Followed your last project Gordon with great interest. It inspired me to go and get a van. It’s the best thing we’ve done. Really looking forward to watching the T6 change! Good luck 👍🏻
I bought a 66 plate T6 last year already converted to a Kombi. I've 3 young children 2, 4 and 6 so didn't have the time to do it myself as we moved into a new house which we pulled apart too. Looking forward to seeing series 2 🤘
How about changing the barn doors to a tailgate... Be a really helpful video and bonus for the van.. You only appreciate a tailgate when you are court in the rain and in UK that is pretty often!! Come on Gordon let's have it! Do the big one by your self for everyone else!! Nice one mate! (long time subscriber) tailgate owner../ For the good of humanity! go for it 👍
Awesome van dude, let’s get cracking with the conversion! I do love the t6 front end including the dash, but couldn’t swap the 5 in just for that.... or could I?.......🤣
Nice van dude! Can I ask if those wheels are calibration cc-u 20 inch 9j? And if so do you have any rubbing on full lock, fed up of my rr wheels and those wheels look the nuts, keep up the good work
Not sure if you know Gordon, but your test live stream has comments and chat turned off, just in case you were wanting feedback on it for those that didn't watch it live ;-)
Literally just got my T6. Would be great if you could comment on the differences as I did watch season 1. In fact I'll give you a list of stuff I need you to do so I can follow along!
Hi Gordon. I think your videos are brilliant, keep it up mate. I've done a few things you've covered and I'm thinking of fitting the electric windows on my t5 camper van. How long do you think it will take roughly?
Hi Robert, probably about half a day if you've got all the tools you need for it there and then. Probably worth allowing a whole day, or even better start it on the Sat so if needed you always have the Sunday just to tidy anything up. Hope that helps bud 👊🏼😎
@@GDUBTV thanks mate. You've really given me the confidence to have ago myself. Wish me luck!! I'm going to do the wing mirrors as well because they look so cool after you fitted them to your van and they'll make a big difference to the look of mine 😊

@@GDUBTV I'm looking for a T5 myself, with specific needs (4Motion, lwb, ac, cruise) and whenever I find a pretty looking one it's missing at least AC. I could retrofit cruise but not AC. So it immediately caught my eye when I saw the dials and missing AC button :D
CultOfMU I’ve just been through the same process as you have before buying my T5! Everyone my girlfriend and I found first thing we did was look for that AC button! Hope you find one soon 👍🏻
@@GDUBTV i like the idea of doing a conversation myself and your first vids inspired me to consider doing one. but in reality with work atm i don't have the time. thinking of getting one done is the best route. Might be making you a offer when its done.
I’ve just bought a 16 year old Audi A3 and it looks like crap but the engine is smoooooooooth! Not ideal but will get me to work, saving up for a transit custom
Lovely van Gordon!! Really looking forward to this project!! Well done mate
Thanks pal :)

Tidy! Good luck on the build! Nice videos!
Thanks mate!
Me too. Bought mine today. Collect it Tuesday after the bank holiday. Be good to follow your conversion. 😁
I'm sure you're going to have a very big smile on your face on Tuesday... enjoy it! :)

Ace, glad to hear it!
Great to see you back with a new van
Thanks... it's good to be back!
The USB is just an auxiliary input for playing music from mobile if you can’t connect via Bluetooth. It won’t act as a charging port.
That explains it then!! Thanks pal 👊🏼😎

Awesome van dude, let’s get cracking with the conversion! I do love the t6 front end including the dash, but couldn’t swap the 5 in just for that.... or could I?.......🤣
Do it!! lol
Will you miss the extra length....? This new one is shorter! 40 cms, isn't it?
I'm not so sure we will, but it's a good question!
Hi Gordon,which T6 did you go for.Thinking of buying a VW but undecided which one is best to convert.
Mine was a Sportline, had all the bumpers etc on it, but for me it was just spending as little as poss to get a T6 rather than a T5.1.
Nice van dude! Can I ask if those wheels are calibration cc-u 20 inch 9j? And if so do you have any rubbing on full lock, fed up of my rr wheels and those wheels look the nuts, keep up the good work

That’s one hot van
Thanks 👊🏼😎🔥
what's it like on the motorway being a 101bhp i know you mapped it but what's it like with only 5 speed ?? cruising wise ??
Drives fine on motorways, but a 6th gear would be lovely!!
Lovely, 👍
Thanks 👊🏼😎
Check out those rims! haha

@@GDUBTV cheers mate been looking at them
What is the width between the wheel arches inside the van and is the load in the back bigger than a vw caddy?
Can you make the reverse camera your first project so I can copy yours 😎
Sadly not the first job, but will hopefully be quite an early one! 👊🏼😎
How big is the engine... my T6 is a twin turbo TDI 204hp...
I think it’s a 2.0 tdi running about 140 bhp, nippy enough for a camper, but not a racer!
How much did you pay for the van if you don’t mind me asking ?
Almost both kidneys!
T6 without A/C? I didn't know that even was possible to order.
Yep, the paupers edition! lol

How did it take you 3 hours on the train and only 1.5 hours getting home?
The train was delayed and the journey included several changeovers, some walking and a bit of waiting!
Nice 👍 👍 👍
Thanks :)
Is this keeper or are you selling it once done?
At the moment I really want to keep it, but the plan is to convert it quickly and if we need the extra money for the house move it'll have to go!

How much? Thats awsome
Felt like both kidneys, but maybe just one!
Don't put window in the back
Not too sure... keep changing my mind!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Subbed 👍👍👍
Thanks Scooby!! 👊🏼😎
No air con?
Sadly not, but my last one didn't have it either. Get used to it after a while! 😅
Did ya sell ur old one?
Yep, to a mate who's currently on a European tour in it... not jealous in the slightest!! lol
