The guy at the shop says"You can get pretty efficient after 50 times" as he grinds hot metal into the paint job on the roof! Looks like a great van for travelling the USA.
My dad passed away a year ago, and a van build would have been right up his alley. He was a life time builder, crafter, and tinkerer with an astounding imagination. I just started my van conversion, and I'll be doing it alone.
Pretty cool that these guys have standardized a kit to make a quick install happen. I'm sure it's not for everyone but for those who are less handy, or in a time crunch, it looks like a good thing. On a side note, I wouldn't let that guy who installed the roof vent slop sealant on my van. You can seal things without being sloppy.
@@freya1-1 It would definitely be a pain once it was cured. I built boats for 30 years and boats are obviously at greater risk where leaks are concerned. We seal things above and below the waterline without blobs of caulk over everything. Our caulk seems are smooth and fairly inconspicuous. I have not rewatched this video but if I recall correctly, the guy was just dumping the sealant over the top of the screws/seams as a "preventive measure". Totally unnecessary. If the surfaces are sealed, they are sealed.
I loved watching Alexander’s build but this makes a lot of sense. Not everyone has months to do the build or two really handy guys to donate tons of time to your van.
Grew up on a Marino farm in Australia. AVG sheep will produce 5-8kg and are shorn (not "sheared") every 12 months. I live in Switzerland, drive a Fiat Ducato. I did my entire build with Bosch Rexroth (like 8020) I love my build and have seen 2 things in your build that get me excited. •Those windows covers look great! •Those rack mounts, my next plan is a Bosch Rexroth roof rack with 270° awning. Can't wait to see the next installment. I also used to live in Malaga Spain and loved that series. Thanks so much for the great content.
Wow, that's awesome. It's actually really good to see other options than just build it yourself for months. I'm pretty capable and have all the tools, but sometimes you just want it done! Can't wait to see it 100%.🤘
Cool build Brian. Keep in mind anything that is on the exterior of the van will take abuse from weather and debris at some point. So, take a close look at where you mounted the air compressor and make sure it's safe from rocks and mud hitting the tank. You may want to see if Dad can help you fashion a small aluminum skid plate for under it. Looking forward to seeing where the van takes you. Cheers!
Nice build!, i totally get why you went with it, no stress, no hasle, no time!!. I would think their Hide Away table would be the perfect add on for your needs!.
Was really stoked to see one of these promaster builds in person yesterday. Some friends freon Colorado Springs are in town for Christmas. I love how minimalist this build is and allows for plenty of expansion room. Now you need some heat!!!
Wow. Fantastic build. Just incredible. What a great team and terrific result. Love the quality of the materials and the clean install. I guess the second best part, other than how fast the install is is the fact that you can uninstall easily should you need an entire van or even upgrade or redesign. Pros: Simplicity; Durability; Cleanliness; Form and Function. Cons: Cost I would expect, limited choice of platforms of course and Design ideas. (Colours etc) Regardless, this is such a great idea. Even here in Australia I could order all the parts and install them myself. Great video. Thanks for producing. And congrats to Wayfarer for filling such a niche market. 👏😃
Great fan install! Just the right amount of self levelling sealant, with the amount the dark grey roof will move around in the heat, more it's better. He knows his vents!
The best part was the insulation and that window magnetic cover. The whole point of building a van is to make it your own personal space and have the feeling of accomplishment at the end of the build. Plus it looks like that kit isn’t finished as they cut a lot of corners starting with the cabinet drawers.. ect
The drawer “fronts” are … ? What the actual flip to say about them ? I’m surprised they even let the “finished” job be filmed . If they put half the work dude puts into that mustache toward a more coherent build … they might have something one day .
Great van build up and video. Your dad is awesome for working on this with you. So glad to hear that it is almost ready for travels and adventures. Hope to see you some day on trails. 5:50 - warranty voided. 🤣
@@bkxc we started a mountain bike club here in Fort Dodge Iowa. Got a couple AWESOME trail systems!! Gonna be adding a lot more this summer!! As of now, our south trail is a little over 4 miles!! Once we get more done I'd love to have you come to Iowa and do some riding!!!!
Wow That's awesome. I will be getting my van in a few months and can't wait to start my new adventure. Thank you for your video, It really helped me a lot. 😁
He does seem to have spent a lot of money on other things that many vanners do without while omitting something like a water pump which seems more basic to a lot of people, HOWEVER everybody's priorities are different so I'm not going to judge. There are certainly some valid arguments against electric pumps (greater expense, noise, added complexity). For me personally, if I was going to forego an electric pump, I'd at least go with a foot powered pump rather than the hand pump (not much greater complexity or cost while leaving both hands free while using the faucet).
One cool thing in a friend's van that I haven't seen in many, is a ground anchor bolted to the floor and heavy duty motorbike security chains from the anchor and through the front triangle of any bikes stored. It means I can rest easy if we leave the van with the bikes inside before/after riding.
Great minimalist build using the electrical struts for bed supports is a good idea cheap and strong... the wool insulation looks interesting but I would need a vapor barrier to prevent condensation soaking the insulation in cold weather. Thanks for the post.
"One of my mottos is no dings, no dents, no scratches.".............While he stands on an aluminum ladder that is leaning right on the side of the van.
WOW, yes definitely worth it considering the aggravation and time factor of trying to do it yourself, just plug and play, that rear view mirror camera is amazing, technology does have its positives! Now you have the basics
Dont be mislead so easily. My son is a millennial. He put himself through college. He supported himself by working at everything from Taco Bell to doggie day care. He bought his first home at 29 and is now a Police Officer about to get married. The fact is, if he were building that van, Id be right there doing as much as I could to help him. There is a difference between someone who deserves the extra effort someone who doesn't. You don't know this guy's story. And if you think everyone from our generation was all work and no play, you weren't paying attention.
I thought this was actually a funny joke compared to all the other "Your dad did everything" mean comments. All I see in the mean comments is people who don't have a good relationship with their parents.
@@bkxc 😌At least, to some degree, you recognized that it is a joke, at least it was such🙄 I consider this a progress...you are also right, to some degree, again, about the fact that some people don't have a good relationship with their parents, that is true for some. But for others, that don't have one....and all they have left to do, is to see humorous situations that other, lucky ones, have. So, if my funny comment offended your fragile self, sir... we'll, so be it. 1: Treasure what you have, this fragile moments of shared happiness, the tend to end with a blink of an eye, taken away, irreversibly vanishing in the ocean of time. Gone! And you're stuck with the memories of what no longer is. 2: Words, no matter how hateful or disrespectful, that seem to appear such to keen eye of our inner judgment, that have no relation whatsoever to our current state of things, cannot actually offend us, unless they find a way to reflect in what we are, even to the slightest degree. Other than that: Fun project. Treasure your relations guy! Looks like I personally set you both up for this. To come to a new level of appreciation, of you having each other. 🖕🤨
People would be amazed on how easy those Van's are to drive. I drive the Rams, and Mercedes sprinters all over Atlanta all day, and never have a problem.
Loved this video for a lot of reasons, but I really dig that it's a Promaster video. So many Sprinter and Transit videos out there. I plan to go with a Promaster myself, so this was refreshing. That air compressor add-on is interesting. Hadn't seen that before. Very cool.
It's going to be funny when something goes wrong on a trail in the mountains with no cell phone service and he has an air compressor but has no clue how it's built so he can't fix anything. Except for the backup camera. He knows how that's wired...maybe
He's not done with the finish work. wayfarervans.com/select-a-van/ That's most of what that company did. I'm assuming his daddy will install the final systems later on
I've watched so many van build videos and respected the time honored tradition of it taking forever but this brought hope to my cold heart in the event I could do a van build this is the only way I'd do it lol. Good video!
I really want to buy a van use wayfarer... talked to Ian, seems like a solid dude! I just wanted a little more than their earlier builds, but it seems like they’re adding and improving! Might need to revisit this idea!
Great build. I am just starting this journey. I live in Colorado Springs and just about fell over when saw the company, Wayfarer, is in my home town. Then I saw one of the employees, Chris... I coached him in High School! (He did not have the epic moustache back then lol)
Love your videos man, envious of your lifestyle of course... Thank you for bringing these great MTB destinations right to my living room while snow outside. Aside my AZ rant I'm with you all 50! states brotha!
Wow...4hr Build! Cool. Quick question could you give us the name of the spacer piece for the top of the van attached into the grooves before Maxx Air fan.
It may have taken 4 hours to install, but all the components were designed and fabricated in advance. It's like buying a furniture for your house: the time it takes for delivery and placement isn't the only cost... plus, the advantage of not having the van tied up for months is enormous. If the owner is making payments on a van that can't be used/driven for 3 or 4 months, all those payments are wasted expenditures.
@@pahrn I'm not disputing that. I'm impressed that there's a market for it with such a high markup and fast install. Prefab wood and rope is very cheap to manufacture. If all parties are happy then it's a fantastic business model.
Is it really a build if you didn’t build it at all? Do none of the work and reap all the benefits 😂. It’s like those people that pay for ripped jeans to look trendy and street
Who cares how he does it? If he's just building to be mobile and adventure and doesn't care about saving money...and it's his money he's spending...then hey no harm, no foul.
Your dad is a trooper for doing all this AND filming it for you!
Haha most definitely!!
Daddy does all the work.
Dad's trying to get him out basement 😂
@@bkxc why is everything always funny to you?
You've got the best dad in the whole world! I'd rather hear it all from the man, who did the work!
The guy at the shop says"You can get pretty efficient after 50 times" as he grinds hot metal into the paint job on the roof! Looks like a great van for travelling the USA.
So the lesson is: if you want to cool van, you’ve got to have a cool dad.
Easy as that!
My dad passed away a year ago, and a van build would have been right up his alley. He was a life time builder, crafter, and tinkerer with an astounding imagination. I just started my van conversion, and I'll be doing it alone.
@@goy1849 I'm sure your dad is with you in spirit while you build yours ... stay safe and well
@@bkxc an that my friend.....is exactly why you are such a loser,sad man.
Love how he says oh this was so easy ...oh and that was so easy to install ...oh yeah my dad installed it
Props to Wayfarer for keeping those $400 lights in your van.
Very happy about that!
In Paul the Punters van build they removed them because they said they use a lot of power.
I really enjoyed watching all the details of Alex's drawn out build, but this was a nice contrast to that. Wayfarer's stuff looks very professional. 👍
I'll definitely have a few updates along the way, but so much of it is DONE!
This should be called: My Dad Did it All, and I did nothing.
Pretty cool that these guys have standardized a kit to make a quick install happen. I'm sure it's not for everyone but for those who are less handy, or in a time crunch, it looks like a good thing.
On a side note, I wouldn't let that guy who installed the roof vent slop sealant on my van. You can seal things without being sloppy.
I agree Disappointed with his sloppiness.
Isn't the excess sealant removable afterwards? Or would it be a pain to do that?
@@freya1-1
It would definitely be a pain once it was cured. I built boats for 30 years and boats are obviously at greater risk where leaks are concerned. We seal things above and below the waterline without blobs of caulk over everything. Our caulk seems are smooth and fairly inconspicuous. I have not rewatched this video but if I recall correctly, the guy was just dumping the sealant over the top of the screws/seams as a "preventive measure". Totally unnecessary. If the surfaces are sealed, they are sealed.
I loved watching Alexander’s build but this makes a lot of sense. Not everyone has months to do the build or two really handy guys to donate tons of time to your van.
Well, that certainly is an efficient way of doing things.

Yeah, they have quite a few different little add ons that are so cool. As I start to put the miles in I might grab the table!
I love the concept! These guys are amazing!
They definitely pull off a great concept!
Was really stoked to see one of these promaster builds in person yesterday. Some friends freon Colorado Springs are in town for Christmas. I love how minimalist this build is and allows for plenty of expansion room. Now you need some heat!!!

Regardless, this is such a great idea. Even here in Australia I could order all the parts and install them myself.
Great video. Thanks for producing. And congrats to Wayfarer for filling such a niche market. 👏😃
Glad you liked it! Yep, it's very "removable" in case the next person isn't interested in having the camper kit in their.
this is just sick! i'm the same way, a van build seems too time taxing. thanks for this.
Haha it would definitely test limits of my patience.
Vent installers moto, no dents no dings no scratches no rust prevention, dodgy
thought the same here.
I am super jealous! That van is going to change your life. I'm super stoked to follow the adventures.

Amazing spending all that money build it in a brand new van and install a hand pump faucet did they ever hear about an electric one?

Pressure pumps are better.

It's like buying a furniture for your house: the time it takes for delivery and placement isn't the only cost... plus, the advantage of not having the van tied up for months is enormous. If the owner is making payments on a van that can't be used/driven for 3 or 4 months, all those payments are wasted expenditures.
@@pahrn I'm not disputing that. I'm impressed that there's a market for it with such a high markup and fast install. Prefab wood and rope is very cheap to manufacture. If all parties are happy then it's a fantastic business model.
Great price in my opinion, the time and effort saved is worth more.
dude that's sick I've been waiting for this for a wile now but the wait was all worth it
It came out really nice!
Everything is easy, when someone else is doing it.
Big time!
Looking good,Brian! Can't wait for your new adventures in it.
Gonna be fun!
Is it really a build if you didn’t build it at all? Do none of the work and reap all the benefits 😂. It’s like those people that pay for ripped jeans to look trendy and street
Who cares how he does it? If he's just building to be mobile and adventure and doesn't care about saving money...and it's his money he's spending...then hey no harm, no foul.
