I watched wills full build videos and then bought my own. Lived in my van full time since October now. Thanks to will and some other TH-camrs I’m glad I made this decision
The OG’s who have been here since the beginning know exactly what you’ve been through to get here Will but it was nice to see Mary in all her glory and look forward to many more adventures in her! 🤙🏻 Keep moving forward 💪🏻👍🏻
Lol I'm here from when Will was visiting India and was so excited to see in my country Nepal were he was stucked 🤣🤣 I also knew he was just regular vloggers then started stealth camping with his dad van 😒😒 The Real OG is here mate
Love seeing you back in action Will. You were the reason my husband and I started watching van life channels and your build inspired us to plan our own when we get the chance. Loved your van build, lovely to recap it, even if i couldnt concentrate on much other than what looks like a hole in your trousers the whole time 😂😅
I've said it before, but your van is one of the most functional and beautiful I've ever seen. No extraneous stuff, nothing "just for looks," and nothing that isn't done well. Great job.
Watching you start this van build was such an awesome experience. Every time you came back with a new video it was hilarious to watch you screw up but then really inspiring to see you never give up. You knocked it out of the park with the build and the new series, I can't wait to see what else you've got for us in the future.
I have been watching Van videos for years and this is by far my absolute favourite Van. The layout is so clever and compared to the most expensive vans I’ve seen, yours is the one that I would model my future van over. Thanks for the inspiration buddy.
The funniest part of your van build was you installing the blinds to the front and side windows. You were definitely a novice at the time Will, but look how experienced you've become. And you know what they say, with experience comes perfection 😉 Looking forward to more of your adventures
Finally a sign of life from you! I was getting nervous already. Thank you for thge vid. About the table, I told you when you installed it to wax the the sides of it. :-) That will help. Best greetings!
Cracking finish, can’t wait to pick up my Citreon L3 H2 in august. Going to be a few hard months ahead but we’ll worth it. These videos will always be my guide to learning Cheers Will 👌🏼👊🏽
Once again i tip my cap to Will. It takes a lot of time, effort, money, knowledge and the right materials to convert a van. Not forgetting the blood sweat, tears and swearing. 😂
Cracking tour. You got a great van for the price by the look of it. Love what you’ve done with the transverse sleeping and keeping the maximum amount of space. Have a great week, look forward to your next series. All the best, David 👍
That’s an awesome build and this is one of the best van walkthroughs I’ve seen. You explain so much so well. I’ve only caught a few of your videos before over the last year so I’m guessing I need to check out some of your older videos. I love it when TH-cam recommends me a great video.
Will, where have you been? Mary deserves a makeover for Christmas like army green or camo with fat front bumper guards and spotlights cos she deserves a present this year, she will look like a badass.
nice one will, good to see your doing well, am trying the wild car camping myself next weekend so fingers cross it goes well lol, after watching your vids since the start of the Ford galaxy i might try it myself lol. i will record my experience too lol. keep up the good work will and i see ya soon
You’ve come a long way since the Galaxy and it’s a great channel Will 👍 On a safety note that gas bottle shouldn’t be in the garage like that and it should have drop vents.
Been following for a good few years now. It seems such a shame that after all the hard work you don't really go on big adventures, and put the van through it's paces. Would love to see you go in this direction, rather than visiting the generic park ups that you have been doing.
Ford transit mk8 is very wide at the panel section where the bed goes, it is 6'5" I am 6'3" so good for me. I've followed your channel and the an build, you gave me the idea for skorva rails for the bed, genius idea and works a treat for us. I chose the ford transit mk8 for the hieght as well, I can stand straight and still got 3 or 4 " s of head space.
Wow.. just brilliant. New subscriber here.. I’m currently doing my own build and have taken so much inspiration from your content 👍🏻 Thank you 🙏🏼 JP- Living the dream
Hey will me and my partner have only just finished watching the whole series of you building your van she is amazing and we are inspired to buy our own van one day, but would need to be big enough for 4, you really did do a great job
Totally agree about the Remis Blinds. So over priced, although I bought mine at the right time for £400 which is still nuts. They’re flimsy and everytime I use them I think they’re about to break 😂but for convenience I love them
ive just watched your entire 43 videos in a little over 2 days, im not even considering van life at all, I have a massive mortgage and two kids lol. Just found it and you super interesting and entertaining. I am however, considering a mobile office as I do a lot of livestreaming football matches and getting fed lugging all my gear in and out of the car. So although not something to sleep and cook in many of the things you showed like solar, all the electrics, even the diesel heater for those winter matches will all come in super handy. Think Im going to watch more of your stuff now, well done mate, really great watch, kept me off Netflix for 3 days haha
Hi WILL, glad I found your channel, im starting my van conversion this week so a lot to learn from you… please let me know about the blinds? From where did you purchase them?
Would really love get a van and transform it too. The only thing that is holding me back is that I have zero… ZERO knowledge in electrical (and probably water) lines and installation…. Nice van by the way!
Fantastic Channel, really inspiring. I'm 55 and looking to retire maybe at 60, so a bit of time to plan a build! Did you do the work in your own premises or were you able to rent a space? I live in a terrace so would need a temporary spot to do the work. Oh and I have zero knowledge but more than willing to learn!
Hi Will with the wheel up grades did yo lift it or just straight swap the wheels and tyres and how much did it rise by do you think with the tyres just wandering how much ground clearance you get cheers keep up the great videos 👍

Thanks to you Will, i converted my van, and i am so proud of it.. thanks for showing us and i am looking forward to season two!!!
That’s amazing! Can’t wait to start uploading season 2

Hi Will, good to have you back, Mary is beautiful, you did a superb job on her. Thank you Will. Xxxxxx
Thanks so much Catherine

Couldn't be more true, all valuable experience which has helped me going forward ☺️
This is one of the very best van conversions ive seen. Love it. ❤️
Glad you like it!
Use a candle against each side of your pull out table....subjects candle and that will ease it up...no smell etc
It deffo needs to be re-waxed that's for sure
I have officially was all the episodes of building ur van. Two days no three bcuz I fell asleep and had to rewind. Thank you it was all amazing.
Just watched the entire playlist. Cannot wait to build my own. Learnt a lot from this, so thanks!
Finally a sign of life from you! I was getting nervous already. Thank you for thge vid. About the table, I told you when you installed it to wax the the sides of it. :-) That will help. Best greetings!
Haha I’ll be back next week for good!
I loved watching your van build. Will . Look forward to seeing every video . . And you are just such a nice bloke 👏 👍
Thanks very much mate, Appreciate it!
Cracking finish, can’t wait to pick up my Citreon L3 H2 in august.
Going to be a few hard months ahead but we’ll worth it. These videos will always be my guide to learning
Cheers Will 👌🏼👊🏽
A hard few months but will be well worth it in the end 😊
People like you that made me do my van build will 👌🏼
That’s amazing to hear 😊
Once again i tip my cap to Will. It takes a lot of time, effort, money, knowledge and the right materials to convert a van. Not forgetting the blood sweat, tears and swearing. 😂
Haha deffo agree with the last few points 😂
Hi will can you do a video on camping in the Isle of Wight it’s got some nice beaches and scenery good for a video
Great idea
Cracking tour. You got a great van for the price by the look of it. Love what you’ve done with the transverse sleeping and keeping the maximum amount of space.
Have a great week, look forward to your next series.
All the best, David 👍
Thanks David! Next one out next week
That’s an awesome build and this is one of the best van walkthroughs I’ve seen. You explain so much so well. I’ve only caught a few of your videos before over the last year so I’m guessing I need to check out some of your older videos.
I love it when TH-cam recommends me a great video.
Awesome, thanks very much Paul! Glad you liked it
@@WillsWhereabouts no worries at all will! Looking forward to seeing what happens next and if you add anything extra.
From Toronto ❤ I loved it very nice will.
Thank you! 😊
Will, where have you been? Mary deserves a makeover for Christmas like army green or camo with fat front bumper guards and spotlights cos she deserves a present this year, she will look like a badass.
I’ve been concentrating on filming and editing the season 2 videos which will be coming soon 😅
@@WillsWhereabouts Can't wait.
Im from los angeles and i’ve been watching all your videos from your ford galaxy to your new van.👍👍👍happy for you Will…keep it up
I’ve been wanting to have my own van one day..you inspire people Will keep it up and God bless…
What a great revisit with Mary. She’s lookin’ good, mate. Also gun to see Neil’s arm there in one bit. 😜
Hah without Neil the van build wasn't possible!
nice one will, good to see your doing well, am trying the wild car camping myself next weekend so fingers cross it goes well lol, after watching your vids since the start of the Ford galaxy i might try it myself lol. i will record my experience too lol. keep up the good work will and i see ya soon
That's awesome mate I'm sure you'll have a great time
Always good to watch your videos Will. 😊👍
Thanks 👍
You’ve come a long way since the Galaxy and it’s a great channel Will 👍
On a safety note that gas bottle shouldn’t be in the garage like that and it should have drop vents.
I really have hah! And yep you’re right I’m going to sort it out properly once and for all
You might have had no experience but in the end it's a pretty good van setup. Plus I still love the anti-gravity jars.
Hah thanks very much
Proud to say that I was there from the beginning witnessesing how Mary was transformed. 😊
Haha thanks mate
Been following for a good few years now. It seems such a shame that after all the hard work you don't really go on big adventures, and put the van through it's paces. Would love to see you go in this direction, rather than visiting the generic park ups that you have been doing.
I’ve been on quite a few adventures in the van and have made videos about them!
Ford transit mk8 is very wide at the panel section where the bed goes, it is 6'5" I am 6'3" so good for me.

That’s awesome mate I’ll have to look at the Ford Transit next
Nice use of space. Good work. 😊
Thanks Chris
Come a long way with that rig good job
Hah I really have
Nice one will,think fitting the window blinds ,was the most entertaining! Felt you frustration 😅Best wishes from Wales 🏴
Haha it was a pain in the arse
Wow.. just brilliant. New subscriber here.. I’m currently doing my own build and have taken so much inspiration from your content 👍🏻

Hey will me and my partner have only just finished watching the whole series of you building your van she is amazing and we are inspired to buy our own van one day, but would need to be big enough for 4, you really did do a great job
Great tour! I saw your whole build series & enjoyed every one! Hope you're having a great summer 😊
Thank you! You too!
Hi will. Thank you for entertaining us with all these videos, especially when all the carnage starts lol. Keep up with the awesome content 👏 👌
Thanks Matthew, more carnage to come I’m sure
Totally agree about the Remis Blinds. So over priced, although I bought mine at the right time for £400 which is still nuts. They’re flimsy and everytime I use them I think they’re about to break 😂but for convenience I love them
Haha they really are aren’t they but I do love them for the convenience
Great! Your my hero!
😂😂 not sure I can be anyone’s hero but thanks
Hey Will how big is that diesel heater. Trying to figure out how to extend my camping season in my minivan
It’s not massive, I’ve done some videos on it so you’ll be able to get a better idea in those videos
Nice tour Will.
Thanks Matt, hope you're well mate!
@@WillsWhereabouts Yes thanks thing are going good.
Rub the edges of the sliding table with wax from a candle, it helps.
Great tour Will. I've watched all your van build videos and you have inspired me to want to build my own sometime! (if I can persuade my missus! :)
Haha best of luck with that! Fingers crossed you’ve got good persuasion skills

The van looks amazing mate, been watching since the Galaxy camps and you've come a long way. Keep it up 👍

Cheers mate

Would really love get a van and transform it too. The only thing that is holding me back is that I have zero… ZERO knowledge in electrical (and probably water) lines and installation….
Nice van by the way!
I can’t wait for van build series 2 with the bigger version on the van 👀
I think it might be coming soon 👀
@@WillsWhereabouts talk about being a tease 😂
Fantastic Channel, really inspiring. I'm 55 and looking to retire maybe at 60, so a bit of time to plan a build! Did you do the work in your own premises or were you able to rent a space? I live in a terrace so would need a temporary spot to do the work. Oh and I have zero knowledge but more than willing to learn!
Hi will the van looks great can you say the location where you filmed the video looks like a good place to visit

Hi Will what is the drive like of the Ducato any issues to be aware of we were thinking of getting a lwb ducato so many mixed reviews
I’ve never had any driving issues at all! Very light steering and decent engine, no complaints from me

Like hubs/oven combo. Magic Chef?
Hi Will with the wheel up grades did yo lift it or just straight swap the wheels and tyres and how much did it rise by do you think with the tyres just wandering how much ground clearance you get cheers keep up the great videos 👍

Hi Will. You do realise that 2 x 175w solar panels give you 350w of solar, right? …..🤣🤣🤣
😂😂 what did I say
@@WillsWhereabouts You said 2 x 175w solar panels making 300w total….🤣🤣🤣 Not trying to be pedantic, but found it funny…….
Haha all good, my maths has never been greatv
@@WillsWhereabouts Great videos though Will. Keep it up…
