24" bed is totally fine. Thats the standard for sun loungers - and no one ever complains about sun loungers
Nice video, thank you sir 🙏 👍
Go Brenda, good job 👏 👍
Omg I can’t believe she’s over 70 she looks awesome
Yes she does doesn't she!
Doing good, she is getting the job done 😊❤
Every five years that belt and the tension wheel will break and need to be replaced
Hey there. New subscriber here. I admire your willingness to get out there. I’m 73 and doing the same. I converted a Ford E150 by myself and am enjoying learning all about this lifestyle. I’m finding that I really love it. Itching to get back out there.
That was a very helpful video thank you. I have a 2011 myself but I’ve never checked my spare. I bought the van like six months ago. Thanks great video, sir!
Are you a sadist?
Hope you get some help,hopefully it won't be to expensive or difficult to replace as well as your alternator
thanks
maybe you can add where the tire removal tools are in the description. here is a video on where the tools are: th-cam.com/video/IAooaKIXe_U/w-d-xo.html
hey Frank, my first visit to your channel, subscribed because i have a similar interest in doing vanlife travel. just bought a 2012 xlt and was looking for spare tire info (thus i am here). I look forward to watching your other vids to see what excitement you have encountered. safe travels!
Thanks for watching and subscribing, more to come
Enjoy your trip, i am from USA 🇺🇸, i used to go to Canada 🇨🇦 often, from Michigan and New York, but now it's difficult, enjoyed your video, thank you sir 😊
Thanks for watching
I have a 1978 Bonanza Pinto trailer but cannot fine the VIN number or a number the state will accept to register this trailer. I did find about 8 numbers stamped on the tongue but they are barley ledgeable. How many numbers are normal for this trailer? Thanks Jim
Sorry I can't help you I don't know that answer, when I bought the pinto there is no ownership, I did put some paint remover on the tongue so I can read that number better, but it was never registered in Ontario so that didn't help, I had a heck of a time getting a new ownership but I did, good luck
I'm sorry to hear about your brother.
Thanks Ralphy
Its a huge island and they are very welcoming.... enjoy yourself
Well be careful and learn the rules real quickly first. And try not to overstay your welcome. People are very private on a small island. And they might not like strangers.?
staying at a friend's thanks for your concern I had a great time
Id say risk it.
What year is this camper?
Excellent Restoration Job ! Thank You For Sharing Your Project. Happy Camping Adventures.
What a beautiful area.
what lake?
I finished the trailer if you want to see the pics
This looks familiar
My parents bought a brand new Bonanza trailer in 1971 in New Jersey.
What RV's are those? They look cool
Hi Papa Frank! Love your camper and you seem very knowledgeable on this- I am desperate to identify my own vintage camper, wondering how we can connect so I can pick your brain and show you pictures. -Shanna in Texas
Thanks for watching my video, but I am definitely not an expert on campers, it became a hobby for me during covid, good luck
Dang… Pretty old tire. Having the tire drop in mud for example would be hard for me to drag out. 😮 I noticed mine is missing on my transit connect. I hear they make a door swing for the outside doors for a spare tire. Maybe a good option at this time. Thank you for demonstrating how it works. 😌
What size is this? Im looking at a 20 in. But not sure if its to small im 5/9 and 68 years old it will be my first ebike
it is a 20 inch,perfect for me, I am 5/8 , 69 years young,thanks for watching
That ebike looks cool, how much for this?
1000.
around a $1000
@@Papafrankscampingandoutdoors I will buy one, is it from AMZ or? Do you have a link or any discount for it?
Nice! Ebikes are hugely popular for many reasons, but mostly because you can determine how much work you want to put in peddling. Best of luck and be safe!
Thanks
@vanlifesenior I have an Okai EB50, an 81 pound tank of an ebike. It's fast, beautiful and gets me out there almost every day!
bet it was more fun for you than us!
Nice little e- bike Frank.
Sure is
Spring has sprung
April showers,Yep it is Spring
Nice!
I bought a 1987 camper, and it has the bathroom opposite the cabinet, so where you built that bench. I think mine is a size larger than yours tho. Once I have tackled the water damage in the back wall, it will be my bedroom, much like you have placed the bed there.
Not sure if you are local to the Trent canal system, but the next lock upstream is a lift-lock, which raises and lowers boats 65feet in what for a lack of a better description are water filled bath tubs.
I did see that one when I was up there
They should be working 24/7, or did they try it, and there wasn't enough traffic?
No they don't start till the morning
Looking very good..
Excellent idea … campfire popcorn 🍿 🎊
Nice!enjoy 🥳
How much did you pay for the camper
I bought it for a thousand dollars, and put around $1500 in to it
I love it ❤
Nice ride...don't forget to take your pills 💊 😊
Perfect little camper. Even i wouldnt be too overwhelmed renovating it.
I love a good campfire. Yours is a good one.
Happy birthday dear boyo, mine next week, 17th, I'll be 70.my daughter is coming for a visit, great idea there, I fancy a fire outside in the garden. Happy days. 👍🍻
Happy belated birthday, Frank. I have a Mercedes Sprinter van long wheel base, I've been thinking about converting it into a camper with a woodburner. I'm like you, I don’t like living in a big house. I almost bought 14.5 acres of land, unfortunately or fortunately which ever way you look at it fell through and I didn't end up buying the land. My aim one day is to live on the land, I know it sounds stupid, I want to live in a hobbit house. Maybe one day my dream will come true. I've just subscribed to your channel. I can't wait to see what you do with the ever popular Ford Transit Van. Cheers Frank.
enjoy from uk granny
I look forward to the Transit van vids. Over here the Ford Transit has been the most popular van for decades.
