CHAOS with Chuck - What a work day REALLY looks like
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- We both convert buses, do custom fabrication, install solar... and when we team up, chaos ensues.
Theres no telling where any one day will go... but its generally pretty comical.
Join us as we navigate the world of having the "maker's bug", and a slight addiction to abstract vehicles...

The two of you should start an RV business, you 'all know it so well. Use the platform to find out what people want and you got the skills.
I did so many hit and miss trips like this. The banter is what makes it interesting. I would be fuming. Both of you are just nice people that make the best of everything.
So many… always heart breaking.. thank you! Filming was fun, also gave a purpose beyond coming home with the van… so it helped ease the gut punch!
Morale was a problem 😂 thanks for the video it was fun to watch
Hahaha it really was 😂😂
Building my first bus- so no experience with sealant but I’m digging goop marine caulk. Paintable and uv resistant. Great video highlighting the addictive nature of bus building! But there are a lot of worse things to be into. For example gambling. You gotta know when to hold em know when to fold em. Glad it’s brought the 2 of you together.
So addictive! Building just one is harder than eating just one pringle.. 😂
PNW marine industry lives on Sikaflex 291 for absolutely everything and it's been amazing on our skoolie as well. May be worth looking into.
You two ! :)
Bump, bump 🎶 🎉👏👏 Love your hard working spirit, and Kiara too of course! Looking forward to seeing what's next beautiful babes! 💞
Awe shucks, thank you! Cant wait to edit the next video!

I use to do commercial security systems 16hr days on ladders in attics id rather build Rigs on my time and you guys are building people future dreams and memories.
2:02 dicor non sag lap sealant works great for sealing. Chuck introduced me to they're line of products. I love it💯✌️
8:19. what a trooper..i packed up the mrs for a run to Boise to look at a dirt bike we made it home the next day driving both ways with the bike;;;nice job chuck...
Hes is a trooper… so grateful for his willingness to put up with my shenanigans 🙂
Like driving to see the Grateful Dead, this might be a roadtrip you try to remember ...
good looking cabin,,👍
Dicor leveling and non leveling sealants (depending on your application need). Been using on my motorhome for years and it's the best.
Fun Video!! I look forward to seeing what else you two have in the works.
With regards to sealant; I've been running a marine repair business for coming up on 12 years now, and one of my most used sealants is 3M 4000 UV. I've used it on all kinds of boat hardware, above and below the waterline. The key with all sealant is to bed the entire surface area of the part, paying special attention to the fasteners. In my opinion, a bead of caulk around the outside edge is worthless. Regardless, the other key to making a lasting seal is cleaning. I prep both surfaces to be sealed like I would do paint prep. Wipe everything down with the strongest solvent that you can without damaging the substrates. Then lightly abrade the surfaces and wipe them down again. Make sure they are completely, and I do mean COMPLETELY, free of any contaminants. And then hit it with solvent one more time just to be sure 😉. Ensure the solvent is completely evaporated before applying sealant. I have used this method on underwater Thru-Hull fittings, hatches, portlight trim rings, deck cleats, etc. I've seen some of these jobs again 10 years later and still zero leaks, and I expect they'll go for many more years. It's a lot of extra work, but it's worth it if you want leak-free connections.
Keep the videos coming! Love you guys😘
The running out of gas thing is a problem on VW Westy's. Lol
We all have to do it at least once every 10 years!
My first bus related purchase yesterday was that same tiny little welder lol. Can't use stick and GMAW is too expensive to justify purchasing a whole unit to raise one roof and weld a few thin odds and ends.
Cool Rig!
This was a fun show to watch. Thanks for taking us along.
Use marine grade polyurethane sealer. UV resistant, for use in salt water above or below water line, rated as a 50 year duration. 30% flexible yet very strong, and bonds to most any type of material.
50 years sounds too good to be true.. ill have to give it a try!
What a day... sounds like how my days go sometimes !! I am curious about the updates you mentioned at the end of the video.
Ill edit as quick as i can!
Oh man, it was probably just a dirty injector! 😊
Buy it! Buy it! Buy it. lmao
he should of called ya and said the motor was toast..thats a rod knock sound to me along with rings and valve job. ..so ya wasted trip..with no coffee..lol
So far the mechanic says it was just algae in the fuel system… they are currently cleaning the injectors… 🤔
@@WolfDogBuses wow ok hope that works.and ya get it..i guess ya could trailer it home if you still want it..thks for sharing...
@@moustachemike7128 yeah itll be interesting… so far im not too confident
"We just need to do the same thing harder." 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"with no RIGard"
Ran out of gas hahahaha. Seriously that really sucks at 1.30am though. What a great episode!!!
Are your twin busses getting built together???
Love it!
How's that Chuck for stepping up ~!
I really like the butyl caulk for sealing. It’s a roofing and gutter sealant. Flexible and sticks great. Like butyl tape.
man, Chuck is TOOO down!
Just file it in the big brown file that says S#$! Happens and go on. Lol
File it, and get back on the marketplace scroll lol
just buy a pre 2010 cab over truck. they are so cheap since you cant reg them as commercial in CA any more and build it out
Broken valve spring or bent push rod(if it has push rods). That's my guess. I don't think a burnt valve is going to make that noise.
And possible head gasket leak..cheers
Sikaflex
I watch both of you, love the content! But, are ya'll a couple now? Asking for a friend, lol.
Didn’t the seller tell you the engine was funky before you drove there?
5200 marine caulk
I WANT TO BUY ONE OF YOUR BUSES! Preferably one that is roomy enough for 3 adults, 1 large dog and 2 cats to live in comfortably. At the moment I am homeless so anything that will hold all of my family would be great. How can I reach either you Brianna or you Chuck?
I’m interested in one of the buses you have for sale
Did you sell the pink bus 😅
No! I cant let go of it, i got too attached 😂🥹
I’m looking for a bus but I don’t want to pay a lot neither
Arent we all..
Have either of you ever used Sikaflex before? I’m sure Chuck has used it before.
Absolutely, love that stuff for between seams.. not so fond of the uv rated stuff, ive seen it shrink and detach when used on a roof..
@@WolfDogBuses …. Oh wow that’s not so good. I’ve seen some people use it on their sailboats .
Interested in one of the sweet Unicorns any of the three available ? And how much? And I'm interested in a solar upgrade on the Sunrader and some modifications ? Chuck knows this rig like the back of his hand. I watched tonight’s live with Chuck and your new post as well, bees bees bees 👍 I would like to talk about purchasing the 7 window U factor bus 🚌 How do you want to go forward on this. I will text Chuck as well 💯👍❤️
Those three and a fourth will be available soon! We are finishing the mechanic work and gutting of the first one for sale.. looking like itll be the collins.
Ill tell him to reach out to you, assuming you are the one with his very missed sunrader..
Thanks for your response, I will stay in the loop and when I'm ready let you know. I think I have never missed not even one of Chuck's videos, good content, very talented. The Sunrader another Sweet Unicorn 👍✌️♥️
I edited original response, I really like the 7 window U factor 🚌
sikaflex?
Sellers suck! What huge billowing white cloud of smoke, what knocking sound...that's all normal....what? Oh, that's normal.
Is Kiara a German shepherd wolf mix?
Malamute mix :)
@@WolfDogBuses Malamute wolf mix! Beautiful mix! :)
Chuck is 100% without a doubt a bad influence. I to have 8, oh wait, 9, gotta count my daily driver, and 12 if we count trailers. 5 being busses and the last 2 I bought because Chuck SAID !!! He said, don't build a bus you don't want. Just WAIT, til you find what you want. Well, I already had 3 busses, then I took his advice and decided to keep an eye open. For a mid size bus with a side handicap door that I wanted instead of a long whole ass straight bus with no lift door. Then I found an auction with 2 mid size buses with handicap lift doors. So I bid on it, didn't meet reserve. Oh good, so here's the 2nd one it's newer with air ride, taller ceiling Handy Bus with no wheel wells. Gotta bid that one. Damn, didn't meet the reserve on that one either. They were said to be NON RUNNING busses so I wouldn't bid to much. Well then 4 days later when the online auctions end, the reserves were lifted and I ended up winning both of them with my low low bids. Then I got up there to tell them, heyyy, I don't want both of these and 2 tow bills, and you guys lifted the reserves so that's just not right. Then before I got to spit that out, they said, Ohh so you're the lucky guy that stole the 2 handicap busses. I said, LUCKY? For 2 busses that don't run?!?!? I'm Lucky??? Well yeah, they run, we jumped them and got them started, they'll need batteries but they run and drive. So yeah, I drove them both to my shop 30 miles away. Damn you Chuck !!! I don't think I can tell you what I paid for them. You wouldn't beleive me. But yeah, 5 busses, 2 Squarebody trucks, a 2x4 and a 4x4, a C50 dumptruck, my daily driver rice burner, then a water tote trailer, a single axle utilty dump trailer, and a 16 foot tandem axle trailer. And I want more toys.
Lol this comment gets better and better… i read it aloud to chuck 😂
@@WolfDogBuses hahaha, yeah Chuck Said !!! So then I had to buy some off grid property to park all this $h#%. It's only 3.79 acres, but it's big enough. But that was my bus building money.
@@NomadicHooker oh man, and that property will also take your bus building time! Thats where im at 😂
Damn, I have Shelter auto insurance. It automatically included Road America roadside service. Gas would have been FREE for me. I even have tripe A cuz I"m a tow operator and I know better. $89 a year and includes up to 4 services a year with a tow up to 100 miles. The peace of mind is worth it. Be sure to have a roadside service. For busses, Coachnet does recognize busses as an RV, whre Triple A Does NOT. I THINK, won't swear to it, but I THINK Good Sam Club also recognizes busses as RV so long as it has an RV license plate. Do have a roadside service everyone. Peace of mind is worth it. If you had my #, I could have gotten you fixed up for FREE. I'm a tow bro, it's nationwide brohood, I'da used my Triple A card, then when I got the text to which service got the call, I'd call them up and tell them who I am, and what the deal is, and they'd have hooked you up.
Oh we both have road side.. but neither chucks or my AAA responded in a reasonable amount of time… chucks roadside called back at 630am…. 5 hrs after the request… living in a remote area has its drawbacks..
@@WolfDogBuses That sucks. Not even right. Why have it? But being a tow operator, I've gotten cash calls where AAA didn't show up for over 12 hours, no kidding, he called for a tow at 4:30pm. By 4:30am, PD pulled up to put a 24hr move it sticker on it, and called us to come help this old guy at 4 friggin 30am, and a Triple A provider was literally 3 blocks from this guy and this is in OKC, OK, not rural at all. Not cool.
