- Camper conversion of VW Bug in a Tiny camper/rv in a few easy spteps with pretty much everything used from scratch.
I've got those plywood from a furniture factory which I've cuted in order to fit the car design, and give me plenty of space on the top of the board, and also a lot of room under it to store utensils.
The bed frame is screwed to the thread where originally is attached the security belt of the backseat, it's basically two steel tubes that fit together and also fit with the car design, they are lightweight and strong enough to held everything in place. Over the frame there are light thin perforated plywood plates and a foam cutted to fit the room.

I did this in 1986 with my 66 beetle. The layout is almost identical though your construction is better. My guitar case fit perfectly under the bed. I had a two burner Coleman stove behind the driver seat and a small sink made from a large funnel that drained through the floor. This assisted a lot with cooking when you didn’t want to open the doors or windows in bad weather. I had storage shelves underneath the rear window and curtains all the way around. I lived this way for many months and never paid rent again. When you take those extra seats out there is a remarkable amount of room in the original Volkswagen beetle. On one evening while camping out with the forestry crew I ended up with five people in the car! It started when someone came to see why I wasn’t at the campfire. The weather was lousy. Instead of talking through the open window I said come in sit in the driver seat. Pretty soon another person came to check where the first person had disappeared to. This was repeated until four were sitting cross-legged on the bed facing the driver side and one person was in the driver seat. I was cooking snacks and making hot drinks for everyone. Some Cajun radio station playing on the old am radio… Compared to living out in the elements it was pure luxury! Everyone on the crew started trying to figure out how to live in their cars after that. The beetle had amazing off-road capabilities. Easily equal to and sometimes exceeding the abilities of large four-wheel-drive pick up trucks. It was a very comfortable and efficient way to live. I loved it. Sometimes when I woke up in the morning and there was fog and mist all over the windows from the night condensation I would think it was a gray cloudy day. After making breakfast and getting dressed I would open the door and be dazzled by the bright sunshine and beautiful blue sky! I would’ve gotten up earlier if I had known it was so nice!😅. Later I got a 67 square back and did the same type of interior conversion. The extra space of the hatchback meant that two people could sleep comfortably, one in the standard bed next to the driver seat and another behind the driver seat slightly elevated. It made it much easier to live and travel with my canine companion though the second bed was actually long enough for a human. Eventually I was able to acquire a Volkswagen camper bus but after a couple of months I got rid of it and went back to the squareback because it was too big! I hated that you had to get out of bed to change the radio station or make breakfast. It sounds crazy but there was just too much room. It took twice as long to clean the house😅
I agree whit you! Is too big,too much to Clean!We See you dont need much for coocking,dishes,and Others!I Love IT!All your Videos it makes my day Happy!
One pleasure in life in to share adventures on UA-cam, prepare a coffe and read something like this. Your comment made my day, thank you for share this golden years feeling!🧡
@@RodrigoKaspary Fantastic! I’m so glad you saw my comment. I have finally found my twin freak of the world! Give me an email address and I will send you some photographs. I was shooting a lot of Kodachrome slides back then.
Eu ja fiz isto haha mas nao de forma tão profissional quanto vc faz.
I really appreciate this project, but like Rodrigo made, he has a motorcycle and a mountain bike in a little motorhome haha that was great, maybe my project I gonna use a station wagon like a Toyota Corolla SW. Let's try .
Legal!!!
Já tinha procurado esse vídeo e agora saiu!!
Matou minha curiosidade!!
Muito bom!👍🏼👍🏼
Loved the conversation !
Simple and efficient 🤜🤛
Glad you liked it!
Great work!!! I love your beautiful VW Yellow Beetle. Keep up the good work. 👍
Goodbye
:(
Como vc lida com os mosquitos? Dorme com tudo fechado ou utiliza algum mosquiteiro? Muito legal a simplicidade das adaptações, parabéns!
Isso é facil compra uma lampada anti-mosquito no aliexpress
Cê è fodaaaaa
Projetinho clean, o suficiente pra mta diversão. 🚕 ⛺️ 🖤
Im Citroën 2CV bin ich auch so gefahren. Geile Zeit
Esse armário atrás do banco do motorista, vindo da parte traseira, numa colisão vai direto no meio da coluna do condutor, e um belo projeto, porém bem perigoso
Já tinha visto um projeto semelhante para um Ford Ka da 1a. Geração. Projeto fica ainda mais fácil implementar em um fusca porque o próprio Fusca é um projeto de carro muito simples de fazer manutenção, isto é, montar e ser desmontado.
Você acredita Rodrigo que eu estava com essa pergunta na cabeça, como você fez parte da mesa e cama no fusca, rs
Você nao era o único :D Abraço!
A mão de fazer o mesmo no meu Fusca chega a tremer!!!🤣🤣🤣
Fantástico. Funcional e simples.
Parabéns.
The secret was reveal... awesome Rodrigo
😊
Bom dia Rodrigo, que video satisfatório, muito obrigado pela dica vou replicar no meu fusca 69 para algumas aventuras também, estou pensando em comprar uma kombi para montar um motorhome rustico e simples diy, você acha que as modernas com motor refrigerado a água atendem melhor as necessidades ou as a ar são mais competentes off road. Novamente agradeço pelo conteúdo, abraço
uma kombi é uma tristeza no offroad pesado. Barro, neve e lugares inclinados. Se você gosta de ficar longe do asfalto como eu, vai de fusca que é mais eficiente hehehe, eu tenho os dois e essa é minha dica
@@RodrigoKasparyValeu meu amigo, aguardando as próximas aventuras, aqui perto de onde moro tem um lugar chamado canions Paulista se passar pelo sudeste de SP vale a pena conhecer.
Wow this car is very modular
VOCÊ é um gênio...amei a dica ASSIM COMO AMO o FUSCA.
Muito obrigado meu amigo! Fusca é muita história :D
Omg, I waited so much for this video! Thank you Rodrigo! 😊
😊
Me too ! Awesome !
Muito Bom Amigo !!!! Ganhou um Inscrito...
Fantástico! Os materiais foram reaproveitados?
As i was expecting to uncover your car secrets.
Nice upload mate 👍
Glad you enjoyed, cheers!
Muito bem pensado.
Sensacional!
Parabéns!

Sou da Foco Radical tbm, massa demais seus videos bro!
Kkkk. Bom. Mt bom mesmo. E econômico!
Cool, but with 10 grand you can do wayyy more with something like a Jeep....and offroad too...
hello, pretty soon i will be acquiring a 72 super, was wondering how you got the rubber mats for this car? i perfer rubber mats to frabic ones because they are easier to clean but I haven't been able to find any for the classic beetles.
Ok so $10? $1,000? $10,000? Yard sale? 🤔 mike has many questions
Если нравится путешествие, тебя ничего не остановит!
You should have run a few baby wipes around the interior. Thing looks dirty.
Ideia genial esse vídeo parabéns esse carinho😄😁🚕
Brooo.you are geneuis. You are coming 2070.. 👍👍👍👍
Good morning, afternoon or evening, how did you do those boards? How much does it cost? To what measures? And how much does these iron parts and their corresponding size cost?

Oleeeee Rodrigo, ¡¡¡qué buena cueva¡¡¡. Gracias por compartir. Me ha orientado un montón para hacer algún "brico" en mi coche. Los agujeros de las tablas, me imagino que es para aliviar peso y ventilar colchón, ¿verdad? Un saludo y enhorabuena, pues ya me hago una idea de como grabas los videos y el punto de vista
Gracias, sin los agujeros el conchón va a transpirar!
@@RodrigoKaspary Gracias Rodrigo. Y lo dicho, anda que no tiene solera la botella abollada, jajaja

Y lo mejor es que puedes cagar dentro, como es una mierda... no se nota!
Clickbait , furadeira é mais caro que 50 conto
Thank you. This is a very helpful video!
Com dez reais nao compra nem essas chapas, dira os metais, para essa cama, que vc chama motorhome.
Poderia dizer as medidas da estruturas de metalon? Grande abraço.
Simples e magnífico !!!!!!
Liberdade é que se chama!
Isso mesmo :D
Bien exho, corto y consizo jajaja al grano
how to survive while camping in a dangerous place with wild animals, try to teach them how
hahahahhahaha in the future! Stay tuned!
Bom dia muito obrigado pelo vídeo
10000달러에 차량가격도 포함되는것이지요?
I still don’t know how you manage to sit in the back corner when you cook haha. Great videos though 👍
Me neither :P
Be careful of Allah Akbar guys
Top boa tarde amigoii😍😍😍😍😍😍😘🤗🤩😏
Very Good!... 105 🐄🦉🏴☠
A Haa ! That's how it's done !

Bem criativo, parabéns!
você é brasileiro man?
Very clever 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Vou fazer no meu f pangare. Amem
Li na descrição, que aparafusaste a rosca... É sempre melhor do quê QUEIMAR a rosca... Kkkkkkkk.
Belo trabalho.
Oh now I see what you did. I kept my seats in and made it still work. Then again I am 5"2 and so
was able to set it up so it was fine for me. I still slept and cooked etc. It was a trip.
it's the perfect car, goes anywhere like a 4wd, and doesn't has that many parts to breakdown lol
@@RodrigoKaspary I enjoyed mine when I had it. Now I am in a Prius which I am enjoying quite well. Love to see you are rocking your VW
Hey mate, great work! What is the total length of your bed?
Hello!! 1,90m
Verry nice my Friend;
How the hell did you spend ten thousand bucks on that?
only ten
Gambiarra é Mato 😁😁
Rodrigo, particularmente, não gostei. O cara do Maranhão, transformou e o banco dianteiro ficou. Repare:ua-cam.com/video/RYR6lhz735o/v-deo.html
Novo amanhã.
Snel en Simpel even een 45 jaar oude VW Kever ombouwen naar mini camper !!!!!!!!!
Echt geweldig en waarschijnlijk 10x makkelijker dan een moderne auto ombouwen naar mini camper ???
Mijn felicitatie's met de ombouw,krijg bijna zin om m'n Smart om te bouwen.
Nadeel is dat de winter hier in aantocht is,dus het is veel te koud om nu te gaan kamperen in een kleine auto.
En dan ook nog zonder kachel !!!
Mano mais vc viaja e isso
素晴らしいです‼️
😄😄😄😄😁😁😁
Hayranlık ile takip ediyoruz, sizi 💯💯
that back play with the subwoofer or whatever that thing is I would probably take that out.
Wow
Isso não é um motorhome.... é um Fusca com cama.....
Obrigado por esclarecer amigo! Quase impossível de perceber👏
wowo
Carai vc é foda
Okay. I am impressed. Simple and not permanent. I may borrow this design.
Это круто!👍Жаль только для одного. Если бы туда ещё жену и девятилетнего сына вместить)))))))
Verry Nice Love your design , I might do the same for Trips verry cool thank you for the Idears
Super Beetle
Вождение такого транспортного средства с модернизацией разрешено на дорогах общего пользования?
Show!
awesome
I feel like there are better ways to do this but saving it for reference for sure. About how long in length is the sleeping area?
Q top Gaspary parabéns video muito legal
Fuscasa
PQP eu tava quase te mandando uma DM pedindo esse vídeo kkkk VALEU
Super. Pozdrowienia z Florydy.,
Ótimo vídeo! E quanto custa um fusca no Br? Moro na Europa e no Uk tem nego comprando £25K! Tá mais caro que um Porsche Panamera usado kkkk por que é de colecionador
A internet na "europa" nao te permite acessar olx ou mercado livre para ver o preco dum fusca no brasil, pinoquio? Kkk
Cool.. great..
Thank you! Cheers!
Top amigo,sempre vejo e curto seus vídeos!!
