Ambulance Camper | Bodywork (ft. a lot of rust)

In episode 2 of the series, Max McMurdo discovers lots of rust and quickly realises that this might be a bigger project than he first thought. Not afraid of the challenge, Max gets to work to get the bodywork looking like new.
To get the off grid campervan look he gave the bumpers a lick of hard wearing Raptor paint, fixed the wheel arches and added some new off road tyres to the ambulance. It may not all have gone as smoothly as he might have hoped but by the end the ambulance looks ready to tackle anything.

That cardboard was probably the previous AS, we are great at improvising to get them back on the road as quickly as possible 😂

[@SilverlineToolsTV]

You guys...

[@WingingItBoatingonaBudget]

Looking good... can't wait to see the work start on the campervan part.

[@SilverlineToolsTV]

It's quite the transformation 🚑

[@s.h1504]

surely only needed to take front wheel off to get to the rusty wheel arch 😊

[@max_mcmurdo]

I wish! 😂🙈

[@intovision8743]

Hi I’m amazed watching your videos !! I am buying ex ambulance soon and I would like to ask if you do convert vans please ??

[@SilverlineToolsTV]

Not vans, but keep and eye on the channel and there might be more campers coming soon! 🚙

[@intovision8743]

@@SilverlineToolsTV sorry I meant if you convert ambulances into camper vans for money ? :) cuz I would love to convert one and looking for someone who does it as good as you ! :)

[@RocketChild]

are the lights still powerful enough with the film over them?

[@max_mcmurdo]

Yes I upgraded the bulbs but these are for styling purposes only really for shows!

[@Biketouring]

Great video:) Could you share the brand of the bumper paint please.

[@SilverlineToolsTV]

Of course, it's Raptor paint. You building your own camper?

[@Ploggy.]

👍

[@SilverlineToolsTV]

[@seanhession4103]

What about the rust behind the bumper??

[@SilverlineToolsTV]

Didn't want to make the video too long by tackling AAAALLLLLLLL the rust in one episode. But we're sure Max has it under control

[@max_mcmurdo]

It was surprisingly good behind the bumper so just brushed off the surface rust 🙌🏼

[@willsta21]

Should of at least opened the bonnet for the lights!
