RV Renovation - HUGE PROJECT UPDATE! Solar Panels, Custom Bathroom, Appliances, and More!

[@rossibrennan5754]

Careful Eric: Allison might see that ladder as a ....step up from you

[@Theendlessadventure]

Best joke of the day, so far! 🤣

[@raghavmalhotra4209]

nice one :'))

[@CravingCanada]

Lol.

[@apollo4657]

Absolutely nothing wrong with wood in the shower as long as it can air out. That should actually be really nice. Can’t wait to see it.

[@ScottyToaster]

I am SO impressed with all of your renovation work. For two people with basically no construction skills, everything looks like it was professionally built. GREAT job!

[@lindadobson7102]

The ladder "commercial" was hilarious!

[@sharonweitendorf1712]

Love the google eyes on the ladder, lol

[@stephenhavilland]

You guys have worked SO HARD, and it shows. The RV looks absolutely STUNNING. You are on the top of my list for must-watch videos. The icing on the cake is that you are so much fun to watch!

[@gnomealone350]

You have learned so much…you must be so proud of yourselves. You took COVID lemons and turned it into lemonade!

[@hankster9940]

Funny for the first 10 minutes I’m thinking to myself, I hope they get weighed. Two other things for you and forgive if already mentioned. You should loom the wires on your roof and think about some vents or louvers where your inverter goes. You guys are the most handy people I’ve seen. Keep up the great work!

[@jodydewey3516]

I recommend baby drawer locks on all the drawers or they will open while driving. You may need two for the fridge

[@Theendlessadventure]

Ya, we forgot to mention that we actually added one to the fridge slide already, but we'll definitely need them for all the other doors/draws. ATM, we're juts holding them shut with rubber bands 😅

[@EarMaster55]

@@Theendlessadventure Make sure to get some that can be switched between locking and unlocked so you can leave the doors unlocked when you stay somewhere.

[@sharonweitendorf1712]

Yeah I was thinking the same

[@vegasfordguy]

I've been watching the RV renovation from the beginning. I'm pretty critical and don't give out compliments easily. With that said, you two knocked it out of the park!!! You guys should be extremely proud of what you've accomplished. It looks amazing!

[@cjcj6945]

Y'all have done an absolutely impressive job on the "Ole Girl"!!! So glad you filmed the project for us, but especially for yourselves! You'll always have great memories on this time of your lives. So proud of you both.🌟💞🌟

[@AdanAli1]

3 videos in a week, more of this pleaseee!

[@kevinfleming9919]

Get the synthetic wood for the shower! Looks just like wood and you can get a variety of colors includinga light pine style, "Coowin 3D wood plastic composite panel/wall siding", it's completely waterproof, goes on like clapboard/siding (so no exposed nail holes for water to get through or have to seal up), environmental friendly, over 5 year warranty. Also make sure to add a bar across the shelve so you can store shampoo, etc there without it falling out while driving and a couple dividers to keep stuff in place without sliding back and forth! Loving the look and the job you guys are doing and the blue looks cool in the kitchen. You're probably gonna want to get up to 300-400 watts on your solar panels if you are planning a lot of off grid (no power hookups) camping. P.S.- Get a bottle of Redline's "Water Wetter Super Coolant" to add to the radiator. It can keep the engine temp down 30° which will be helpful with the RV'S weight in hilly/hot areas!

[@cindyfleer2248]

Love the shelf idea. Make sure it slightly tilts into basin so the water drains into the basin! Can’t wait to see the progress! 🚌👍🌸

[@mattmayo3539]

Excellent move on the rebuild. The modular GM small block 350 is a work horse and very capable engine. Be aware that you can only put some much gear in your rig. You really don’t want to over load and older chassis.

[@hellsbells112]

Some of the most likeable, industrious, intelligent American KZbinrs around! Love you guys! Greetings from DownUnder!

[@SchoandJo]

Watching you guys navigate DIY and this RV renovation makes me feel better about our boat projects as we are equally naive. Thanks for keeping us entertained and keep up the good work!

[@lauralenau590]

Yay! It's good to see ol' Betty out of the shop and rolling down the road. She's looking really nice, you guys! How exciting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

[@EQ3282]

Another entertaining entry! One note: You may want to consider some wind blocks around the solar panels. It would help with the aerodynamics and also help those screws from working loose.

[@x35mmman]

watching van life video for over two years snd never heard of wind blocks....sounds good to have on the top of van or RV

[@paulolson]

The interior is looking just ASTONISHING. Wow.

[@itsrobert3194]

Yeah!! More videos, I am loving the RV renovations videos!

[@Theendlessadventure]

🙌🙌

[@OneCouplesAdventure]

Cant wait till the day it finally all comes together, it's going be so emotional lol 🤣 You have worked so hard you should both be super proud of yourselves.

[@gregyohngy]

Does your refrigerator have enough clearance for proper air flow? Add slots to the cabinet for additional air.

[@redpinesahomesteadingprepp2440]

Stunning job and entertaining talented young couple.. I am 61, doing a "partial" restore on my 1988 Rallye and I love seeing young kids (youre kids to me lol) doing something like this and making this lifestyle work for you... I have "borrowed several of your ideas and pray mine comes out half as good. God Bless both of you!

[@Stephanie-Gillespie]

I am loving this RV renovation!! It’s starting to really all tie together now. Lol did anybody else’s gut clench when Eric was waving around the nail gun 😂😂

[@Amarieb29]

What a cute way to work in the sponsor! Everything looks great.

[@catherineturner2839]

Wow, what a transformation All your hard work is really paying off and it's been such a pleasure to follow you on your journey. It looks amazing

[@allegra1236]

I keep remembering the movie “The long long trailer “ with Lucille ball and Desi every time I see you in your ‘new’ camper. You should really watch that on your trip! You’d get some camping tips and laughs. Safe travels

[@jenniferfredin7174]

You guys are so weird! I love it!!!! 🤣❤

[@BucketListTravellers]

Seperate toilet and shower is definitely the way to go. It's all coming together so well! 😁

[@Mel.H_]

Yay! She's coming along great! Still so amazed you guys have basically done all of this on your own! Impressive!

[@belindadavies8683]

Pat yourselves on the back. 😀 Great job. 👏

[@johnc3403]

..you can't beat an erotic ladder scene and some low-down dirty blues! ..and the song "How Blue Can You Get" ?? Great video as always guys and the RV is coming along brilliantly. Some really clever use of space. Well done.

[@jzakary1]

YEAH! Solar Panels!!!

[@SoxRoxBoston]

Congratulations on the RV being underweight. You're almost done with the inside... Great 👍

[@januzzell8631]

Is it just me or does the wallpaper round the kitchen bit look like endless letter A's - or am I reaching? :D - It all looks great and you two are doing a wonderful job

[@clintthomas1854]

Eric, you guys , you guys... Alison, youall Love that Texas slang Van looks great

[@bt5080]

So much room! It doesn't look anywhere near what it started out. The colors are spot on and they do look good with the window trim. Was amazed at the bathroom. I agree, a small bathroom sucks on the road. Also, you will save a ton of money not having to use outside bathrooms. It looks like you both learned so much from your dad. I too wonder about that wood tub. It'll be fun to see your secret.

[@seaking526]

Don't forget ventilation; the cabinets will need it if they are to keep fresh. Try leaving the doors open when you are not on the road, but don't forget to lock them before setting off. Good Luck and congratulations on all the hard work.

[@janadachingwa9234]

Both of you have done a wonderful job on the RV. Keep up the good work. Stay safe and be careful on the roads. Walk in Peace.

[@qtchiki23]

So excited for you guys nearing the build! Can’t wait to see your travels in “the ol’ gal” and #vanlife our toilet’s in the shower lol 😂

[@lrfox49]

I love you guys individually and as a couple...never stop!!

[@revidual]

Back the Truck up! 'Expanding family'?

[@garywest3763]

For Wood Creaks, a Great Wood Lubricator is "Bar Soap", rub the Bar Soap on both contact areas, and that should do it. A Note, is that if the creaking sound comes back reapply as needed.

[@TheMumfordMob]

We are HERE for this renovation!! 🎇

[@nathankveene]

As a precaution against your door warping and/or sagging I suggest installing a couple diagonal cross braces - that’s pretty typical of doors glued together out of numerous boards.

[@sallyjones7737]

I thought you 2 guy's were crazy when you got this old van to renovate, knowing next to nothing about what was involved in the renovation .....but I think you have done am amazing job and you should be so proud of all you have done cant wait to see the van completely finished .....and see you off on the first road trip to more Endless Adventures... Bon Voyage!!

[@debbiewynne8108]

I love your vlogs so much, the first thing I do is check out how long they are "let it be a long one, let it be a long one" The RV looks stonking!!! 💜

[@lrfox49]

Okay I have continued to watch past video's and just saw the one where you hit 100,000 subscribers, and I don't personally know what makes some people succeed with YT and others don't but I actually enjoy each of you because your real and you are the coolest couple...I like the couples that have great relationships. Bless you to continue to enjoy life together!

[@raghavmalhotra4209]

Back-to-back videos! couldn't get any better 😊

[@timothymishalmalvaso9331]

LOVE your RV. We miss your super cool intros.

[@mattwuk]

You guys make my day with positive vibes I get from your videos 👊👊 massive love and respect from the UK

[@petematthews9346]

Around 7:25 - Incredible cosmic power…iddy-biddy living space.

[@olgabombard6277]

The RV looks great! You two are just so cute and hilarious!

[@linpin9343]

Wow 🤩 it’s looking spectacular.

[@joanhall3718]

So happy to hear you’re getting the engine rebuilt. I worried that you were putting so much time and money into your beautiful vintage RV then it would break down. Love watching your progress.

[@aperry4333]

She's really coming together, y'all have done an amazing job!

[@GODISMYSTERIOUS]

The van would draw attention on a road. It looks very unique.

[@AlwaysSunnyColorado]

This renovation is has been amazing to watch and we love you guys so much. We bought an RV in August of 2020, named it Sunny, and have had a blast adventuring in it as often as possible ☀️ If you’re ever headed to Colorado, give us a shout and we’d love to show you some awesome RV spots 👏 big love!!

[@watchdealer11]

So proud of you Kara and Nate for finishing your RV journey!

[@watchdealer11]

Eric and Allison, I hope you know I'm joking about the names! 😂

[@effie-Toronto]

Kara would never do the things Allison has done

[@MapManLK]

Such great improvements to your van! It's been terrific watching you two redo the van. That bathroom is going to be amazing. Continued good luck!

[@-theshape-6053]

soap the door , it should help. bar soap, plus they help keeping bugs away

[@aliross8744]

You should graffiti the wallpaper. The plain geometric pattern lends itself to overlaying cool art - you have probably seen that on your travels in the US and Europe. Rome for me is the best. Inside space, outside aspect - a rolling creative statement of the many cultures/societies you have experienced. You can be a rolling art gallery. Safe Journey.

[@TheEvergreens]

The wheels are looking fly, guys! Thanks for the bonus video this week.

[@adeelester]

Yay! I’m so excited for this video! Glad things are starting to work out 🙂 it’s really starting to look like a home ❤️

[@Theendlessadventure]

Right?! We're so excited to see it coming to life 😍

[@jameshaddan8538]

You two should be very proud - it’s looking amazing - well done! In full honesty, when I saw the shape of that RV originally, and all the work it needed, I wondered if it was too big of a job. But you both persevered and have accomplished so much. Great teamwork!

[@AbandonedCanada-333]

Wow! Fantastic guys! Love the wallpaper. I hope you put a lock on your fridge drawer, or it will slide open when you turn corners lol, but great fit! Also, I love your bathroom idea and I'm so happy you use wood everywhere you can! I'm a big fan of wood. I can't wait for you to start travelling in your RV. Loved the video! Thanks for sharing.

[@jesset9585]

the ladder segue!!!! LOLOL

[@Theendlessadventure]

🪜❤️

[@davebruce3754]

great progress guys. I love how positive you two are, that makes it more enjoyable to watch. Good luck with the Motor work. Cheers from Ontario

[@williamsneedjr4129]

When you do the engine make sure you service the transmission

[@fredkeller3813]

I've really enjoyed the work that you guys are doing on the old RV. But if I may add my two cents worth please... Forget the idea about having a rooftop porch/patio... The more you walk up there the more holes you could put into your roof, the older you get the less you're going to want to climb that ladder, and if anybody falls off there it could be deadly. God bless and be safe! Looking forward to your first trip in the RV!

[@tedbiernacki376]

Inside of RV looks huge ! I like the blue sink. You can try good old bar soap to try and get rid of the squeek, just rub on potential surfaces!

[@stephaniemomof9746]

The rv is looking amazing!!

[@rebeccarendle3706]

So exciting😊.. Almost done👏.. I would have nightmares about mould with a wood-wall shower. Can't wait to see how you are going to address this issue.

[@melissaknitter7611]

Are you planning for any sort of latching system for the drawers and cabinet doors to prevent them from flying open? Same with the fridge drawer?

[@RoxRM11]

The RV is looking amazing! You guys are so talented!

[@TheLiveOutLoudFamily]

Our friend’s solar panels flew off on the highway 🤣 good idea bolting them down! We plan on doing the same!

[@AL-grhvc]

WOW the interior is really turning out chic..Love the colors and all 👌👏👏 efforts are paying well 💪

[@1977foofoo]

The rv looks amazing!

[@ginafranciosi3252]

Expanding family ? ❤from 🇨🇦

[@H312l1na]

SO EXCITED TO SEE THE STOVE FITTING! 😆

[@alexander.druganov]

"True love right there"🙂. Awesome, keep going, guys!

[@dawnallen123]

I really am amazed at how this is coming out. Very impressed with you guys and all your hard work.

[@mariawinzler]

guys use felt material the thinnest one you can find to put in the door frame so it doesn't squeek. :)

[@k8eeff]

You guys seriously do *the best* sponsor ads.

[@ohjessika]

It is looking so dang good!!! Can't wait to see the wood in the shower, I'm intrigued now!

[@adventureshark631]

You guys have so much room in the bathroom.Have you looked at or considered a recirculating shower. You could install a 5 gallon tank and the filters (plus a 12 volt UV light) and just shower with 5 gallons. You can then dump it after a certain number of showers (you can check and see what seems right) and not use your fresh water. You can set it up with a y value that dumps the 5 gallons out or into the gray tank when you are ready for 5 gallons of new water. You can easily install the filters and tank in all that space behind the wall in back. Then just cary a 5 gallon water jug to fill the shower tank when you dump it. i installed one in my class c after looking at all (and I mean all) available videos on youtube. Happy to send you my designs if you want to take a look. Have a fun trip. And can you tell us what the shop is doing to help the RV. Also - did you guys name that RV yet??? PS stealing your step plan on my drivers side over the wine cabinet to access the front bed. Thanks.

[@hydrostream76]

Semper Fidelis ! You two have never stopped impressing me on the perfection of this build Time period colors too wow !

[@-RONNIE]

Everything keeps on looking better and better I can't wait to see it completely done - keep up the great work 👍🏻

[@brucesamuelson7541]

If you had put the faucet in the sink before installing it's way easier, and the voltage in series of 2-12v solar panels is around 40 so you must have ran them in parallel, and take my advice get 24v panels in series with an mppt charge controller, you'll be much more satisfied!

[@BEACHLIFE78]

Great video as always guys.The rv is looking awesome your hard work is paying off.Look forward to watching your upcoming trip , big 👍👍👍👍🙂

[@thalleshoward3962]

I am impressed the motorhome is looking awesome. You two did an excellent job.

[@Jer0nim0]

You guys are doing a really good job and that shower is bigger than the one in my house! 🤣

[@t.vanoosterhout233]

You talk as if you don't know what you're doing yet the results look pretty professional to me. After traveling all over the continent in your RV you might want to start your own RV-build-company!

[@cindland]

Did you account for pots and pans, food, appliances, bedding, supplies for the road, etc? It all adds up. Haha. Great job you guys!

[@georgianamartuneac7083]

The RV is looking great! I love the videos with the RV renovation.

[@PirateDynamics]

The finishing touch should be a Holley Sniper EFI system for that engine. You should hit them up, they seem to give a lot of them away to youtubers.

[@MRSHYYETI]

Great videos! P.S. That ladder is a keeper! PPS I will not confirm whether or not I got dust in my eye when you passed your weight test! Yay! Even Deeley was pleased!

[@StephenandAndie]

LOVING all the progress you’ve made. It looks amazing and the attention to detail is impressive! 👏 Omg, the “ladder” bit… 🤣

[@sarahbethsstitching9937]

You all should be so proud of yourselves

[@robinwilson2461]

I just love that I recognize the area where you all are staying to work on the rv. I’m from a town close to there.
