So WHO are WE? We’re Scarlett, Craig and Merlin and along with Helsing, form the PILGRIM PODS!
If you enjoy this video why not check out some of our other content? Delve even deeper into our channel; we thought we’d create a series of vlogs chronicling the conversion of our old panel van HELSING (did you see what we did there?) into a weekend warrioring campervan for ADVENTURING and EXPLORING in the UK.
Each vlog will cover a stage or smaller element of our campervan build, showing our ideas put into action and highlighting our SUCCESSES and FAILURES along the way. With no previous experience this may make for an interesting journey! Our plan is to convert a cheap van on a small budget without cutting corners and at the end, have a campervan to be proud of. We’re hoping you’d like to join us for this journey and that you find our uploads ENTERTAINING and even, INFORMATIVE!

Morning Craig. How are things in your part of the world these days? Hope you hare feeling better. I understand you have been under the weather recently and with change of work. That's enough to contend with. Hope you and your family are well. Looking forward to your next visit here.
Hi mate, things are good and hope they are with you too. Had a lot to keep me occupied recently so haven't been near the van. It will be finished come March though! Just need to get my mojo back to finish off the top cupboards and then on to the kitchenette unit. Other than that it's little odds and ends. Turning out better than I expected! 😄
All looks great 👍

Hey man. Your uploads are always worth the wait. As always excellent work and a real inspiration for me and the wife to get a camper.
That's kind of you to say! Prices seem to be coming down on vans so it might soon be the time to make that purchase! 😉😄🙌

Thanks Kallum. 🙂👍
Great to see you back.
Cheers Andrew and thanks for sticking around! 😊🍻
Fantastic job, the van looks brilliant. Great to have you back 😊
Thanks guys, really appreciate you taking the time to check our videos out. 😊🍻
Good to see you back. Just a tip though, if your rear door carpet goes under the rubber seal, it might start to wick water through into the van when it rains. You could run a sharp knife around the inside of the seal with the door closed and remove the excess to ensure the carpet doesn't interfere with the seal.
Cheers Jake! Thanks for the tip. I've been out in the van to check everything is still watertight and all seems ok but I'll definitely keep your advice in mind should an issue occur. 😊👍
Great to see you back and the work looks great
As always, cheers Kevin. 😊🍻
Great video ☺️
Thanks Kerry! 😊🍻

Lovin the look 👀 it’s something very unique and stylish, you’ve put a lot of thought into the design and pulled off a great result. It’s brilliant when a good plan comes together so well. 😎👍✅✅

😄🙌
Nice job :)
Thanks a lot! 🙂
Where you have your decorative inserts I have used the same method but replaced the ply with protective floor covering plastic panels. Lightweight, easy to cut with scissors a cheap. £5.60 for an 8x4 sheet.non of my carpet is actually stuck to the van
Love it well done x
Thanks guys! 😊👍
Going great guns such simple concepts that work would like to know what you have decided on seating kitchen and if you will include a shower and loo or not in the MWB van os the colour is great 👍
Being built mainly for weekends away it won't have a shower room but the toilet will be housed in a cupboard. Swivel seats will likely have a small table each for eating at and the van will have a kitchenette on one side and a sink unit on the other. 😊
What's the carpet like if you get a shower and doors are open. Does it dry quickly without leaving any stains
Hi Craig out of a matter of interest how many miles as you camper van done
It had about 168k on it when purchased, so just about ran in! 😄
Craig I’ve watched your videos right from the start of your conversion it’s something like to do maybe next year; your doing a great job and are very informative can’t wait to see it finished keep up the good work 👍
@@DavidLewis-ev8sg that's kind of you to say mate and thanks for taking the time to follow along! You'll have to let me know when you get your own van if there's somewhere where we can follow along your own journey. 🍻
Mate …where are you???
I'm still here! Been chipping away at other things but have started back on the van as I want to start using it in February. Top cupboards will be finished tomorrow all being well. Just need to get the paint on Wednesday for them. 😊
Nice van shame about the haircut haha
🤔😮 Thanks Jack! 😂🍻
But seriously, I really enjoy your videos, your van is just amazing.
