GORGEOUS

[@dudley7540]

Can't wait to see the full-size!

[@JudgeAutomotives]

Same 😂

[@doomspire7032]

someone needs to make this in real life

[@michaelmoss5976]

Your best build, IMO.

[@SlickDiecast]

Amazing skills and creativity. Thanks for sharing.

[@clydebalcom8252]

Looks good. Although the extending roof would look good too. Another thought is a roof rack with a few items.

[@ericorozco7667]

I like the build it is very cool😉

[@kenwinston2245]

Regular car bondo is easy to work with, I'm not sure how it would be on scaled down models but it might be worth a try. Good looking project thanks for sharing the vid

[@rickyvieira1808]

Cab could have used a rear window some of your best work nonetheless keep em coming

[@strivingx67]

I really like watching your fabrication work. It's a thing of beauty. Great final product man. Came out kick ass!

[@philipmccabe6163]

Definitely a box project, but the final results are awesome! Obviously you put a ton of time and thought into this and it really shows

[@andrewturnbull5897]

A glorious conversion! Paint is perfect, concept was cleanly executed and the details were spot on! I’m gonna suggest a Zamboni challenge amongst you great diecasters! Invented in California and embraced as a mascot here above the 49th! Also perfect for start of hockey season and Christmas . . . all the little timbits will want one!

[@MrStag-rq1lf]

Groovy

[@cpearson7372]

Flippin, eh!! That is Super Schweet!

[@50spirithealer]

Nice little build! Enjoyed the video!

[@zerosan5658]

3:17 another simple thing rather than using a epoxy putty you can also use PLA plate

[@enriquevilla3595]

Anyone cring at the thought of a real travel trailer with propane tanks mounted out back being re-ended?

[@megamaxtixyt992]

I'd definitely love a real version of this. (Full size and everything) would definitely be great. 👍

[@silverpatriot568]

Dude you made some great Customs but this takes the cake love Volkswagen's two thumbs up 👍👍

[@jeffhreid]

That thing is wicked cool!

[@travelersdiecastcustoms1511]

That turned out Awesome👍👍👍

[@jenford7078]

You nailed it! Your paint is always top notch and the reshaping done on this... Genius! 🧠

[@FosilWeb]

Congratulations Nice Video 👏🏻 🙋‍♂

[@joefrazee537]

Another stellar job!

[@SuperKittykat04]

Cool idea! Looks fantastic

[@stevedingman3753]

You never cease to amaze me...

[@hestheMaster]

Brilliant execution! Love how it turned out. 💚You should listen to your viewers, some great idears there!😍

[@misterbuklau4053]

Genius idea, cool build i wouldve never thought of such a build

[@hotwheelsbrothers687]

Jd project can do something like this.........

[@Zepphd2]

Bad ass!!! Turned out great!!!!

[@vanthdreadstar8039]

Man, that was an insane amount of work. I think the end result was definitely worth it. Beautiful job.

[@bennietolbert5755]

Awesome 👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@brutlern]

Thats a real nice build... but wait... are you're trying to distract me with nice cars so I wont notice that the ol' rotisery looks like a new rotisery?

[@861LJ]

Nice! Good job! Worth the time and effort!

[@351xb1973]

How about a jet truck one day. 🤔

[@davesempire8287]

Really like this one. Looks super.

[@theroadrunnermiepmiep341]

I make the moment so that I get with a buddy from a half buddy (also siku) a beginner, but comes the trailer coupling ......... best regards from Germany

[@prestoneaster9175]

You finally did it

[@jeffbaker2897]
