"I wanted to keep the van as stealthy as possible."
Funny stuff!
Yea, right?!
LOL.
So much good usable technology in this build. No wonder it took a year. Ian, you did good!
Thank you Ginny!
Beautiful creation. My favorite build for the "Regular Guy" to date. Compliments to all who helped in this creation.
Thank you.
100% agree!!!! EVERYONE SHOULD have a bidet.... THAT IS SO COOL!!! A bidet in your van...Nice conversion. Perfect weekend home
Great build, love the little oven. So much detail, all the comfort of home.
Thank you Christine.
brilliant, abso-lute-ly brilliant. Kudos to Josh for his workmanship and you, Ian for the design and gadgets galore. It works for you guys and that's what matters. You boys could do this as a lucrative venture. Many fans wish this lifestyle, yet the customers far outweigh the builders. Three cheers for Ian, the innovator.
Thank you for watching and your kind words Terry.
Awesome van. I like how excited you are to show it to us. You can tell how proud you are. Congratulations on a great build.
Thank you.
Coolest van conversion yet, just amazing. I took notes from start to finish. I just got my minivan this week, and so glad I saw your video before my project. Blessings on your travels,
Gogo
Thank you Karen. Be sure to check out my minivan conversion video too.
Sweet build out and great resource list. Thanks for sharing.
That bidet idea is awesome lol 👍👍👍👍 Thanks for the video !
Thanks for watching Maria!
You had me at bidet. Nice clean build with clever touches.
Thank you Kathi.
Heck yeah!!! You have done an amazing job with your van. My boyfriend's parents had a 1981 Ford clubwagon van. His mother has been in a wheelchair for a long time and that's why they had it. They actually adopted him and his two siblings so that they wouldn't be split up. Anyway they gave him that van for his birthday this past Dec. We haven't started yet but we want to. Can't afford much due to being on disability but it really doesn't take a lot just to get started and stay close to home. I hope.
@@marylynnhorne5332 where are you located with that van you want to build in?
@CG34 Yes we are....thinking about selling it. Wife and I are wanting to get a travel trailer.
Very well thought out build! Very impressive! But wow a bidet 😀 Thats an awesome addition!
Thank you for watching Lucy.
The swivel hitch tool box f****** awesome
very cool, and thanks for all the links to the things you used!
Thanks Matt!
one of the nicest cargo van builds that I have seen on here... everything is well thought out and practical.
Thank you Lionel.
Also, bidets are absolutely awesome. Mine has been waiting to be installed, in our house, for 2 yrs! Grrrr
Call a plumber or hire a handyman from the classifieds and the waiting will be over. Can't be that expensive, it's not that hard unless you need wall plumbing done. Mine just attached to the water valve beneath the tank.
Girl pull it up on utube and diy. I would.
My oh my, it looks great! How far van builds have come from the early ones. Great design, great functionality also. Kudos!
Thank you.
So many excellent little add-ons! But the one that just blows me away is the bidet!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Glad you like it. Thanks for watching Bunny.
You thought of everything. This is my favorite van build I have watched. You put a lot of thought and effort into everything and it shows. Great job
Thank you for watching and your kind words.
So many original cool ideas here. Awesome work!
Thank you.
Very well thought out...love the fireplace....kudos on the luggable-loo....very handy....the 1st time you need it, you'll be GLAD you have it...the privacy curtain is a nice touch [kudos to the missus] 😊Happy travels☺🙋♀️
Thank you Leila.
How I missed your build is beyond me. Glad I found it. Wonderful job. Happy camping!
Thanks for watching!
Wow! I am completely blown away. What an awesome van build. So much crammed into a small space. Love that jackknife couch, looks very comfortable. Interesting how you have vented the fridge. So clean.
Thank you.
Yes excellent job. What brand is that jacknife couch ? I really like that a bed isn't permanently taking up space.
WoW! That's a cool van, man. I dig it! Thanks for the fridge vent idea.
Thanks for watching Joseph.
Ingenious design! You’ve some fabulous ideas here. Thanks so much for sharing your project.
Thanks for watching Terri.
now that is nice! I like your attitude as well!
Thank you for watching and your kind words.
Well done, very creative. Man you have done a very nice job on that regular van. "You go boy!"
Thank you for watching James.
Awesome well planned, love it
Thank you Edna for watching.
Nice cuddle bed for two and I got good ideas for increasing security; great rv stove and sizable burners too; yes, bidet attached to toilet is a must. Next, wife says: "Honey can I have a high top?"
Thank you for sharing and the tip on the pillow!!!!
Thank you for watching!
CONGRATULATIONS
I am amazed with your convertion. It tops everything I've seen, including pro convertions.
WELL DONE !
Thank you Hernani!
Fantastic job!
Thank you!
I am so IMPRESSED. Started watching your videos when you first got the van. I did pray too when i made the hole on my roof lol and thought about you. It looks amazing, looks like it was made by professionals. i did the floor of my van based on yours and got some other ideas from you too. I just finished my bed. i haven't done any cabinetry work because i have been traveling. Thank you for posting ALL THE BUILD UP VIDEOS. They were really helpful and clear to understand especially for me who had no idea about anything. God bless.
Chevy Van Travel thank you for the kind words. I am glad the videos were of some help to you.
This is a lovely and rather cozy van build. Thanks to both of you fo showing your expertise❣️🌹♥️🎁😇 Many blessings😇
Thank you for watching Lorea.
I really loved it. It has a home feeling on the go. Great, Congratulations.!!!! Will be copying almost everything from your van since I will be working in my Van.
Thank you. Copy away!
Yes, me too.
Great stuff in there !!
Thanks for watching Jon.
Wow!!! I`m really impressed. Love the build, the van is really nice. I wish I had something like it.
Thank you.
That's one of the best campervan conversions I've ever seen. Great design coupled with great quality workmanship. And that list of equipment you took the time to list is a great reference for anyone contemplating a similar project. Thanks :)
Thank you Mike!

Glad you like it!
Wow I'm impressed I'm currently looking for a van now but urs is amazing and ur security cameras and that internet that I gotta look into
I’m sold! Loooove the bidet! Thank you for solving that.
Any time!
THE. MOST. AMAZING. VAN. BUILD. E V E R !!!!! I couldn't function in a camper van - I'm on the larger side and can't work with cabinets low to the ground - but I'm truly amazed at all the wonderful things you've packed into this build! It's inspiring! I'm going to use some of these ideas with our Scamp trailer.
Thank you for your feedback!
I have watched all your build videos , sweet🤙🏼

Nette, thanks for watching!
Ian & Teresa Skelley My pleasure!✨💫
Great job
Thank you for watching Debra.
Thanks for the video. Fabulous job. My latest conversion is a Renault Trafic LWB van into a "Touring Van". We don't sleep in the van but use it for trips around Australia and stop for a cup of tea or coffee in nice spots. We sleep in Caravan Park cabins. This is the fourth van I have done in the last 30 years ( I am 80 now). Our van setup is removable in 15 minutes in case we need to fit facilities for a gopher. Thanks again for giving me inspiration to do more in our van.
Thanks for watching and I am glad the video inspired you.
Good one mate .. fabbo in every direction.. oh .. and NASA wants there shuttle back ..😁
