My gosh you did such a brilliant job keep it up! I used to own a delica but all I could do was make it filthy not as beautiful as yours. Although they do look good dirty! xx
They look good dirty on the outside! Hauhau Living in a filthy van wouldn't be our style... having said that... every now and then it looks a lot worse than you see on this video! Lol! Cheers!
Great video! Just started watching your series and now I'm binge watching all of them. I love your van conversion. My vision is for my wife and I to be semi retired and travel the globe in the same way you to are. Thank you for so many great tips!
New interior looks great!
Thanks! We love it too!!
Nicely done. We're thinking of re-doing the back of our truck after this next trip. The functionality is not what we had imagined so back to the drawing board. Watching this video gave me some great ideas for the remodel 👍
It's awesome how much you can learn from simply using your setup, right? This is actually Vanda 3.0 hehehe it's the third time we build a camper interior for her. Every single time it gets better heheh Have a great day!
Que vídeo espetacular !!!! Um dia ainda consigo ter uma visão de edição pra fazer algo assim tão bom !!! Pq sei o quanto de tempo vocês fizeram tudo isso é só foram editar agora !!! E que espetáculo de vídeo !!! Assisti indo e voltando pra ver cada detalhe 2 a 3 vezes !!! Não vejo a hora de ser hóspede nesta nova casa !!! Rsrs ... fale pra Micheila que o piso tem jeito ainda ! Lixa fina para retirar os pelinhos e camadas finas de verniz ... com rolo pequeno de lã bem baixo ! Se não tiver por aí posso mandar para vocês !!! Vai ficar como ela quer entre demãos tem que dar um leve quebrada de lixa !!! Que vai ficar exatamente como ela queria um vidro e liso !!!
Qual a tradução da frase do armário !!!!?
Valeu pelo carinho de sempre, mestre! O piso acabou ficando legal. Com o Taco lá direto ele acaba alisando o piso com o próprio corpo auhuahuaha A tradução seria "Nem todos que vagam estão perdidos" ou algo assim. Abração!
Good work guys, alot of work and looks great
Looks like a double lounger meaning you can sit facing the front or lounge looking out the back. Really Cool!
Taco looks so well now
So much more room for activities!
Looks good guys. Head room in bed is why our DIY camper is as tall as it is... well that and the 6 surfboards strapped above our heads ;)
We wish we had that much room! Heheheh Your camper is awesome!
Gotta have room for all the toys :)
I do like the Delicas though. We've met a few people traveling in them and they always look so cool. Nice and small for driving around in those colonial towns and overgrown trails.
Muitooo top! Parabéns pelo projeto. Ficou maravilhoso. Nós amamos😍😘 Abraço Thais e Diego
São realmente Guerreiros da ação, mão na obra sem medo !
Obrigado, amigos! Vida na estrada é assim! A gente se vira nos 30 hehehe
Looks great, always more work than expected. You use the KISs principal ,always works best. Keep enjoying your lives! 🤗
One has always to account for all the unforseen problems heheh but we are happy with the result in the end. It was really worth it! Thanks for watching!
Coisa boa é a renovação! e vinda do trabalho e esforço é espetacular o resultado. Parabéns e boa jornada!
Frase perfeita !!!!! Perfeita !!! Perfeita !!!
looks great guys!
Glad you liked, mate! We are very happy with it!
Thanks mate! We love it too! Have a great one!
Great job well done.
Thanks, MaD destinations ! All the best from us!
Amei. Lindo demais, vocês estão arrebentando. Queria estar aí curtindo tudo isso. Já assisti 2 vezes hoje.
Logo mais vai conhecer nosso amigão! Ele vai brincar com a Jade quando chegarmos ;)
Good job
Whenever I see your vids pop up, I automatically thumbs up it, wish I could double thumbs but very cool guys with a cool van, wish my delica was as cool. Taco is there coolest by far, your so lucky to have him
Thanks guys! That's very nice of you! We are just a couple having fun out there... And as you can see it's not that hard to make a good looking and functional interior for a Delica hehehehe all the best!
Ficou muito tri, bem funcional, parabéns!!
Obrigado, Rafawel 1975 ! Grande abraço nosso!
Estava ansioso por esse vídeo! Resultado muito bom, vocês estão de parabéns. Grande abraço!
Obrigado, Edi! Que bom que curtiu! Nós estamos adorando a "casa nova"!
Super Cool!
looks good!
Parabéns pela realização e pelo cachorrinho.
Valeu, Ivam! Ficamos felizes com o resultado!
Achei muito legal pela iniciativa que tiveram, e desejo boa sorte em tudo e que Deus proteja vcs nas viagens e em tudo.
Abraço!
Obrigado pelo carinho, Victor! Grande abraço de nós 3!
Ficou top, parabéns 👏👏👏
Ficou top...show de bola...!!!
Muito legal, show!!!!
Obrigado, Travel Livre ! Grande de nós 3!
Ficou ótimo!
Vcs ja pensaram em colocar o banco do carona para girar sobre a sua
base, em 360°!?
Oi amigos, o nosso banco faz isso! Grande abraço de nós 3.
Overland Way 👍
Muito legal gente! Frase perfeita, renovação muito astral!!! Parabéns!!! Perguntinhas ;-) : i) vocês tem tanque extra de combustível? Quantos litros o de água? E quantos litros a geladeira? Valeu galera! Sigam firme aí! Parabéns!
Oi Gustaco, que bom que curtiu! Logo logo vai sair um tour da Vanda mostrando com mais detalhes, mas já respondendo as perguntas: temos um tanque extra de 65 litros e um galão de 20. Carregamos 150 litros de diesel no total. O tanque de água tem 70 litros e a geladeira é de 40! Abraços!
Overland Way nossa! 150 é fantástico!!! Estou pensando em alternativas para meu carro... a geladeira da conta ou acham pequena? Será mais um tour? Já vi um antigo de vcs. Capricha na parte da máquina. Vc fez alguns ajustes muito interessantes! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Abs.
Ficou muito bom, lindo!!!
Obrigado, Laura Rocha Tavares ! Grande abraço nosso!
Vcs não usam mais a roof top tent? Muito trabalho pra armar, desarmar? Segurança? Abração, sigo vcs em todos os episódios, super legal, parabéns!!! Pedro
Usamos sim, mas colocar e tirar o Taco lá de cima não rola. Então quando dormimos em cima ele ganha o quarto de baixo só pra ele. Dormimos na barraca quando estamos em um lugar bonito ou quente e no carro quando só queremos passar a noite num estacionamento ou na rua. Abraços!
bem pensado. Vcs estiveram perto de aonde moro, norte do mexico em san miguel de allende - pena q já passaram ao sul! --- boas viagens! uma info adicional; tenho amigos Mexicanos que já estiveram em Belize, e à parte do mar que é espetacular, nada mais chamou a atenção deles - somente muita pobreza, crime, inseguro. Cheguem bem as informações, além do problema com a 'Vanda'!!
Gin and tonic = makes me tell the truth......... I love you 2, and wish you a wonderful life. Sorry you 3!
Wanna share that gin and tonic with us? Lol! Thanks for your support, Kaylem! Have a great one!
Great video guys I’m slowly ploughing my way through all of your vlogs I’m planning my own trip pan-America and was wondering what your monthly travelling budget is
Hi Lee! That's great you are planning to do the PanAmerican... it's heaps of fun and there is so much learning/seeing to do! Monthly bugdet will vary greatly between travelers as drinking or accommodation can affect the overall price of living on the road greatly. We travel at 50 USD/day for two people and a dog, but we do love going to restaurants, have pet expenses and spend more money than we need really. You could do with 30 USD/day. Choosing the right car can help also as trips to the mechanic can cost a fortune! Cheers!
I think I may have bummed out with the right car as I will be doing it in my old Land Rover discovery 1 300 Tdi (reliability is in the eye of the beholder) but that aside it’s a reliable truck, I am also planning to take my wife. I think eating out is that second favourite thing to do. I was looking at spending £1000 per month $1350 US so this just breaks short of the US$50 however we plan to be sleeping on the vehicle all the time most likely the same roof tent you have. Thanks for the reply and keep on having fun.
Awesome conversion guys! I'm looking to d something similar and I was wondering how you made the sliding metal frame for the bed?
Great work. Huge battery you got there. What's the capacity/specs?
It's a 120 Ah deep cycle battery!
Lush, but i would darken the arts color scheme perhaps grey writing with black background, would make it feel like alot more room imo...
Very nice job. But if you take the back seat out and replace it by a self made one, don't you think that you are going to get problems with guests driving with you? Because you don't have seatbelts anymore.
Safe travels!
Teun Swerts Totally true... The reason we had that seat in the first place was to be able to easily take guests but at the end of the day we need to look after ourselves and we need more comfort. If we find out we need seatbelts I can build a crossmember to hold the belts but so far we are happy just to have a more comfortable place to sleep hehhe
Well done guys , love your vids. What mattress do you use? I cant imagine being able to use a memory foam mattress??
Nicely done! Looks fantastic.
How much water are you guys carrying?
Hi Sebastian, we carry 70 litres of drinking water with us! Cheers!
Maybe Taco needs another street puppy so he can play..!!
Awe-and-some
Thanks, Kaylem ! All the best from us!
Ahoj! I really like the new inside of the Vanda. It'll surely be more comfortable and practical than before. I'm sorry to hear about Taco, but I'm pretty sure he'll eventually get over it. I hope you'll find a way around Costa Rica's right-hand drive problem. Yeah, being RHD in a left-hand drive world isn't always easy. Keep doing what you're doing, guys, you're amazing. (and Taco as well). Hodně štěstí na dalších cestách! :-)
Thanks, Ён Ожана ! All the best from us!
When you come to Brazil?
Temos que estar no RJ em Abril de 2019! Então provavelmente Março estamos entrando no RS! Abraços!
it looks fantastic, what do you do for tiolet or for poo emergencies?
Top vc e o magaiverrs
AaHAHuhaHUA Valeu, pessoal! Bom que curtiram! Magaiver tinha muito a ensinar!
se no inicio do titulo colocarem "vanlife"penso que vao ter muitas mais visualizacoes!!!!
Can you still swivel the passenger chair with the slide out fridge design?
Show like 1000%
Obrigado, Kety Costa ! Grande abraço nosso!

Such a good channel, I love your videos and have been binging them. You two have made me want a Delica so bad. My girlfriend and I go on roadtrips/camping around Australia in a Subaru Forester. It's an old early 2000s model which is long enough to convert the back into a bed and we made curtains for the windows, and with a roof rack to store things it can feel pretty homely. I always wanted a van but got a Forester because it's a light off roader and didn't think 4WD vans even existed. Did you guys get yours imported from Japan or buy it in Australia?
Here's a photo of our little Forester on a trip from last year instagram.com/p/BXH8xkEgCUF/?taken-by=hueycookafew
G'day, mate! We love the Foresters... always thought of having one but ended up with a Delica and can't complain. We traveled for a bit in California with our mate @fozroamer. It's worth checking out his instagram for some inspiration. His FOZ is absolutely SICK!
We bought our van from an Australia owner after she had had it in the country for 7 years. I wouldn't recommend importing it as prices are way higher and there is no guarantee the car will be any better. You don't get to see it before you buy and some importers or Japanese sellers are know to be dishonest. That's why we decided to buy something we could see, test and knew some of its story.
In the end it took me - Alex - 6 months to find the car I wanted as many Delicas in Australia are, unfortunately, in bad shape. But there is now a great asset for Australians which is called the Delica Garage. Those guys know everything about the car and are super (SUPER!) honest... it's worth having a chat with them and consider paying a bit more for a car that's been green flagged by them.
We wish you guys all the best! Thanks for following the channel!
Cheers
Taco is a great communicater
If he could talk he would present a TV show lol
