Painting My OVERLANDER For Less than £60 - VANLIFE

[@fyiaustralia9686]

Something tells me this Landy is a keeper. The mechanics last forever with maintenance and you're making it your own place. Lots of space to refurbish inside. It's going to be greeeaaat!

[@LiamTheTerrible]

I’m in love with it

[@jewelliam5292]

I love Landies..... this is a perfect dream.... if I was going to own a camper this would be it!! Stunning!!

[@edelcampbell8344]

Looks ten times better in the green. I can’t wait to see what u do with the inside. This is definitely the most exciting build to date

[@justinmeah1986]

You mean a 1000x 😂

[@JJ2011JJ]

There are two types of people in this world. Those that are winners and those that shall we say don't. You sir are a winner. Can't fault you mate, you guys have done an excellent job...can't fault a tryer. Looks spot on, love watching your builds. Keep plugging away mate. J

[@LiamTheTerrible]

Thank you so much

[@dreadedscotslass]

Wow!!! 1000 times better. Looks proper minted!

[@chrismorgan4938]

Looking great, (from tiktok now I'm subscribed to KZbin) you are a great teacher and inspiration from concept to the construction you show the rewards from applying effort to your ideas. Manythanks.

[@tutsywutsy]

You can call it the Green Goddess now

[@grunt356]

It's looking well hard.

[@campervanzoso]

Looking good, I had an 1987 defender, loved it, easy to fix, like a big meccano car.

[@feralfreebirds]

OH Man....Liam id not seen your post few days ago...only the cliff hanger and it being delivered.....never know was gunna be an overlander....I SOOOOOOOOO LOVE THIS......i now want one of these too.....ace bab :) !!!!

[@Pugwash.]

Looking very good, the van too!

[@SandVan]

I remember roller painting my Landy several times over the ten years I owned her , brings back good memories 😀tha green makes it look mean as 😎👏👏👏

[@LiamTheTerrible]

It’s a good way of painting a Land Rover!

[@SandVan]

Yes especially when green laning , branches always mess up the paint 😬😀

[@chippy1238]

Nice to see another real landy been kept alive, great choice of colour 👍👍👍

[@fisherboy571]

Well-done Liam looks so much better

[@TOBY_AND_LUCYS_ADVENTURES]

Loving the Green/Black effect is so stealth, much better than the blue & grey.

[@thethousandstepsofhoneythe3742]

Absolutely gorgeous!!!

[@FiestyFoxy1971]

That was a job well done, the transformation is amazing just by putting on a lick of paint. I’m looking forward to seeing the inside build xx

[@malcolmgarrod1692]

Looking great

[@drewhodge3820]

Its amazing how some NATO paint can completely transform a vehicle, from something that doesn't look road worthy to a really tidy vehicle that your proud to drive.

[@michelelynn6914]

Good work the green looks so much better. Can't wait to see how you finish the inside.

[@EndersWorlds]

He looks all smart now in green and black, like it.

[@rosiebray9373]

Yep....looks very clean, much better...that's gonna be a fun vehicle. Wish I had that kind of clearance on my truck, there's no roads here, folk just tell ya to go that away and turn left at the cows.....Enjoy your new home, it's turning out great.

[@denisecafferky2248]

Wow. What a difference. It looks great 👍

[@naddy37]

Awesome! Can’t beat a good old Defender. Nice add ons too! LED headlight conversion as well! Niiiiice x

[@davepalmetto]

Have fun and take care and take it easy and enjoy it

[@lisx1070]

Most excellent. Love the green. nice 'camouflage'.

[@lisx1070]

Like, you'll be less obtrusive in any natural area

[@markwoodgate6279]

love the new van.. and a great vid on how you are transforming it. A great watch!

[@bearfootholistics]

Looks Stella, great job guys.

[@prodisco]

The view brings a massive smile to my face...it's awesome.

[@robclague8495]

Awesome, van looks superb Liam.

[@elizabethmaybrown6715]

Hi Liam, that Land Rover looks much better in NATO green and black, as a trainee trucker I would advise measuring the over-all height and get a height marker in the cab so you know the MINIMUM height of bridge that it will fit under! Also if you are lifting her you will have to start driving her like she is a truck with a high centre of gravity. I am going to paint my Iveco NATO green to blend in behind my Army 12x12 tent at 40's events! With black bumpers and side trim. I look forward to how she progresses

[@kevingalloway9338]

Looks great. You can tell this is the vehicle you wanted

[@oldskoowlpebblestravels]

Great job Liam looks very clean

[@theadventuresoflario]

Looks superb, best colour combo on a Landy....👌

[@craigdaboom]

Amazing what a lick of paint can do… and a shit ton of sanding! Looks a millions times better, can’t wait to see the inside transformation 😀

[@katebroome3505]

Looks awesome with the green paint job. Love the slap head bedroom, looks nice & cosy and out the way of the main living area, which is a bonus me thinks.

[@sharonfarrant4596]

Omg 😳 one word!!!! MINTED!!!!!!!

[@PixiesChannel12345]

You did a cracking job there mate well done it does look ten times better than before a huge like from me.

[@Marshy234]

It’s looking great mate 👍

[@philburr4075]

What a cool new van mate, can't wait for the finished product

[@spitNsawdust]

Ahhh yeah!….The Big Green Mean Machine! 😎👍

[@Jez-explores-outdoors]

I am loving watching this project. Can wait to see what you have planned for the inside.

[@jtothew4201]

You know what's awesome for taking some of that thick filler off a file rasp it's got a handle like a plane and you can get it nice and flat then put a really nice neat coat of filler over to fill the rasp marks. Thing looks awesome though, if the chassis is solid it's a very good buy although everything is repairable on those anyway.

[@richiebainbridge2608]

Passed a vehicle like yours on the A1 and it surprised me how fast it was going 70+ . It had ambulance faded out on its side and it too looked really good. Stealth has well and truly gone out of the window lol.

[@robertlee3734]

looking great fella nice one

[@davidwilkinson4382]

Welcome to the Defender clan. Looks nice

[@theabandonedhunter3604]

Wow, that looks quality what a difference!! Plus that view…. Absolutely awesome!! Great video Liam 👊

[@afordbabblecampervan7555]

NATO green, whatever happened to Beyond the Van.

[@Cat_theDrummer]

Wow!! Stunning! 💯

[@martinjones7631]

that green will blend in nice in those welsh valleys

[@jonathankeerie9129]

Great progress with the exterior. Million percent betterer.

[@PMacleod3000]

Looks 1000 times better mate.

[@petermcgurnaghan5175]

Careful with the lift kit Liam. I did the same on a Defender years ago. Made it very unsteady. I should have lengthened the radius arms to suit but didn’t. I removed the lift kit and sold it on. Went a different route with set of wider rims with 265/75 16 BF Goodrich A/T tyres and a set of wheel spacers

[@diandmartydownes1611]

Very nice looking good. X.

[@andrewgilbride7546]

This is going to be amazing, it seems bigger than your old van even though it’s not, perhaps it’s the bed over the cab saving space.

[@cheekycherriesfacepainting3550]

Looks bloody great fella

[@peggycearnach8034]

Lovely green Froggy 💗

[@WAVIAVI]

Actually looks like a Land Rover now, good job!

[@garymcintyre]

Looks great look forward to seeing what you do with this build

[@1fryatuck]

[@captaindave47]

[@WhipperdeetsAdventures]

Bud she’s truly looking amazing beautiful color, so wonderful seeing you happy 😊 I’m jealous, the more I keep looking at your new home, I keep searching one for sale ♥️♥️🤗

[@andrewrose6536]

Looking great, loving the NATO green 👌

[@nowhereman8422]

Looks awesome looking forward to seeing the inside renovation

[@greggferns3278]

Same paint I have for mine,,by the looks of it.Goes off like a 2 bob rocket,even thinned

[@Runitax]

The beast is looking good! It’s nice to see her getting a life back x

[@howardtennant5766]

By gum your van shore has had a birthday, looking good 👍👍👍👍

[@nigel9843]

Like your new van great colour.

[@rosswhittleton6277]

Back in the 80s me and a mate used to go off road in his ex army Land Rovers which were a V8 101 a long wheel base 109 and a 1968 Lightweight with cut away wheel arches, they were all painted in Nato Green. Yours looks terrific and brings back a lot of good memories for me. I hope you have as much fun as we did, I am one envious nearly 60 year old!!👍👍👍

[@rosswhittleton6277]

@@Mike_007.5 We're 18 years with 42 years experience!😉🤣

[@chrisappleton7191]

So glad I found you on tik tok you have inspired me so much. Im not far away in lincoln and self converted a mk7 transit nothing to your levels but still gave me the push to get where I am now!! Hopefully catch you on the peakies if im lucky! x

[@LiamTheTerrible]

Oh wow thank you buddy!

[@carlsadventures2361]

Looks really epic now Liam

[@branchsnapper2228]

Bloody awesome mate

[@trustedsource4631]

Gotta admit when you first revealed it i was like nah, but since youve done the paint work - yep its deffo a bit more you

[@tubedarren]

Love the colour, the chequered plate always looks the 🥜 on a Landy too 👍

[@AlwaysVanAdventure]

I really like Darren. He seems like a right top bloke. Van looking amazing already x

[@neilstokescvwshrewsbury7939]

All it needs now is a Big Red Cross love it

[@SuperRoverboy]

Looks mint fella. Don't forget to update the V5!

[@Quirky_vehicle_adventures]

Fit anti roll bars if it hasn't got any makes a big difference and will help with the high cog.

[@christate590]

Lookin soooo good Liam. Can't wait to see finished exterior result. Looks cool already.

[@rogercourt7270]

Looks very nice

[@shaunhardwick9759]

that looks bang on mate, i think i would have done it the same way

[@DustyKorpse]

Looking good Mate, proper job 👍🏻

[@stephenthoms9139]

Camouflage the front like a tank and leave the main cab as you've done It'll look great

[@jimmer1976]

That looks spot on 👌 it’s a nice incognito colour, I like it 👍

[@loopylou]

Congrats on the new home!!! 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻

[@johnallan5821]

Looking lots better pal can't wait for the inside of the van to be done 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙂

[@janinew233]

Wow! Amazing transformation on the outside. I can't wait to see what you do with the inside. It will look great as always 👍 😀

[@mcvicer]

Looking good fella

[@GaryMallissa]

Looks brill now 👍

[@chorkiesinavan2738]

Now that's a face-lift, looks really nice. Can't wait to see where you are going to take it. Take care 🐾🐾🐕

[@DA11NOON]

Looking good 👍 👌 😎

[@bramisheu8933]

Really looking forward to this build series, starting to take shape already

[@paulopenshaw1914]

Loving it. Lift kit is maybe what you need but familiarise yourself with the drive first as issues may arise such as propshaft vibration at certain speeds. Drive slow and steady upto 60mph before and after lift to check. Also so much difference in quality of kits... As said anti roll bars may help with stability on road but you'll have to fit 2" spacer blocks to allow for lift. This is so what I've been after. Enjoy 👍

[@David_11111]

very impressive what a little elbow grease does... van looks great :)

[@gerryhasell7828]

nice one, great work guys...now go get a brew
