Badass build 👍👍👍👍

[@geoffxx12]

You know this is a great build when it puts a smile on your face and you're just watching it. I can't imagine the fun they had in this thing man.

So much fun especially in the backseat! Couldn’t stop laughing

That thing sounds so sick it sounds like a pissed off trombone!

[@jasonmacneil2256]

Can you even imagine getting to work with your Dad side by side, day after day?? What a huge blessing! I'm sure they have their "moments", but I'd bet its great for the most part!!

[@AutotopiaLA]

You’d be surprised how they get along all the time. They just love playing together even when it’s not with vehicles. Special relationship those two have

[@PokèMyBalls]

*That sentiment makes me anxious and I want to call my therapist!*

[@williewade1]

That is one hell of a van. I love that squat, and when you get on it, she really drops it low. Now, the exhaust is beastly, heavenly. angry and music to the ears.

[@Foxtrot1967]

Sick! Utterly fantastic when builders fuse old school classics with modern day technology & horsepower

[@AutotopiaLA]

So good!

[@larryh7760]

Brad can drive anything and do it pretty well. And they are both completely nuts. Always entertaining. I love that van!

[@briankinnear7461]

Very cool and crazy Econoline. Remember driving in these things back in the day....I'm 68. Shag carpetting, disco balls hanging from the ceiling, heck I know a few guys that even put water beds in them. None of them were finished or powered like this one. Be safe and stay well.

[@ghostinthetreeline]

It doesn't get any better than a DeBerti build man. These guys rip and build cool stuff. Excellent ShopRod in 90 days, crazy. And the amount of in house stuff they do like building their own chassis, they didn't order one in. As Always, excellent work by the AutotopiaLA crew shooting and producing great content and Shawn with the excellent coverage/discussion points. You guys rock man.

[@AutotopiaLA]

Thanks and no doubt the DeBerti’s are the best. Such a fun time being around them and definitely more to come

The Debertis are insane! Their vibe is totally owesome man.

[@Cartalk336]

Tuning in from Greensboro North Carolina. Your reaction to riding in the back of the van is so hilarious to me and I thought it was pretty dope that they did the harness for you to make sure you were comfortable and safe and protected.

[@AutotopiaLA]

That “harness” set up was hilarious! These guys are the best

I'm not going to lie. This is one of my favorite videos. You guys really know how to set the crowd. It was really nice to him smile as much as he did. Glad to see you build a badass vehicle, and have some fun.

[@AutotopiaLA]

This is one of my all time favorite shoots! It was so much fun with those 2 and that van is awesome!

[@thebees4371]

Bro they seem cool as heck.

[@rodz7910]

Omg!!!! That is the SICKEST van ever!!! Wish I was a passenger too, everything about it is amazing, much respect. The father son combo is so precious, great attitudes. PMA!!!

[@AutotopiaLA]

One of the best rides I’ve ever experienced!

[@jpvdw1961]

Finally... I've spied that van in the background a couple of times. Awesome build. Thanks!

[@Bob-ww7ot]

What an amazing father/son team. They love what they do and have fun doing it. They build amazing stuff.

[@AutotopiaLA]

They’re a special team for sure. Not only having fun but building unique rides that actually work

[@CyberDocUSA]

OMG! I'm shitting my pants and I'm not even in the back seat of this insane van. I'm in tears and you will definitely get a video in action. Thank you so much! Wow. This is surreal and thanks a bunch! Ima promote both channels as always and man, this is killer!

This is AWESOME I am a huge van guy, building a 90 Dodge B250 for my business with a 5.3 LS, Truck Norris Cam, TBSS Intake, etc.

[@mattjohnson7316]

Ford made and makes the coolest vans ever from the original supervan that was a van body on a gt40 chassis to the new supervan with over 2000hp is so cool they do stuff no other company has done.

[@josephmatuszak3855]

Oh boy that looks like a fun seat there in the back!

[@Davivd2]

I love paint jobs that make you want to reach out and touch them. That's a sweet ride.

[@280zone]

These guys are a hoot, glad we got a look at that van but not sure I could have stomached riding in the back.

[@AutotopiaLA]

That backseat ride was a blast! They’re the best. So much fun hanging with them

[@CyberDocUSA]

Right from jump street I knew Brad and Doug were some twisted chimps (that's a compliment). This van brings back memories that I'd forgotten about with this van. Omg. *_Back in the day when you were still sperm..._* Little Zygote - we called him 'Goatie.' The banter and comaraderie between these two and your three combined was a lot of fun to see and hear. Totally chilled while being intense and relaxed. Much love.

Awesome build! Ive got a 73 econoline my father n law built for drags. 460 with some juice runs low 10's on the juice. He won several nationals with it back in the early 90's. Was in several fast ford magazines. Its a crazy build and is crazy fast for being a full size van. Great stuff guys!

[@Joesmdma]

Hallo from Germany. I love this content, very cool people and unique cars. @Shawn: i see an feel your passion to this cool lifestyle. The last time there is more an more funny action in your videos too. In Germany it is impossible to drive such crazy builds on the street without getting in jail. P.S. sorry for my school English 😅

[@Jansson18]

Writing from Sweden. No f'king idea how I missed this channel but think ive watched like 80% of it the last few days. You can really see the progress from the first videos to the later ones. Im really jealous of you btw =) But you can really tell how much you love this so congrats buddy! Big thumbs up!

[@franklinlinebarger5851]

I watch and was blown away! You all took that build to 5 stars build hands down.😮 I was looking at all the ways you built that. Being able to have that much knowledge is insane. You all are definitely using NASA technology. But what caught my attention overall was the back seat. To me it looks like old school dragster. If an person ever wanted that experience, well that's pretty close. Awesome job. Thank you for the video.❤

[@AutotopiaLA]

It was a blast riding in that back seat!

[@weekendwarrior556]

This is up there as one of your most unique features ive seen in awhile. Excellent video!

Great comment! Way outside the box

Love a million dollar trailer queen for inspiration... But a car show lasts for an afternoon??? Backyard Budget Builds last all year long 👌🤠👍✌️

Well done guys well done. Anyone watching this video has just got to be smiling all the way. Wonderful build wonderful chemistry.

[@FrisellFan01]

Well, for a 1 off as this is....I have never imagined anything like this.....endless power and the sound is addicting....that exhaust sound drives me nuts! And this was the 1st time I saw or ever heard of these guys..... and I am now subscribed to watch the videos.....great stuff.

[@JayTalksinjury]

My buddy, years ago, he had just had his 1963 econoline with the 3 on the tree restored.. Fire engine Red is just beautiful. As we are rolling along a road towards an intersection that went to a T in December with some snow on the ground and just see a sheet of ice ahead of us. He hits the Non-abs brakes and we end up hitting a 1986 Ford Exp 2 door . Little car but it spun us parallel with the car and as No seat belts in an Econoline i put my arm out an touched just behind my buddies head and Left my Right Femer imprint in the Engine cover about 20 inches long . Still there to this day, and that definitely is not a straight 6 .. Beeeeeautiful ❤😊

[@Brad772006]

If someone had just told me about this build without seeing it. I would have thought nothing but a nightmare pile of parts. Although knowing those DeBerti fellas and seeing this. I really like this quirky van build.

I grew up watching car stuff with dad building a 1969 Camaro in the garage. Saw DeBerti from back in the day when his big SEMA Fords were on Discovery channel shows and whatnot. Anyway watching Autotopia and DeBerti channel is like I'm hanging with my dad again. He passed 11 years ago.

Doug was on one during this😂 it’s a badass van especially keeping in mind it was 90 days start to finish so there’s things coulda/shoulda been different, but once a couple revisions are made it would perform flawlessly. Like I said though it’s badass and better than what most could do with it in a year or more.
