GMC Savana | 7 Day Van Build | Part 2
Welcome back!
For part 2 of our van build series you will see us make a start on our custom built over head cabinets, kitchen cabinets as well as our bed frame.
We were kindly offered this space by a friend of a friend who let us use any tools and materials we needed to make our vision for our cabinets come to life! As our van is a low roof van, correct measurements and a custom build was essential. If you have any questions about our build please comment below!
SUBSCRIBE for more content on our van conversion as well as upcoming videos on living full time in our GMC Savana.
Enjoy!
Love Ben and Liv

GMC Savana | 7 Day Van Build | Part 1
มุมมอง 60K5 ปีที่แล้ว
Hi, We're Ben and Liv and on July 18th 2019, we packed all of our belongings into 4 bags to catch a one way flight to the other side of the world. Why, you ask? Let us take you back to a crazy conversation we had a few months back when we both decided we wanted to live out our dream of the nomadic lifestyle that is Vanlife. No rent, no utilities due every month...just the simplicity of life on ...

    I had the same white van for years... Had to sell her due to a divorce... But Bertha was the best vehicle I had... She moved like a sport car ( Not speeding of course), reliable. I used Amsoil synthetic oil from the day I bought her brand new... I had a motorcycle dealership and she was the shop van but she went home with me every day... I put on her over 270k and never missed a beat. Oil changes was religion... These vans are great. As I am looking at yours I get the itch to purchase another Bertha!!!!

    Heard cork board is easy , lighter and a good heat retaining material. Also safety gear , and taping on frames when cutting.!!

    How much was this van? I’m really wanting to get one of this style to convert . I’m having trouble finding something a little cheaper and reliable lol

    I hope that fiberglass insulation in the ribs does not hold moisture and end up full of mildew. That couldn’t up being a really bad scene especially in a humid climate. I’ve also heard it causes a respiratory health risks in vans as it put particulates in the air

    I just stumbled on a 2008 GMC Savana with a lot of miles but it’s only 3400 so I think I might have to just dive in even if it’s temporary. Wanna test drive it but I’m excited.

    Dude😰. You just cut a hole in the roof of your new van. Too scary!

  • @jamesharrison4272
    @jamesharrison4272 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Did not watch all due to the production quality of your video. Hint do NOT have crap tunes at 3 times the volume of your voice track. It just says either you don't know what the hell your are doing so just I'll turn up the radio, or you have nothing to say and I'll DJ a bit. Study a bit of cinematography (film making) if you have plans to make any money from some tube channel! After turning up and down the volume a dozen times I was done after the first 10 minutes. You have the pretty click bait girl ~ now learn how to tell a story. Good luck!
