In this video we go through the process of treating any rust inside of our van, pop riveting any screw and drill holes in the van, priming and painting all the bare metal in the van. We also go through what we have used ad how much we have spent. We hope you enjoy the episode and find it useful. If you do drop us a like and subscribe.

This self build van conversion series will give a step-by-step guide of how we convert our VW Crafter van into a campervan (adventure van, overlanding van). We have no experience in van conversions but have lots of DIY experience but want to convert our van so we can experience van life in the UK & Europe, with the dream of shipping it to America next year.

We hope to build an adventure overlanding van comparable to a Mercedes Sprinter AWD, Winnebago Revel similar to Living the Van life and travel like Kinging it.
Thanks for watching.

Our van is a VW Volkswagen Crafter Long wheel Base LWB 4Motion 2022.
