LAST DAYS living in a van without insulation | winter van life

[@Shihtzu99]

I used to work in auto industry and the rust proofing material you are referencing is really good stuff. It prevents water from getting into the seams as sheet metal contracts and expands depending on temperatures.

[@judis9184]

Do you have the name of the rust proofing material? Thanks!😊

[@robertbeck4748]

​​@judis9184 rubberized undercoating, gravel guard, rocker guard , ez liner , line x , raptor liner, rhino liner, ArmorThane are some .

@@judis9184detail shops use different ones but the product we used was from a company called First Canadian.

The cookbook is great!!!! So well done I am very impressed!!!

[@sheilabartlett6044]

I’m so happy that your van is getting fixed up so meticulously. Glad you had a place that you could stay I and move around, but it will be great to have your home back. There is no place like home!!! Stay safe over the weekend. Thanks for sharing Kelly as she is so affectionate, she is a beautiful cat! 🐈 ❤

Hey Emi the van is looking good. He’s doing an amazing job fixing the rust. Can’t wait for you to get your tiny home back. Thanks for sharing. You guys. Be safe out there and stay warm.🇺🇸♥️👍🙏🐈‍⬛🚐🏔️🇨🇦

Hello EMI Keep warm and comfortable . Hugs to you and kitty

[@christophgrail]

Aw, kisses for your sweet cat Kelly and warm hugs for you, dear Emi! Greetings and a nice first Advent weekend from Styria, Austria 🇦🇹, Christoph 😊😻🕯✨🎄

[@dawnmoriarty9347]

I remember my first van having frost inside on the roof. I was younger and tougher then. Definitely prefer heating and insulation now! I slept with my clothes inside the bed so they were bearable to put on when I had to get up

[@emoji5005]

Hello Emi and Kelly so good to see you both ❤I can’t wait to see your van once it’s all done.I’m proud of you Emi 😊

[@debbywebby7234]

I love that you are not a "hard seller" for your artistic creations!!

[@disneydianne1716]

So glad the repairs are moving alone. You’ll be so happy to have it fixed!

[@tinagilmore6373]

I love how nice your van looked, and am happy you are getting it fixed. Stay warm and safe!❤❤

I'm so glad that Kelly has gotten used to the sounds of the new van. She was head butting the camera for kisses-- punk rock Kelly! Looking forward to seeing the updated look!!!!

[@IzzyOnTheMove]

I'm getting the cookbook for my vegetarian friend as a Xmas gift!!! WOOHOO!!

[@victoriabaker4400]

It's really nicely done. Emi is an artist-of-many-trades.

[@equynenergie]

Cool to know you have a playlist for winter vanlife - thank you 😊

[@gman1003]

I have a Chinese heater and it’s just hooked up to my diesel tank on my van has worked fine for several years.

[@TCat13]

Already have the cookbook downloaded and love it! 💜 Also, the cards with Kelly on the front are so cute... I will give other people a chance to buy them first if they become available again, but if there is a surplus after Christmas because of the postal delays, I will happily buy more for next year 😸And I regret not buying the wildlife ones when I could (!), so I will look out in case more of those become available again.

[@petra6099]

Life is sweet and so are you and Kelly❤

[@user-dr2js7bv2i]

What beautiful waterfalls! I hope you get your van back soon.❤❤

[@nadine8724]

The body work looks Awesome!!

[@AmandaRidenour13]

That tiny mushroom in your hiking shot was so cool. You live in such an awesome area.

[@TheWeekendernv]

Wow! Didn’t know that about butane! Was looking at some portable stoves and now we’re going to pivot! Thanks! 🙏

[@yme4071]

Omg Kelly so cute!!!! 🥰🥰

[@janetfolkerts5827]

Stay safe..and TRY to stay warm. There is no way I could handle your temps. Living in FL when it gets below 70' I think it's a COLD winter day ! THANK you for sharing.

[@zak-a-roo264]

The rocker panels he put on look like they're gonna last forever!

[@tinabarrette963]

Love the current struggle. Makes you appreciate home that much more🙏🏻

[@BethDoublekickChick]

Your van is looking great! So exciting 🙌

[@GDixon-ch3yl]

You are awesome. I'm excited about you getting your repairs and improvements done I know it had to be a good bit of money. However it looks like a nice job! I'm grateful that Chrome was able to lend you his shop fan.

[@petra6099]

Your Van looks great! Beautiful waterval! ❤

[@annapacatang5079]

Those waterfalls are magnificent! Too bad it's taking long to finish your van's rust removal and replacement of parts. But, it will be so wonderful when it's done and you don't have to worry about it for many more years.🙌👌😊 Is it possible for you to stay in your own van for the weekend while Darrell spends time with family over the weekend?🙏 Whichever way, stay safe and warm. Love to you and Miss Kelly 💖🐈🥰

[@Susan-h9z]

Hey Emmie, no insulation or heater in mine. At least you have a heater 👌

[@donnanichols6838]

Well, so much for my theory that the time would fly by while you were waiting for your van to be finished. My bad.... but it's almost done ....getting closer. ... soon Emi, soon... love and hugs to you and miss kelly!!! ❤😊

I recently bought a new mug. I love it. I've only used it for cold so far but it works great It's definitely worth getting a good mug or thermos.

[@robynfedalen1777]

Great video. You are such a joy Emi and you make me smile. Kitty is still a ROCKSTAR!❤️✌🏻🐱

[@OutbackOntario]

wow first minute, is a view grabber. love the primitive van life video.. Reminds me of the night my heater died when i was uninsulated, still building, but living in it.

[@lindasteller]

I am so excited for you getting your van back. I cannot imagine being without mine for so long, although I have to say Daryl seems to have completed all this work fairly quickly. Blessings to you and Kelly! ❤😼

[@sheilacaine]

Oh Emi the van looks amazing so far. I ❤ it.

[@patsywhiddon1832]

I live in a house with more space than I need and I still have to get outside. I feel claustrophobic if I’m indoors for too long! Love your videos 🙏🏼

Hi emi and Kelly hope you have a wonderful weekend

[@jimbrown4180]

Insane u should be staying . At chromes shop up staires !!

[@bobrouse8634]

With the cold and the humidity, take care of yourself and keep your air as warm and dry as possible in order to not come down with pneumonia.

[@VanJolene]

Fyi, tape a little hot hands warmer pack to the butane can and it works so much better

[@Musicescape17]

I’m so glad you will be back in your home very soon. And have all the comforts of your home back. 🚐

Good for you emi,I give you lots of credit for living in the shop van. Hopefully soon you will be back in your home…Home Sweet Home….Cheers…

[@urbanharveystead6692]

I would make some kind of insulated bag to keep the butane from freezing

[@dreamingmusicgal]

Happy USA Thanksgiving to you and all the rest on here. Sorry that he found more rust, but it's also good he found it now. It can be fixed at the same time and not later down the road and have to do this all over. Miss Kelly is all about more more love today. She was kissing, rubbing and we even got a head bunt from her this time all rolled into one. They are rare and special from our furbaby kitties or for some anyways. My Rumi is not much of head bunt queen but loves to be petted and her ears rubbed. Blessings!!!

I sure hope kitty has lots of blankets to snuggle up in … they get colder than we do 😢 Happy thanksgiving 🍁

[@my_van_apartment]

You have the all in one Chinese diesel heater but you can get a version that can be plumbed into the vans diesel tank. I’ve got that and yes it’s nice not having to fill up a separate tank to run the heater.

[@rodneybooth4069]

The gym is a very smart move. POR 15 is a very good rust preventive.

[@Yvonneb_]

Emi and Miss Kelly great video. Kisses to Miss Kelly too. Hopefully you will get your home / van back soon. ❤❤ xx

What a nice water walk today. Does look invigorating! Warm hugs!

Happy Thankgiving😊

It’s going to look sweet, cat lady, the black looks great on there. Well, I’ll catch you on the next one until then. Peace and chicken grease😁👍👍👋👋😎

[@xavierlumley7997]

Living in my box truck with the granny attic and I've been through three Chinese diesel heaters, they have all worked fine they have problems with error codes, so I'm thinking I have to do what you did where is your installer and who did the Wabasso gas

[@virginiajorgensen8614]

That was a cold morning. I enjoyed watching your workout. That showed me a couple of exercises that I can try. The van is looking good.

[@lolobotello1816]

I ordered your ebook last night. I can't wait to try the warm potato salad.

You should try the sterno stove and canned fuel in the winter.
