Переглядів 86 тис.2 роки тому
We converted a 2006 Toyota Hiace Commuter into a campervan allowing us to see the best of Australia by road. Hope you enjoy our van build Instagram: @barney_n_scrog barney_n_scrog #vanconversion #vanbuild #toyotahiace #vanlife #vanlifeaustralia
Thank you for entering the Outback Explorer Competition! We LOVE this video so much. Not long now until we draw our winners, good luck! And thank you for supporting the RFDS and Elders. 🙏
Thank you! Love everything the RFDS does for our rural and remote communities in providing essential health care and life saving services 🌟
Beautiful! I'm in the research phase of my van life, and was going down the Sprinter route - currently having an inspection done on one, with a view to buying it - but now I've stumbled upon a really good quality SLWB Hiace with a high roof and am thinking that might be the way to go! Everyone knows you can't beat the Hiace for reliability. And I'm rather daunted at the possibility of dealing with European car-part delays and servicing expenses with the Sprinter. Anyone got any ideas whether 5 foot 5 me would be comfortably able to stand in a high roof Hiace once it's got flooring and ceiling?

Quite nice work, well done! How did you get the eletrical work done? Did you registered the van from commercial to camper in the end? Cheers
Man hopefully in likee 4 years there will be ppl making these and selling it mAybe like help ok
Hey, we have the same van and are getting heaps of ideas from your video! Where did you get the heshen sack material you used to cover the gaps / weird areas?
So excited for your building you van. Sorry for the late reply. We got the hessian material from Bunnings in the rope aisle. It was great for covering the small gaps where different surfaces met and tied the van together. I’ll add a link so you can see the product, I believe this is the one we got: www.bunnings.com.au/grunt-50mm-x-25m-jute-webbing_p4310865
Awesome job 🤠👍🍻🎸🌳🏞️🌄
Good vid
Great video, it didnt look like it was insulated, do you think you can get way with not doing that or is it agood idea.
So cute and cosy.
Wow
What a great video. One of the best van conversions vids I’ve ever seen! Cheers from the USA 🇺🇸
0:35 Been there. ABC Western Australia used a photo of that rock for a while.
would love to know how much you spent on the fitout
Far too many people just floor over the fuel pump access BIG Mistake.
This build is amazing! Absolutely LOVE it! I am about to do one of my own and would really love to see some more of your footage 😁 you guys have done an exceptional job!
Great skills. Great solutions. Great imagination. Great job!
Fantastic video hard work pays off

❤love this
Thank you ☺️
love this cheers from perth gives me confidence to have a go myself
Thank you ☺️ It can be daunting initially but once you get started it’s a fun and super rewarding process 🌟 Especially if you’re from Perth it’s such a beautiful way to travel WA 🚐🌞🌊
Love your camper van very much, I also want to convert one myself, because I like to travel, but I don't have a production license, can I do it myself? Will the police or RTA trouble me? If you know, can you tell me? Thanks!
Thanks for your support on the video :) Totally can do it yourself just have to make sure you don't exceed your vehicle's gross weight limit and meet your registration guidelines. For example we brought our van as a 12 seat bus and converted into a 2 seat Campervan. This meant we had to get two modification plate checks along the way. The first one was when we removed all the rear seats, so we changed the registration from 12 seats to 2 seats. Then after we completed our build in order to enable the van to be insured at market value we changed the registration from a 2 seat bus to a 2 seat Campervan; this was our second modification plate which also required inspection by QLD transport. There are a few requirements that you have to meet to be registered as a Campervan including having a fire extinguisher, the amount of seats equals the amount of sleeping space, having a 'kitchen' and everything being safely secured. The rules might differ per state and I can't recall all the guidelines you have to meet but hopefully this will give you an idea of a place to start your research. All the best, it's such a great way to travel and a rewarding experience to build it yourself
What an amazing conversation, how did you get all your ideas ? Do you have any links on the research you did. Well done !!
Thanks for your support on the video :) We got a lot of our ideas from various van life pages on facebook including 'Van Life Australia'. We watched some youtube videos too but mainly flicked through lots of interior photos of van builds to seek our inspiration and brainstormed ideas to create a van that suited our needs
We need more videos
Thank you, hopefully more to come… just need to get around to editing them all ☺️
@@barneynscrog good 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Hey ! I have the same van and I’m having problems with the roof legs, the height between the gutters and the roof is like 450mm Where di you guy bought the roof racks legs ? Thank’s
Hey sorry for the late reply, hopefully you’ve found a solution. For us we picked up second hand rhino racks from a salvage yard and they happened to fit, I’m not sure of the exact specifications of the rhino racks though sorry
Lost for words
Great DIY build, great video! Take care, have fun!
Sweet van! To more adventures!
Bloody great job guys
Hey there! I watched and subscribed.. I love Australia!
Thank you ☺️ we love Australia too! Such a beautiful country 🌟
Nice job looks great. I'm building up a Hiace 4wd, hope it turns out as nice as yours lol. Enjoy your journeys.
thank you for your support! Sorry for the late reply, hope your van build is going well! How great to have a 4wd in a Hiace, exciting adventures ahead for you too :)
Great conversion, the wardrobe is my wish😜
Thank you! Sorry for the late reply… initially Matt thought an upright wardrobe was an unnecessary luxury however I convinced him and it become one of the best parts of our build. It meant we could hang some of our nicer clothes without them getting creased and there’s was bountiful storage underneath. Highly recommend ☺️
Awsome work guys
love this!! one of the best small van conversions ive seen, would definitely love to see more content and a van tour video 🙌
Thanks for the love on our van build Zara ! Sorry for the late reply, we have plenty of footage to share just need to find the time to edit it all lol. Hopefully some more videos soon :)
Just found this video of your conversion real awesome, I’m looking forward to following you both. I have a Toyota Hiace campervan long wheel base not a slwb, I live in it full time. Cheers
Do you find the Hiace to be too low for living in it full time? I'd love to know, as I'm thinking of buying a high roof SLWB. I'm five foot five.
Hello How much you spend buying 2006 toyota hiace? Thank you!
How tall is it inside?
Hey sorry for the late reply, the van was 165cm inside ☺️
That was great to watch
Thank you ☺️
Well done folks alot of skill in this vid happy travels from FNQ
Thank you ☺️
Awesome work guys. Memories for a lifetime
Thanks Craig 🙏🏼 yep we very lucky to live in a such a beautiful country and make these memories 🌞
