Thanks my man, totally appreciate it. What I didn't cover was that if you saw early in the video my damper pipe had sheared off. So I didn't have a damper. Having the 2 90° elbows in the piping totally acted as a damper and worked perfectly! I highly recommend this setup. Thanks for watching dude!
Dude I could too! Does get a little tight after a few days in the snow but so cool. I'd usually pop the top but keeping it down helps keep it warm. The top makes all the difference. If I had to live in it, I'd want a high top so you could at least stand up. Thanks for watching buddy!
You're a classic Bud! Came in from the east and home to the west. Love that place, looking forward myself in the next couple of weeks. 4K nice upgrade!
Thanks a lot dude. Of course you know where this was! And how I came in and went because why wouldn't you haha! As always, good seeing you. I had a funny incident with a sticker. May do a short about it, then you'll have something to find. Weather's getting good!
This channel should be MUCH BIGGER than it is! You have the know how and have done so many different things with so many different "Items"! That was hard to word. I cannot believe you have a VW van in that kind of shape! So AWESOME!! Do you mind if I ask what year the van is?
Yeah dude! So I'm not the only one who feels that way haha? Hey thanks a lot for watching. Tell your friends! We are getting there but it's a slog hahaha. Dude it's a sweet bus. It's a 79 same year as me!
@@hoppycamper When I was in my youth, I got to camp for one night in a VW Micro Bus. It was an amazing experience. I know it was made in the 1950's or 1960's, it had all of the windows around the top of it. My experience was when I was in my early teens, so that would have been roughly the mid 1970's. My apologies for calling your unit a Van, I knew better than that. I don't know why I said that. Another interesting note, that huge VW chrome metal piece on the hood I still have. The reason I have it is because those were my wife to be's initials and I knew the family that owned the van. VW was her initials until I ruined everything by marrying her some 40+ years ago!
@@jonsymmonds1120 Haha super cool story man thanks for sharing! What a cool bunch of initials to have, never even met a VW, then you had to go and ruin it! haha I hope it worked out well for you and her. Don't you dare apologize, these things are called all manner of names (Samba, Kombi, Van) all the time! Glad you kept the chrome logo, I still have a white logo off a splittie from a junkyard in Georgia in the 90's, those were super cool busses with all that glass! I love seeing them, but these bay window busses are so much more useful and modern than those. But not nearly as pretty! Thanks for tuning in man!
I've had my Bus over 30 years and just learned how to fold the bed up, haha. I always reach to the center to pull it up, but yours latched and went up on its own.... I went out and tried that on mine and did the same thing. I didn't know it was designed to stick in the "taco" position to make it easier to fold. I like the wood stove idea, too. I've long considered replacing the passenger seat with a utility platform with maybe a drawer underneath. I usually go solo anyway and if I do bring company, she usually brings her own car so she can have all of her stuff.
Haha hell yeah man! I love the trick for folding the rear bench. It was a total gamechanger when I discovered it too. There was a thread on TheSamba that mentioned it, along the lines of 'I was today years old when I discovered this....' haha. That's how I learned it. Glad I could help you out! Same here with my wife, she usually brings her minivan so I don't need the seat. Keep it real and keep warm!
Love your van. I missed mine. I had a used 1970 VW camper van like yours after I got out of college. Had it for about 9 years. Took it all over Florida, down to Key West. Then later got a used 1983 Westphalia VW Camper van and took it up the east coast all the way to New England. Had that one for about 11 years. Sure miss the great styling of those vans but missed having air conditioning (I live in Florida) and both had to have a lot of maintenance on a regular basis. Good luck on your travels!
Right on! A Fellow Bus Owner! I had one in the 90's for High School and did the opposite: Went from New England to Florida following Phish around! Was such a blast, I had to get another when we needed a camper! I don't need A/C or Heat haha, just this cool vibe! Thanks for coming along and Hoppy Holidays!
I love the idea of the little piece of wood in your window for your chimney stack. And I love the energy you have. God bless you may you keep making videos. You just got a new subscriber
Interesting heat stove setup. I have a 80 Vanagon Westy that I really enjoy, so I know what it takes to camp in one. Very cool video! Subscribed and liked
Haha I can see why you'd think that! What you probably see is the the bumper. That's all danged up. The muffler is right before that and it's actually made by vintage speed out of Thailand, not a cheap setup but nothing on this is! Thanks for watching man 🍻

Nice dude! Run it! It's not hard to keep it cool, these stoves like everything else heat rises, so the sides are shockingly cool even 2 inches away. No Worries!
@hoppycamper lol you're welcome man. I'm a meat potatoes guy myself man so the ratio of tato looked fine to me brother lol. Heck I wouldve attempted adding a small bag of no yolks egg noodles. After it all started coming together. Heartier the better. Anyway keep on cruisin and doin your thing man. I'll be looking for the next video.
Вау, чувак, это очень круто! Пейзажи очень красивые, я даже сначала подумал, что это Россия! Люблю лес, просто обожаю... Классный контент! Благодаря таким как ты, у меня появилась мечта так же путешествовать на автомобиле)
Хаха, это очень по-русски выглядит, не правда ли? Если бы это было в России, мой Автобус был бы УАЗом, верно? Большое спасибо за просмотр, и я рад, что вы вдохновились! Продолжай, чувак, выходи, это кайф!
I'd trust a Mr. Buddy heater more. I owned two 1974's that I used for Baja. I built a bed in each with storage below. Nothing rides better offroad that one of those. Sidewinds can be hairy and big trucks heading toward you down there.
I had a Mr. Buddy on standby in case I would need it. I didn't use it, but always keep it handy. Love your Baja insights, these things even in 2WD are great out there! And you're dead right about the big trucks, they just suck you in! Thanks for sharing man!
I live in Wisconsin when I was a boy a green VW bug came thru town in the winter the driver took out the passenger seat and had a small wood stove with the pipe coming thru the roof this was around 1970.
Great video but just a little info to share get a wood cutting board every time you cut on a plastic bord it's cutting pieces of plastic into your food nice pop up bus sweet next time try som Dos xx beer a little salt and lime peace ✌ and love ❤
@@hoppycamper wow that's awesome that you responded back glad to hear you upgraded your Chopin bord send me a link to your video if you can couldn't find it thanks ✌ and ♥ stay safe
Hello there, g'day mate ( I know, more Australian than NZ, but still cool!)! I got an Australian buddy from down under, calls my bus a Kombi just like I'm sure you do too!
여기저기서 지켜봐주셔서 정말 감사드립니다! 저는 부산에서 시간을 보냈는데, 그곳에서 'Car Show Stealth Camp'에서 볼 수 있는 Tommy Hilfiger 운동화를 구입했습니다. 여기에서 확인해 보세요. ua-cam.com/video/-4jBJz3fDFk/v-deo.html 시청해주셔서 감사하고 친구들에게 알려주세요!
Haha sweet! I think you'd be surprised. Since heat rises, the sides of really any woodstoves are very cool after about 2 inches and further away. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for noticing! I do love their stuff! I grew up shopping at Demoulas, haha. That's a long time, but my son was there for a while as a bagger. Great bosses! Thanks for watching
Haha I waited till dark for the beer 🍻 (barely)! I wanted to focus a little more on the sensory side of this trip so I did some chilling some cooking. What I mostly did the second day was lay low and I brought my computer so I did some editing.
Used to have a Westie drive it from Temecula ca to Greenville Maine camping all the way because I had a functional gas heater in back it was completely restored and then while I was away it was stolen never to be recovered 25 years ago really miss it now that I have a class a mh
Nice story thanks for sharing! Super bummed it got stolen, where was that? And Greenville, what brought you there? I did an awesome canoe trip out of there a few years back up in the Allagash. What a great spot! Thanks for watching man!
That's what I'm saying man! No noisy clicking fuel pumps either! I always hated how they need battery power too. Plus, I've spilled diesel inside my GTI, took a year to mellow out! That was awful haha. And with this chimney setup, you never need a flue! Up, 90 right, across, and 90 up. I'd simply add a log every few hours. Awesome! Thanks for watching man!
@@irvingzam94 hey dude I scored them off the Samba from a guy who makes them. images.app.goo.gl/frG4oB49zMV3vpQh9 A Google search for 'VW Lantern Hanger' shows a ton of eBay or Etsy vendors. Love it! Take care man
Thanks buddy! Those are General Grabbers, 14.5x7's or something like that. You gotta special order them (tirerack..com) and have a shop do them. They will say they won't fit in stock rims. They're wrong haha
Fuck yeah! I had a 79 Westy I bought for 400 bucks, put about 4k into it and camped all over the place. Sold it when I had kids. MSN do I fucking miss it, and the kids are grown now.
Sounds like you had a great time, man. You can always get another one! This is my second one, wife said we needed a camper and I knew right where to go! Both '79's. Thanks for watching!
Haha, completely original. The motor is completely bone-stock, 2000cc air cooled VW Fuel Injected just as it came from the factory. It's not numbers-matching since I rebuilt it a few years ago. It's shockingly capable in modern traffic. For the heater, I added a 70's-style in-line fan (moslty used as a blower on boats) under the cab to help pull more air up forward. But these never had much heat even new. It's largely just for defrosting the windshield and taking a bit of the edge off. I'm planning to add a diesel heater soon, stay tuned as I'll share it wtih the channel. Thanks for watching!
Hey man, they're a brand called Give'r Gloves. They're great and fire resistant. They make a winter pair too that's thicker. I used a good battery-powered pair of gloves in my Scout Camp Winter Stealther, check that video out. Thanks for watching man! ua-cam.com/video/eyWnpQ3vLjU/v-deo.html
Haha hell yeah man! I'm gonna be straight rolling soon! Had a lot going on lately, baseball season and a few other secrets to share! Stay tuned man, I'm coming back!
Ok so for those who have or want to have a camping video talk about what you're doing for those of us watching can live the dream that we do through you.
Thanks for the advice, I'll definitely keep that in mind for future videos! I did go a bit ASMR for the first 6:30, and feel like it shows through well. Thanks for watching man

Dude honestly I could live in that bus. The cheese burger soup looked awesome.
Dude I could too! Does get a little tight after a few days in the snow but so cool. I'd usually pop the top but keeping it down helps keep it warm. The top makes all the difference. If I had to live in it, I'd want a high top so you could at least stand up. Thanks for watching buddy!

What did you do all day on the second day? One trip to the river and beer time? I was hoping for some more snow adventures.
Haha I waited till dark for the beer 🍻 (barely)! I wanted to focus a little more on the sensory side of this trip so I did some chilling some cooking. What I mostly did the second day was lay low and I brought my computer so I did some editing.
Is there any insulation in that can? In my old vans they had nothing…
No dude, absolutely none! The stove works well, but once it's out it gets chilly! Thanks for watching!

That's what I'm saying man! No noisy clicking fuel pumps either! I always hated how they need battery power too. Plus, I've spilled diesel inside my GTI, took a year to mellow out! That was awful haha.
And with this chimney setup, you never need a flue! Up, 90 right, across, and 90 up. I'd simply add a log every few hours. Awesome!

A Google search for 'VW Lantern Hanger' shows a ton of eBay or Etsy vendors. Love it! Take care man
i don't know what it is you eating but it looks cool
Haha it's cheeseburger soup man, recipe in the description!
What brand tire's you running?? Love the post..😊
Thanks buddy! Those are General Grabbers, 14.5x7's or something like that. You gotta special order them (tirerack..com) and have a shop do them. They will say they won't fit in stock rims. They're wrong haha
Can't beat a steaming pile of mush, on a cold day.
Haha nope, you can't! Thanks for watching
@ Lol. Thanks
watching you while van camping in the catskills brotha!
Dude thats so cool! Thanks for coming along! I hope you're having fun out there, I'll be back out very soon too! Hoppy Holidays man!
I had a homemade stove in my 66 bus. Pipe went through roof. Only heat it had
Amazing!
Thank you! Cheers and Hoppy Holidays!
Fuck yeah! I had a 79 Westy I bought for 400 bucks, put about 4k into it and camped all over the place. Sold it when I had kids. MSN do I fucking miss it, and the kids are grown now.
Sounds like you had a great time, man. You can always get another one! This is my second one, wife said we needed a camper and I knew right where to go! Both '79's. Thanks for watching!
Subscribe big time soon, I saw that little bus the way you camping it just amazing,
Appreciate It
Right on! Thanks for coming along, I appreciate it! Tell your friends and Let's keep going to the moon!
Is the VW Bus original (motor-airhose) heating decent for winter or do you need additional heaters?
Haha, completely original. The motor is completely bone-stock, 2000cc air cooled VW Fuel Injected just as it came from the factory. It's not numbers-matching since I rebuilt it a few years ago. It's shockingly capable in modern traffic. For the heater, I added a 70's-style in-line fan (moslty used as a blower on boats) under the cab to help pull more air up forward. But these never had much heat even new. It's largely just for defrosting the windshield and taking a bit of the edge off.
I'm planning to add a diesel heater soon, stay tuned as I'll share it wtih the channel.
Thanks for watching!
VERY NICE
Right? It was a real adventure! Thanks for watching
cool dude and nice buss! u have my sub :D
Yeah brother, thanks a bunch glad to have you!
Hey what are those gloves, they look warm. Nothing can warm my hands unless its battery powered, maybe you have a secret.
Hey man, they're a brand called Give'r Gloves. They're great and fire resistant. They make a winter pair too that's thicker. I used a good battery-powered pair of gloves in my Scout Camp Winter Stealther, check that video out. Thanks for watching man!

Ok so for those who have or want to have a camping video talk about what you're doing for those of us watching can live the dream that we do through you.
Thanks for the advice, I'll definitely keep that in mind for future videos! I did go a bit ASMR for the first 6:30, and feel like it shows through well. Thanks for watching man
