It feels like we’re finally starting to get somewhere with this RV restoration! *Watch more RV videos here* 🎥 th-cam.com/play/PL29AtJe_IGx_hb6wCY5-xyznc0A74vO7M.html
For the exterior aluminum what you really want are rivets, not staples. Rivets can go through the existing holes while staples will make 2 new holes. Less holes are always better.
The front overhang window? Get some aluminum and cover that hole up! I wish I would have done that on mine! That window takes road debris and high wind and always leaked or broke. At some point, most Class C builders just stopped putting windows there! Cover it up and move on.....
I was saying that during the video. The window is angled perfectly for ultimate failure. A new piece of metal and and some matching paint will make future inevitable leaks not possible.
Agreed. Fair enough if they were going to restore it, but looks like they are just renovating it. They probably think it's just like doing up an old home. It's going to be a disaster
meganhodges, too bad they didn't wear masks in the store where they bought the pneumatic stapler. Not positive at all. Sad that they both wore masks during the demo, but NOT going out in public. BTW, the snowflakes that responded to my post - Did any of you go to the BOK Center on Saturday in Tulsa? BAAAAHHHAAAHHHAA
The thing I like about you guys is that you're really positive about fixing this RV up, sorting the rotten wood, old sealant etc etc. So many resto projects I've seen have made it look so hard and frustrating to do this sort of work. You guys are just powering through it with such a positive attitude, it's lovely. :-)
You could just block off the front window, if you can find matching aluminum. It is a sleeping area so you don't need a window, but if you do go for a replacement window, to stop it leaking in the future make sure you seal it, seal it again and seal it one more time just to be sure. When you're driving that area gets all the weather thrown at it.
Genial Harry Grout gotta have a window up there...if I absolutely had to sleep up there a window is a must. Just thinking about it shoots my claustrophobia sky high.
I'm happy you two were able to pivot and continue living the adventure. I'm loving the RV renovation and look forward to all your travel adventures here in the states.
Such an ambitious project! Love watching this process and I can’t wait to see the result! Looking forward to future videos of you traveling the country in your RV.
I’m so happy I found you guys the last few weeks. I am now going back and watching all of your adventures. Love what you do. Thanks for doing the RV. I only wish you would take a middle-age lady along on your tips with you. Let me know if you’re interested.
Way to go you guys! Taking on a conversion is not easy! We started our skoolie in September and thought we would be done in February! The other day we made a list of all the things we still want to do until we roll out into the wild. We still have 70 things on our list! Lol! Wishing you guys so much fun, adventure and acquired new skills! You will be sooo much more proud of this project than you could ever imagine! The bond Brian + I are creating through this journey is amazing as well! You’ve already travelled together, if you can get through this together... you really will be indestructible! Hehe big love adventure friends! Erin + Brian too
I don’t know what I’m more excited for, your renovation or the adventures you guys have! I absolutely love how far you’ve got so far! She’s beautiful 🥰
Thanks, Zoe! We're having a blast and learning so much! We can't wait to finally be done with the cab and move on the rest of the RV. Although, I'm sure we'll come across a whole new slew of problems back there 😅
You guys rock. We bought a 1977 Winnebago Brave three years ago and had a blast restoring her. Hang in there when you hit the unexpected problems. Remember, the renovation is part of the adventure. Keep the RV videos coming.
"Watch yourself on that table saw! She'll kick back on ya. HEY. (holds up a hand with a finger missing) I'm not Effing around here!" Tim Allen bit about a shop class teacher.
Times are hard. Thank you for keeping to work. I enjoy whatever it is. We own a food truck in Kansas, We too have found new ways to make it work. We cut our cable ... gosh 10 years ago. So we enjoy whatever you put out.
You have gave me the confidence I need to start on my 88 ford Econoline. Saving all winter to start in the spring. Watching all ur old videos for loads of help😊ty so much for sharing ❤❤❤
I have been watching you guys for a long time now and I must say that it has been very entertaining. Your travel and food experiences have been very enjoyable and informative to watch. To be able to travel and enjoy the hospitality that other countries have to offer is a wonderful thing. If you ever find yourself back in Wales please drop me a line. I would love to show you some of the sites that my little corner of Wales has to offer. Keep up the good work and I'm looking forward to seeing the RV completion. Stay safe and well.
As someone who has trouble assembling IKEA furniture, I find your efforts hilarious. Thanks for having a sense of humor about your project. It's really fun to watch!
Wow great progress so far. 😀😀😀 For someone who knew absolutely nothing about fixing or repair stuff, you both surely are doing a great job!!! 🛠️ 🧰 👷Keep it up!
Thanks guys! We're currently having more fun than headaches and hoping it stays that way. We'll be so excited when we actually get close to being on the road, though...fingers crossed it's before winter 😅
I thought you guys were nuts when you bought this RV but this is a great series watching the renovation. I can't wait until it is done and we get to see it being used!
At my place when rain is predicted in news... the rain never comes. Its like rain follows news more than us. It just does the opposite of what is predicted in news.
I/we admire you guys so much. You give us all something to look forward to during this difficult time. Keep the videos coming, best wishes, and stay safe!
I thought I was handy but there are some tools I won’t touch, like anything that can slice my arm off. You two are very handy even tho you say you aren’t! By the time you’re done, you’ll know every inch of that rig. Don’t get discouraged if things look overwhelming at first and just keep working on it when you can. Great video.
It feels like we’re finally starting to get somewhere with this RV restoration! *Watch more RV videos here* 🎥 th-cam.com/play/PL29AtJe_IGx_hb6wCY5-xyznc0A74vO7M.html
Luv your channel!!! You guys are fun to hang out with :)
You are so good at building! That framing is fantastic!
Love watching you!
/Sara in Sweden 😊
Love this, love seeing the journey
Loving your renovation videos! X
Great job . Are you giving the camper van a re-spray. it would look good with a fresh coat of paint
It’s amazing how every TH-cam couples travelers channels is doing and rebuilding their new vans.
Fly Sky yes Eamon and Bec,Trent and Allie are building a new little house too!
I would have build installation so the car would be winter proof.
For the exterior aluminum what you really want are rivets, not staples. Rivets can go through the existing holes while staples will make 2 new holes. Less holes are always better.
I think staples will rust too.
Stainless steel rivets would be the best.
Ask Coachmen how you can do it properly.
Yes to rivets!
Never tried rivets into wood , I used galavanized staples into pressure treated wood, I had to rebuild the overhead on a coachman also
The front overhang window? Get some aluminum and cover that hole up! I wish I would have done that on mine! That window takes road debris and high wind and always leaked or broke. At some point, most Class C builders just stopped putting windows there! Cover it up and move on.....
Agreed!!
Darn good point! No need for a window there at all.
I was saying that during the video. The window is angled perfectly for ultimate failure. A new piece of metal and and some matching paint will make future inevitable leaks not possible.
I was thinking the same, cover it.
Ahhh fingers crossed the bad weather clears up soon! Such a massive journey guys, loving watching the progress! 🙌
I love these videos, you two! It's like "This Old RV" (as in "This Old House"). You're learning so much and you're doing a great job! Stick with it!
You have officially invested into a money pit! However, life is an adventure!! Enjoy the fruits of your labor!👏
Agreed. Fair enough if they were going to restore it, but looks like they are just renovating it. They probably think it's just like doing up an old home. It's going to be a disaster
Laying on my couch with Coronavirus and this video made me so happy. I love you guys, thanks for always being such a positive influence❤️
Get well soon!
Hope you are better soon!

smtpgirl care more about their own lungs I guess. Not so much others.
@@smtpgirl keep drinking that kool aid . . You'll learn one day
Was just watching an old vlog then this popped up yay!!!! My whole family loves watching you guys.

@@Elizabeth-rq1vi Def a claustrophobia potential without the window. My husband wants to remove.. no no no
My RV has a front window, and I would be more than willing to eliminate that front window and just use the two side vents.
I'm happy you two were able to pivot and continue living the adventure. I'm loving the RV renovation and look forward to all your travel adventures here in the states.
Such an ambitious project! Love watching this process and I can’t wait to see the result! Looking forward to future videos of you traveling the country in your RV.
My dad just hated those covers. Inside humidity is always a big problem when you RV. Fun story and thank you.
I've been waiting for this video, yay! Can't wait to see how it turns out, you're smashing it! :)
"Just got to do that seven more times... Yaayyyy😢" 😂😂😂
Slip of the drill... "Ooopsy" 😂 😂 😂.
❤️❤️
So satisfying when all the old trash is taken away 😀
It's coming along nicely!
I’m so happy I found you guys the last few weeks. I am now going back and watching all of your adventures. Love what you do. Thanks for doing the RV. I only wish you would take a middle-age lady along on your tips with you. Let me know if you’re interested.
Can't wait! Loving this reno! It's brilliant watching it unfold. Roll on pt3 🥰
Endless adventure seems like an endless budget and hard work!
Love these videos 👍
Everytme Eric says "whoopsie" I close my eyes!
😂🤣🙏LOL
LoL
As I sit here munching on beef chilli, my phone goes bing, new video of my favourite youtubers, I am intrigued to see each step of progress.
What a lot of work you guys put into it so far, you have my admiration!😍 Can't wait till it's all done ☺️ and watch your continuing Adventures🏕️🚙

Loving your new videos. Very different from what we’re used to. Thank you for taking us along your new journey. Keep them coming!
You guys rock. We bought a 1977 Winnebago Brave three years ago and had a blast restoring her. Hang in there when you hit the unexpected problems. Remember, the renovation is part of the adventure. Keep the RV videos coming.
Love it that you call it 'vintage', I'm as old / young at 'The Old Girl'. I prefer to think of myself as 'retro'!
1:58 Try not to stand directly behind the wood you're pushing through a table saw!
Use a pusher stick always...
That too
Good advice. I remember the bruise I picked up when one half of the piece I sawed came straight back at me .
Yes! Google/TH-cam tablesaw kickback and UNDERSTAND THIS!
"Watch yourself on that table saw! She'll kick back on ya. HEY. (holds up a hand with a finger missing) I'm not Effing around here!" Tim Allen bit about a shop class teacher.
Love watching these videos. I love seeing old things recycled and cleaned up!
Just keep at it! Those 1970's RV's are getting few and far between! Semper Fidelis
Interesting Latin. My RM son trained with you chaps in West Virginia.
Great to see the progress of the RV. Can't wait to see you guys back on the road again
Can’t wait to see the finished result. It’s looking good so far and I’m genuinely impressed by the work you’ve pout in.
Times are hard. Thank you for keeping to work. I enjoy whatever it is. We own a food truck in Kansas, We too have found new ways to make it work. We cut our cable ... gosh 10 years ago. So we enjoy whatever you put out.
You have gave me the confidence I need to start on my 88 ford Econoline. Saving all winter to start in the spring. Watching all ur old videos for loads of help😊ty so much for sharing ❤❤❤
We've followed your adventures around the world but as RV'ers ourselves, we cannot wait to follow along for the next chapter!
It’s great watching the progress, you’re doing a really good job, can’t wait until it’s finished I bet it will be amazing xx
these are great videos. watching you two remodeling the RV, learning what can be done. Thank you
Great Job!!! I am so glad that you gave a shot of the progress inside too. Looking forward to new videos!
Two very useful brothers. One is very handy and one brings beer 😊.

Thanks so much for the message and offer, Dyllan! We definitely hope to get back to Wales soon 🙌
Thanks for sharing your reno with us! You too are amazing. Have fun on your local adventure!!!!
As someone who has trouble assembling IKEA furniture, I find your efforts hilarious. Thanks for having a sense of humor about your project. It's really fun to watch!
5:31 I do that with my siblings,too 😆Usually with both 'birds' and I do a lil dance. 😆😆
So stoked about this whole adventure!!!
Who else feels the same way!? You're brightening up my 2020!
Love this! Thanks, Chris 🙌
Watching you renovate such an old and worn out RV gives me confidence to work on mine! It's not even that damaged and old!
You sound like Link, from good mythical morning in some moments! This is a new movement! 😂🤍💛

Fold four corners of cover to center. When ready to cover everything on rv, boat, plane, lay on top and let gravity do the work.
I love the exterior paint stripes! Please keep them!!
Don't worry! The current paint job is our favorite part. 🧡Even if we do repaint or do some touchups, we'll be keeping the stripes 🙌
The Endless Adventure yay glad to hear!
You are good in the wood shop! Cannot wait to see the finished product!
I am so impressed with you guys. It looks like that RV is going to be better than new when you finish.
I love these videos! Can't wait to see how it all turns out!
I'm loving these RV videos guys! 🤗
This is exciting.’I can’t wait to see it finished.
