What an excellent Van build brilliant video

As soon as I saw the vehicle being wrapped for protection I knew this was going to a lesson in a quality vanbuild. 👏👌 well done

This video led me to Spotify. Lovely music. 👍🏻

Its like watching an artist at work 👏

Great job 👏

Love this video 👋

Brilliant cheers 👍🏆🇬🇧

Please can I have the job of peeling the cling film off at the end? Thanks in advance 😂

And brilliant conversion by the way! 👌🏻

Amazing craftsmanship

I enjoyed your creation, nice and good

Thank you for this. It was a privilege to watch.

Nice song guys, it fits right to this van conversion!

I enjoyed watching your phenomenal build. Wow it is an awesome van.

Amazing work! beautiful conversion ,thanks for the video 👌😊

I am liking this video I've just purchased T6 I will be converting myself and now I've seen you do the roof I might even attempt it myself which might save me 4000+

That 'fixed' high roof....is Amazing! Makes the Van 'Stand -Up' & 'Livable'!! Great WORK! Wish my Metris had a High Roof! My Back is sore 'hunched over'! lol!

Thanks! It definitely makes for a great living/ social space. One of our staff has a low roof van and he only sleeps inside, he has a great drive away awning that he lives in when he's camping. You maybe have one but if not they are worth checking out :).

​​@@JerbaCampers I agree, your high top is amazing, as is all the rest of your great work! Can I ask, would you take on a Citroen Spacetourer (van) conversion to a high top? Or is it purely VWs you would convert? I have a driveaway awning but in colder months would prefer a high top. Great job on the conversion! Thanks.

Fantastic bit of footage guys. Just glimpse of all the background work that gives such a superb final result. Looking forward to next videos.

Fascinating, brilliant work.

Fantastic craftsmanship. I am trying to convert my mid roof without compromising room for 2 MTBs and adding a double rear seat. I'm struggling with the layout solution, nevermind the work. Great video, thank you.

Fantastic - will be in the market for a camper next year 😊I maybe in touch 👍

Brilliant Guys

gray carpeting is simply learned helplessness

I’ve got a 4 motion factory bread tin roof which I love to bits My first T5 underwent a austops pop-top conversation which I never really got on with.! Admittedly the high roofs don’t look as cool but no where near as common as the standard vans but for us it’s the real deal and it’s a long term keeper Plus they fall into the new DVLA motor home requirements

I agree. don't think they look cool on a SWB but on a LWB, its looks fine. I will be getting a high-top. Too old for all this pop-up malarky.

Chris Stevens The factory roof is only on the LWB room for a reasonably sized skylight and a decent solar panel Your love it...!

Grand job 👍

Nice!

Impressive work and because it has the fixed high top should pass the DVLA criteria to be certified as motor caravan. Think this is the future of conversion under the new scheme.

I'm not sure but I think you've done this before! So quick.

I can only imagine how much this transformation costs. Excelent job.

Hi guys! Incredible project! Can you please share with me info about soft material you used for walls? what's name of it? Where it cold be bought? Thanks!

Great time-lapse Jerba. What have you used to insulate the floor? Is it one of the ultralight ply/xps blue foam/ply panels? Also you lay a black strip across the width of the van floor prior to the floor being bonded to the van. What's the function of this element? Thanks!

Wow.

Great conversion. Looks fantastic. Do customers typically go for that conversion layout?

From a technical point of view, what happens if I get one of your vans to repair and the fault lies in the wiring hidden by the carpeted sides? Does it have access panels, or do we need to unglue the carpet possibly stretching it?

Do prefer the high tops not to keen on the pop up tops . Great work !👍

J.A.M '68 Had my factory bread tin for three years love it compared to my old pop top if anything the mushroom types are better than the vertical types with the excessive material especially without the soft acrylic type windows that brittle up and discolour.

Beautiful!! Thanks for posting!! Do you buy your plywood like that or do you add the nice finish yourself?

Hi, thanks for your great feedback. Fantastic that you like the Time Lapse. Once we're able to open up production again there'll more to come! The plywood we buy has the laminate finish already applied. Cheers

Great video, now one for all you other conversions also 😂

How does the new high top get fitted to the rest of the body?

Excellent channel Ausgezeichnet channel

My brother sent me a link to a site where I can buy the cupboards and storage for about £700 but I was thinking I could buy the MDF panels for £60 and make it myself

What's the price difference between a pop-top and a high top being fitted?

👏👏👏👏👏

I’ve learnt a lot watching your video as I prepare to cut the roof off of mine. Can I ask, did you weld the strengthening frame to the body of the van? I was thinking of using some simple L plate steel but concerned about welding to the thin skin, or is it thicker once you’ve cut that close to the edge?

@JerbaCampers

No, these are custom made, bolted in to rivets we set in the van on the strengthening pillars of the van, we then pop rivet all around the top. Also applying sikaflex to bond

@@JerbaCampers thanks for getting back to me. I appreciate it. I’m trying to find more info on strengthening frames that people use but everyone seems to make custom and keep the designs to themselves, can’t blame them. Think I’ll use box steel, thanks for the riveting idea - do you rivet the fibreglass to the frame in your case?

What`s the price for conversion for WV T5 high roof long one ???

The video was a bit too fast for me but indeed a great job! The only thing that botters me is the insulation of the roof top. If I saw correctly it consists only of a double sided aluminium bubble wrap and that IMHO should only be used as a vapour barrier and not as insulation, but perhaps I missed something.. ATB

i like you guys doing with the car body but inside not that well you guys want everytiing inside i think you can take out some piece

How much total cost 🤔 in India

I think roof building was not good idea. That cutting roof, I'm not sure after 50.000kms roof can get water into car, or incase of accident there could be not good results because of cutting cars roof. Effect on strehght. Chasis.

Where’s the insulation though? 🤔
