- We got some new updates in Tiny Braap!
We worked at Marcs shop late putting a bed and table in just 12 hours before leaving! Thank you Marc and Vanessa for all your help so far! We would have been sleeping on plywood if it wasn't for you guys! lol.
It was Tiny Braaps first road trip south to Shasta for Thanksgiving with the family. We tested her off road in 4x4 high and low, up steep hills in the dirt to rocky gravel roads, to 1ft of snow. She was braappin no problem! If anything she was in her element!
We have more build content coming soon! Hope you liked this video, give it a thumbs up and subscribe. If you have any questions ask away in the comments section below!
Thank you for watching!!

Need an update on this. Am hoping to have a similar build. Only difference will be converting the van itself to electric first so the panels can also passively charge the car for longer camping trips. Also a similar solar awning but 3 stack instead of 2.
Any chance there is an update video coming soon? I absolutely loved this build series and would love to do a Kei van build in the future!!
Great editing , great work , great couple ..... success to all of you !
Where can I get a set of those roof racks? Mahalos from Big Island🤙🏼 fyi we got the same van!
You don't know how good you've got it! Roaming those vast lands, unbothered. Lighting campfires, enjoying nature. You couldn't do that in Germany, where I live. Oh, how I wish I lived in the land of the free!
On the other hand: Trump. Well, maybe another time.
Adorable! But also that trip looked really beautiful!
Amazing project I've watched all the progress uploads on this little van conversion and surpsingly quite a bit of room in the back of that little thing,Im thinking the van would look also great if it had a small external van storage box on the back door, maybe to store food in or something,Or maybe a lockable jerry can for extra water! :)
Your IG is great but the YT is even better! Would love to see what you guys can do to a Jeep Wrangler!
Wow thank you so much! Jeep Wrangler would be a cool project! Maybe one day down the road:) let us know if you ever need power for your build we can get you set up! Thank you for watching:)
In the UK they're affectionately known as a "Toaster Van" because they look like an electric (sliced bread) toaster on wheels..🤗
In South Africa, back in the 80's, the Suzuki version of this was affectionately called the halfloaf.
@@the_katman2181 Yeh, well that makes sense 😆. Whilst shopping, I saw one converted into a campervan..! My Sister and I had to peer through the window and take a photo of the outside, as it was just too cute, so very tiny...😍.
omg that is the cutest little van ive ever seen I love it! can't wait to see what is next!
Thank you so much! We cant wait to share :)
This thing is epic!! It’s small has awd. Can go anywhere !! Cheers guys !!
Awesome guys. You guys are inspiring me to do it with my dear. Thanks for sharing the video. Stay safe and creative.
perhaps because your bedding foam is so tight wall to wall that, at night, you are, in effect, insulating the living portion of your van from the floor-based heat source. maybe shape the foam cushion overlaying the lagun table to allow more air flow along its sides? sweet little rig though!
Thank you for the feedback! We will give it a try :D
That's a very good point you raise about insulating from the heat source!
Nice work guys!
That's one strong tiny thing😍🤯
Stay warm y’all ❄️
Great videos, very helpful.
I want to buy one to explore Thailand
Thank you For the Video,, Good to see the updates.
I can't wait for the next vid!
It's great to play around with it in winter. When the heat of summer comes, that tiny engine might easily over heat when you're roughing it around and when it's too loaded. Amazing tiny design and quality of work that you both do 👍
How tall are you both and van thanks that was cool video just want more info thanks have a happy thanks giving thanks
Daihatsu Atrai, in Brazil we have Asia Towner, same in Corea
Brapppppps Gobble Gobble adventure! Totally enjoyed watching this video. He’s transforming into a cool little ride. I think Brap needs some X-line exterior for those micro hardcore adventures. Maybe a mini light bar too? Then you could be Brapin in the desert at night. Obsessed with all things little! 😝🤙🏼 I said Brap 3 times. It’s addicting. BRAP! 🤣
Great van build. I got a van very similar to yours here in the UK which was converted in to a camper years ago but I am currently changing a few things to make it work better thanks for some great ideas 👍
I like youre van...
Your lovely Kei camper takes you to some beautiful locations, perhaps repay this good service by fixing the rear screen wiper that still slumps forlornly on the tailgate instead of being properly set up on the glass!
It looks cold where you are, I'd be very tempted to install my Seek Outside Cub Stove into the van to enjoy the heat and to have the stove top surface to cook food or to boil water for earl grey.
If you buy some of those inexpensive door mosquito netting panels kits from Lidl you can make net sets to fit both sliding doors and the tailgate apertures.
An M-Kettle would be a useful thing to have in your camper, boil water using found twigs and small sticks.
If you were to have the sliding solar panel like your friend Cody has on his van, it would act as an improvised awning for when getting in and out of the sliding doors!
Alternatively, just rig up a tarp to do the same thing, or maybe even fit an awning and an add on room!
I would love to get this project done, I am looking into a RHD 4WD Kei Van also, my S/O and I actually wanted a pair of them. Can't wait to see it done.
I want to see the finished van. Update this please!
Vanessa, i like your puppy.. love them.. cute dog.. braaapp..
Owh, you can add the aux LED in front of the bonnet and on roof, will help your driving visibility in either bad weather or road..
What’s awesome 😎 even if y’all are stuck it’s light weight so it’ll probably be easy to push or pull. 😂 get some all terrain tires, I think it’ll go everywhere. I dual sport on a motorcycle, now I’m jelly if y’all’s micro van. 😂👏 🍻
awesome, as usual. but you're still nuts!
LOL
need updates! love it
The Braapski💨💨🤙🏻
Did you get new wheels for the van as well?
Please make a full roomtour, I´d love to see that, it´s an awesome camper!
You didnt see the whole room?
You must have blinked
Wow! So cool to come along with you guys on all your adventures! Love your vibes. Brappppp count: 19
Nice, you actually counted LOL! Thats a lot of braapin!
I like cold, it can be negatives inside, I hate sweating, sadly I live in TX, where it gets blazing hot, im chubbs and bearded, I sleep with window open all winter, I wonder how you could keep cool here.
Absolutely brilliant build chaps, question: did you upgrade the suspension on the van to compensate for the weight of the build materials?
I believe they said last video that they ordered a lift kit, new wheels, get cetera. So I assume some of the weight will be accounted for!
I love the little van but what happen to the Sprinter Van you had?
Love it. But we're your over wheels be better for off road
Love it...
Love what you have done to the little camper. Practical ! What about the tyres ? Something a bit bigger and slightly more suited for off-roading in the future ?
no spare wheel ?
exactly, needs mounted on the front of the roof
Dude... A solar awning. This might be a game changer.
Yes we got one on the way, we will show it in our next video! :D
@@TinyWattsSolar when will it be available for purchase?
enjoying your vids keep them coming, subscribed : )
*My favourite* 🖤😍
Is this US or canada?
Can you please give some details on your Buddy's van with 460w panel. I want to know what van was used and the customization he did inside. I am tempted to take my 2014CRV barely used and put it to use as a van for all of US and canada travel and get some value out ofit while travelling around North America.
Looks very much like it could have been a Vanette (by Nissan).
Hi guys,, is there an update on this build? Thanks
i was wondering the same!
Braaap]
I thought I'm your indian fan
Love your energy 🍾
I really enjoy your Videos! Such a tiny campervanbuild is so refreshing in comparison to the usual campervans on YT.
P.S.: I think you could use a little less background music. 😉
Thank you for watching! We will make sure to keep little background music in the next video :)
Is 4x4😲
very Nice :)
Raining days ...🧐
Elinize sağlık...Türkiyeden selamlar...
Put some led bars
Yup we got some;) will be installing in the next video 👍
what car does Cody have?
And... the fken MPG on this hog- what is it? must be twice a westfalia!? Downsizing with results!
tiny braaap needs a lift kit, flares and big AT tyres
🦁❤️The best things in life are free❤️🦁⚡️✝️⚡️🇺🇸⚡️
This is sooooooo sick
Suuubbbbbbbeeeeddddd
Where is the toilet 😂
bruh wheres the ending story
Im trying to get ahold of you guys want to by your system for van. Tried to contact 3 times now. Just get automated response
Any update on the van?
I donno lol - I would probably just make this like a "weekender" edition with a low mattress and call it a day? lol... I do love everything you're doing, but I CANNOT imagine living in a van this size - but I do want to see watch your van channel "tiny van life" more than anybody else's lol
I guess I would have put the Bed on the floor, and put the kitchen behind the driver's seat? and you can sit on the mattress? I'm just thinking about how the space in the back kinda works, like a full size person tent - when it's just the empty back... but with the bed raised so much in the back, for me that kinda takes away from the huge sense of space...and THAT is what you want in a tiny van - natural light and a sense of immense space... like Canoo's design
LOOK - put the bed on the floor now, then figure everything else out - sorry I'm just being a real critical designer here - you aren't going to want to use this Van the way it is now... What works for a large van, definitely doesn't work for this van.
You should name this project peanut.....
Check out video, " I'm not supposed to talk about this" | David Icke
What is it you keep saying ?
Wondering why the memory foam is at the bottom part and not at the top instead?
Thumb up foe micro campervan.. take a look at ours on our channel as well..
Like when you pass the camera driving etc . Each video you say it a lot 🤔
It's kinda weird they say braaap all the time.. is that an expression?
I don't understand why you guys made it so high for your heads almost touching the roof I just think the design is really poor and way too much weight for that little motor you're going to burn it up I would not go with a lift kit and put bigger tires or anything on it that motor just is not going to hold it
ur mattress is too thick. just buy a japanese shikifuton instead
I want to watch these videos but if you’re going to be saying the same thing over and over I’m out. I know you guys are excited but come on.
