[@LRose-72]

Yay glad ya back since last one. 👋👋👋👋👋

[@aliensprtcrico]

The overtime of that group of guys was great. But the work seems to be on another level.

[@RandonBrown]

Great to see some real action after so many episodes or more or less waiting over there at Skinner. Looks awesome!

[@GeorgeWalker-hg5yt]

Just soooo happy 😁 for you both Mitch and Lori, God bless 🙏

[@davidhomen4528]

I love the "ALL HANDS ON DECK" approach West Coast Interior has taken to get you in and out! What an awesome company!

[@MicBergsma]

Yeah very professional and organized team! I am impressed!

[@darrencoyle3290]

Hi I really enjoyed watching the upholstery people at work , great quality of work ..Kona is going to be a work of art. amazing Mitch ..cool

[@MicBergsma]

We enjoyed working with them!

[@mb2042]

These are really deddicated people, it was great seeing them work. Glad that Kona is getting the royal treatment.

[@MicBergsma]

It was great working with them!

[@BigRed80]

That’s awesome you guys came to Silverton! I was born and raised and still live here. I bought a 1964 beetle from Morrie a couple of years ago. They delivered it right to my garage, great guys. Very family oriented as well, which I respect! Too bad we didn’t know you were in the area at that time!

[@MicBergsma]

Such great people! That's cool!

[@andymiles6443]

Mesmerising, addictive to watch, loving the progress,

[@stevelozano9523]

Man, those upholstery guys are animals to get job done.👍

[@MicBergsma]

Inspiring huh?

[@pattyarbelaez2883]

Hello from Canada. This people are so professional and you guys are adorable and very dedicated to this project. Love it!

[@MicBergsma]

Thank you so much Patty!! 😊

[@ZenWithKen]

I'm not taking anything away from the other shop, but what a difference. Thanks for sharing!

[@MaShcode]

You can tell they’re pros by the they decant the glue resin. 😊 Beautiful upholstery skills and shop! ❤ Nicely edited.

[@MicBergsma]

[@markieuk889]

So pleasure to watch your Kona. Long journey from one place to the upholstery Firm. Great to watch and also nice to see how they do it. Wow 2 different shifts working day and nights. Looking forward for the next episode. Bless you all. 😊😊😊

[@jameslamb7300]

That was awesome! Craftsman at work is always cool to watch!

[@MicBergsma]

Agree!

[@mattgreven7615]

She really is beautiful! I hope you can get her insured for about $300,000. It's the most labor-intensive resto I've ever seen--I'd be afraid to take her on the road!

[@dennisleasock]

I’m building basically the same 13 to 21 conversion, I’ve watched almost every episode. A very hearty thank you to you and the talented people helping you, for the education I would have been hard pressed to find anywhere else. I wish you continued success and happiness.

[@MicBergsma]

That’s awesome! I hope your conversion is going very well with no issues 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@briandrum1]

Wha's the holdup? Where's the new video?! Come on man! We've been waiting patiently!

[@unclesheavy769]

Wow, very beautiful! real professionals, and so relaxed, they work hard, and long hours. the bus is really beautiful, very nice colors, good choice.👌👌👌 kind regards, Chester from the Netherlands.👍✌

[@dadedubbledee]

Looking awesome and coming together FAST now wowzers what a team

[@v12dot]

Looking good guys ❤️ Back in 1987 , I bought a 64 split camper from an old guy who owned it from new . Lots of rust on the floor and front wheel arches . I didn’t have much money at the time , with 2 kids , but being a bus mechanic I made my own panels and welded her all up . I had the trimmer re-trim the upholstery with bus seat moquette and set about painting her . I found a tin of dark blue paint and mixed it with some white , and came up with a shade close to yours 🤣 Believe it or not I only paid £450 for her , and sold her for £750 3 years later ! Thought I had done well 😢. Can’t wait to see yours finished …..TC 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@ar.channel06]

[@grahamstaddon9990]

Such amazing attention to detail

[@richardbrowne3641]

The interior is starting to look great!

[@MicBergsma]

😄👏🏼👏🏼 thank you!

[@richardbrowne3641]

@@MicBergsma I wish I learned Sign language in High School back in 1984. I couldn't understand anything you said. My hearing is deminished 60%40% in my ears. After you completely restore the clone VW bus with 20 windows. It will could be worth about $600,000.00 U.S. at MECEM or a BARRET JACKSON auto auction. You got a VW van people want to steal.

[@WalterFranz-su2yt]

Very nice good job wow🤗

[@acpaterson]

Amazing workshop., and such a different working attitude from the previous place. Think you made the right choice, Kona's gonna look amazeballs guys. 😎

[@MicBergsma]

It’s amazing, organized and professional, so blessed to work with them! Thank you! 😊

[@alfredweinzierl6080]

Wow ich kann mir jetzt schon vorstellen wie traumhaft schön dein Bus fertig aussieht Respekt für dieses Mamutprojekt verfolge diese Videos seit Anfang an und soviel ich gesehenhab ist der besser als er damals in Wolfsburg vom Band lief qualitativ ist das nichtmehr zu toppen. Da steckt sehr viel Liebe zum Detail drin .Alle die daran gearbeitet haben haben ihr bestes gegeben.auch jetzt ist das nicht anders mit welcher präzisen Selbstverständlichkeit diese Leute die Innenausstattung anfertigen und alles beziehen. Jeder hat da am Bus seinen Bereich an dem er arbeitet und keiner steht dem anderen im Weg. Ich möchte dir wärmstens empfehlen einwertgutachten erstellen zu lassen,denn sollte dir jemand reinfahren ,was ich nicht hoffe denn da würde mir mein Herz Bluten ,aber im Schadensfall kommt dir das Gutachten zugute. Den eine Versicherung zahlt immer nur den Zeitwert wenn kein Wertgutachten vor liegt. Bleibt bitte so wie ihr seid, ihr seid ein sehr sympathisches Paar.

[@bigsquatchsasfoot1964]

Lotta work that and a real nice pro job …bus is looking 🔥 Mic 👌👍

[@MicBergsma]

Thanks!

[@outdooraf]

I feel bad for Robert and all the kind workers who helped with this project. It was time to move on. I hope there's no bad blood there

[@Syl20]

Niceee I love the interior colors !!

[@LittleJimnyUK]

Everytime I watch your awesome videos I regret selling my Bay Window camper :(

[@MicBergsma]

Oh no!

[@zetacoremusic]

[@MicBergsma]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@jeffhoward5332]

Great Job you guys! I am working on my '71 Bay and a lot of the interior work ( full folding bench seat especially) is great information. Just ordered some stickers!!

[@GOAT86STUDIO]

NICE BUS!

[@MicBergsma]

Thanks!

[@robharris9656]

My 63 bus looks very much the same , Mine actually had much more extensive work done to it due to its condition, I did every bit of the work in my garage myself and it took about 2 years start to finish, including 6 month stint at Skinners to put on a long panel that I didnt want to do. I know how tense it must have been waiting so many years for Skinner

[@fernandorodriguez7489]

Que paso con episodio #75 estamos a la espera....mac...

[@WHJeffB]

Jesus... Sanding car body filler with no respirator. COPD is in your future guys, if you live that long.

[@bulliesboy]

It is looking awesome guys and those guys doing the work are incredible. Please give them my compliments on a job well done, all the way from Australia.

[@paulsenior18]

This may sound a bit weird, but the new place looks like it has a better feel to it, and their work ethos seems completely different, like they care more.

[@IleniaCore]

Agreed, but it is the approach that it is different. Here is a small shop with a project at the time, everybody on it. Skinner was a lot of different projects in the same time with probably not enough people

[@quitx8028]

Plus they got regular car insurance clients to keep the shop running i guess

[@MicBergsma]

@paulsenior18 Yes, yes, and yes!

[@dadedubbledee]

OMG I GOTTA KNOW WHERE DID YALL FIND THAT MYSTERY MACHINE COOLER?

I see on your website that the new shirts are sold out (?) already. Can I get on a notification list when you have them available again?

[@MicBergsma]

Oh no I will check and let you know
