Van conversion to campervan FINAL COUNT DOWN!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ส.ค. 2019
- Our bus conversion into a campervan / tiny home is almost complete.
In 5.5 weeks we have transformed this incredible van into our very first home together to live in and travel the world. We've learnt brand new skills and picked up tools we never even knew existed - but it's all been SO worth the stress and money because Custard is an absolutely BABE and we cannot wait to show you the end results of all of our (and our friends and family's) hard work.
Next video up - THE GRAND REVEAL 😊😊

Bloody lovin this series so far. Custard forever!!
Haha CUSTARD FOREVERRRR!!! Thanks mate!
Awww - when you were looking so tired half way through that video but still so proud, I wanted to reach in and give you both a cwtch! #KingingIt #RuleYouOwnWorld #AwesomeCustard
So excited for your both! Custard is a beauty. I will be anxiously awaiting the reveal and finding out where your first destination will be with her. Adventure awaits!! ❤️🚌🌎💑
Whoop! Cheers bud 😄 so happy we made it to this point. Completely exhausted but so happy. Not long now 😁
Oh...I cannot wait for this adventure to begin!!! I ditched other van lifers vlogs because you two are brilliant and so entertaining! Your content is spot on! I can’t wait for you two to meet up with Eamon and Bec again! Good Luck Guys!
It is so beautiful! The shower is everything. Porta potty indoors? You are living large. No poops on the house though. Your hard work has paid off.
We totally understand how you feel, sometimes it seems like the work will never end ... but you got this! when the renovation is all over and you are on the road, then you just look back and smile
I can't wait to see the finished Custard! You have worked so hard and truly deserve this. Hoping that you're having fun in your mobile dream machine xox
Thanks Danielle 😄😄
We're over the moon with her - she's such a beauty - full bus tour video coming soon - promise!
She looks amazing inside guys, can’t wait for the full tour. No number twos remember!
Haha noted 💩 full tour coming soon!!
Hi 👋 I seen you guys with Eamon and Bec and I been watching your videos since I like you guys so I subscribed to your charnel good luck 🍀👍 guys
Hey Martha! Thanks a bunch miss! Welcome to the mad house 😂 good to have you ♥️
You guys are awesome, well done for keeping it going even through the hard times. You guys really are inspiring and have motivated me to clean and put my stuff away 😂 in all seriousness though, enjoy your time away in custard and keep the vlogs coming! X
Congrats guys, hope you have a wicked time 😁
Smiles on me face all 12.5 minutes! I am so excited for you guys, looks amaaaaazin!👏👏👏👏
You're too lush Ellen!! Thanks for watching 😄😄 xx
@@kingingit more like jea-lush HAHA!
Ellen Witvoet 😂😂😂 yep!
The process of watching Custard come to life or rather, back to life, has been exciting, a little nerve wracking (I can't imagine what it's been like for you two 😳) and inspirational.
It was also super cool to see some of my other favourite vanlifers, Eamon and Bec, drop in with Trinity...
I cannot wait to see the full tour of her decked out in all her finery and then to follow your adventures in the road.... SO EXCITED FOR YOU (although I guess as I'm writing this you've already been on the road for a tiny bit... Since it's now Sunday 11 August)??
Safe travels and I can't wait to see what you get up to... Really looking forward to your travel vlogs!! Loads of love from Brisbane, Australia 🇦🇺💝
supper funny video as always love watching your videos and how you overcome everything that gets thrown at you both! we've wanted to vlog for ages and been watching you for a while and its channels like yours which inspired us to start vlogging ourselves the other week :) thank you looking forward for the road trip to begin in custard :)
Just WOW
Superb vlog we really loved it, Love you guys and full support from India.
YAAYY!! We love our Indian followers - thanks for sticking around and watching our vids 😄 appreciate it!
A new subscriber here. I watched your full van tour video and then your how to video, loved them both! You are such a pleasure to watch, and I am looking forward to seeing more of your adventures. Just a suggestion, when thanking your legends, you didn’t identify any of them. Giving the names of the professionals would let others maybe contact them for jobs. Naming your family and friends and saying what they did to help is like giving them their 15 minutes of fame, right? I’m just saying, Custard turned out so beautifully, I would want to shout out to the world who helped create this thing of beauty!! Cheers from across the pond in your former colony!
Was wondering where the Porta Potty was going! Omg...... Custard is beautiful! Well done to all those beautiful people who helped you! And Congrats to you both.... all those long hours of hard yakka are about to pay off. 🥰🥰
Thanks Roslyn! 😁 She's not bad aye! It has been the hardest Grafting of our lives! But totally worth it 🥰 we love her!
Looking fantastic guys.... Very tidy.. Lol
So pretty! Great job guys! (I thought Aimee's nails were looking pretty good thru the series, LOL)
First again!!! Woohoo Can't wait for Custardy advebntures to start
Haha yes!! We can't either, it's gonna be magic! 😄
Dig the intro. You got yourselves a sub too😝
Haha thanks mate 😊 cheers for watching!
F**kin gorgeous! Aimee you were glowing, the bus ain't bad either. So looking forward to your trip. When's the next MOT?
Unreal 👍
Your bus really turned out amazing! All the best for your trip! Also, think about buying some stick-in velcro, the idea of all those pillows and couch covers just flying around is OCD-triggering!
Do a 60 day before after shots and frame in in Custard :D
Deffo get some custom, window insulation, esepcially round the bed, with so many windows you'll suffer serious heat loss otherwise, also good for summer to keep cool aswell.
Wawza looking stunning both. Fair play blood, sweat and tears. Really impressed you have done so much of it yourselves - you should both be mega proud!
Loved watching your journey doing this 😍
My temp conversion should start tomorrow or early next week 🤞🏻 get me beast of a fridge in.
Happy Custard Camping- will take getting used to and you will want to make changes and add things but that’s the beauty 🚎🚎🚎🚎 hippies at hearts 💕 Anna x x
Hey Anna! Ah thanks mate ♥️it has been one heck of a journey but so pleased with it. Send us some snaps of your progress! Would love to see what you do with yours 😄 we are already planning the upgrades and changed as we go haha - grand reveal coming soon!
Kinging- It will do, not on social media apart from TH-cam but I’ll email you some snaps of my baby.
Thing is with campers and mobile homes you don’t know what you personally need lay out and gadget wise until you’ve used it. Is a never ending project of love.
Enjoy every moment and I hope I get to catch you both on the road one day 😍🚎🚎🚎 joio!
Anna Griffiths I have nipped over to your channel and subscribed... Ready to watch your van / bus conversion uploads.... Please do progress vlogs..P..L..EEEAA..SE!!🙏
Angela Bay-Jespersen thaks Angela, I don’t actually Vlog ( I doubt anyone would understand my string welsh accent 😂) my conversions are done when I’m in work. Sorry. I did start filming the re spray and change of colour but the footage was lost and progress was too quick. I may be able to sow some old photos and make something of it but not sure. Main conversion is in November, I can’t wait! Thanks for subscribing, Anna x x 🚎🏄♀️🧘🏼♀️
Make sure you weight it. You have done a great job.
Good on you guys, cracking effort getting it done in such a rush... Happy travels :)) btw MOT retest? Driver's door didn't look like it was closing properly on way to test centre first time
Retest was a success we forgot to mention 😆 the door works fine I think I didn't close it properly in all the excitement!
Looks amazing guys, can't believe this video has 3 dislikes, can't believe some people, what's to not like petty feckers
Well done guys,but...just a question:For privacy,why don't u dismount some windows?(its also important in Summer,lots of heat comevin, and in Winter it could be, that u need to heat more
Hey bud! We really like the open windows. Also theres no time 😂 at least for this trip. We will have to see how we go and maybe do it later down the line 👌
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just watched this episode and you've uploaded the grand reveal...... ahhh so excited but I need to go out. So big plan is to wait and tonight's view premier is 'Custard the bus in all its glory'.... big question is Custard a girl or boy lol..... my dad always referred to his vehicles as girls? Random question I know 😜🤟🚌
do you still use same mattress ? In many of your videos people mention how comfy the bed in custard is :)
maLaysia here🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾💪💪💪💪💪
We felt so good when we put our mattress in... it was like wow! Now it’s home 😂
CUSTARD looks so HOT!!!!! What an amazing job you did with the help from your increadable friends. Can't wait to see her all tarted up! Lol Good vibes coming your way from BC Canada! PS That OTTY mattress looks DELICIOUS
The bus looks great. Quick question, how tall are the both of you? I want to do something similar but the length of the bed is a big thing for me.
Thanks Andrew! Craig is 6ft and he fits on perfect fully stretched out! 😁
So what did she fail the MOT on?
You guys, from the first day Custard arrived to how beautiful she looks now! I mean WOW! She looks like she dressed up for prom!
Now can you get custard to Mongolia?????
So when are you guys having babies? A boy and a girl! 👍🏻❤😁
😲😲😀😀👍
I love your videos and you guys! Your amazing :). Buttttt I would have loved to have watched a series with you guys building the van not other people :(
Maybe it’s the way it’s been vlogged but it kinda just looks like you have had people come in and do it for you. You guys are brill and are very capable of doing all that yourself :) love you guys though xx
Trust me Hayley we have literally been painting, screwing,hammering, wiring and all sorts. Everyone who had helped has mainly been for the knowledge and the tools but we have been working out asses off. If it wasn't such a tight schedule we would have had a go ourselves to do it all but time didn't permit!
I think you two forgot about your deal about going #2. 🧐🥴
