Awesome job bro, that caravan look killer polished. I actually nearly added a couple of polished areas on mine as a lot of those old trailer had paint and metal on them, but then changed my mind.
Beautiful customization! Love the airstream look on the camper. They were made with polished aluminum. Yours looks fantastic! The Victor looks sweet too.
The moment you said you were going to polish up the caravan and leave it that way I immediately got the picture of an Airstream in my head and knew this one was going to come out great. I had my doubts about the color you were painting the car but goodness it turned out gorgeous and the chrome on the car really matched so perfectly with the caravan. One of your absolute best, mate (and that’s saying something!!!).
The American polished trailers are called "Airstreams"....and it is interesting to me that this trailer has no tail lights....I would not like to drive behind one. Nice restoration.
L2 BBOC airstream is a brand of trailer.i guess normally you see them in polished aluminum but I’ve seen other trailers made of the same stuff. Where I’m from we either say trailer or camper and I guess it’s just the context that stops any confusion.
Fantastic! Love that polished trailer so much. Reminds me of an Airstream Travel Trailer here in the US. My husband’s grandparents were members of an Airstream club that would travel all over the country for meet ups. It was always neat to see theirs parked by the house when we would visit. Good times! Great job Rob.
Looks great. The Airstream travel trailers were one of the most popular polished trailers here in the United States. They use to hold gatherings every summer in a town closet to where I grew up.
Awesome job on the Vauxhall and Cavalier caravan. I LOVE the grey colour and the chromed out bumpers on the Vauxhall and the other painted details. And the polished caravan OMG it looks fantastic. I think you were aiming for the caravan to look like the Airstream. Or at least it reminds me of the US Airstream caravans or travel trailers as they are called across the the pond
Awesome! Trailer is a general term for us, used to describe anything pulled or towed behind a vehicle. What you've done here has many names. Including, but not limited to, camper, camper-trailer, bumper pull, or fifth wheel. 😉 Love the channel, man! I watch it all the time. Keep 'em coming.
Two beautoful custom restorations!!!!! The polished caravan is brilliant, and reminds me of a US Airstream. And the Victor looks very appropriate in a light gray....I like to see something quite different that the original when it comes to a Matchbox Garage job! Thanks, and well done....as if I didn't expect that!
lol we call them RVs - Recreational vehicles,travel trailer, pull behind/bumper pull,5th Wheel, camper and pop-up depending on the size, type,style, towed or driven and regional dialects. Some times in the case of some iconic brands like Airstream, just by the brand name, like what you were trying to say. Hope this one makes the 2k likes for a give away, cause damn those came out amazing!!! Thanks for sharing Mike from Texas,Take Memories,Leave Footprints
This reminds me of my childhood in Saskatchewan Canada when the Airstream trailers would have their annual get-together. Dozens of polished alumin(i)um trailers travelling in a pack. Those are the North American trailers to which you reref at the end of your video and the first thing that popped into my mind when you poured the castings out of the 304.8 milimetre hot dog jar. A real blast from the past!
That's a very good looking combination, grey on the car fits great with that polished caravan😎 An American bus (Matchbox Greyhound bus) should look good and realistic when polished.
Hi Rob,I'm liking them both,car and caravan,the silver on the car bumpers look so smart it just pops,the caravan,yes I remember the chrome effect ones,to do this one the same is a awesome idea.
HI Rob, Great job on both. In my country we call them travel trailers. I think the Airstream And Avion are two manufacturers that used to offer non-painted, aluminum bodied trailers. They were known for their relative light weight and aerodynamic design. 👍😉
Awesome as always rob, omg you got a fab shine on the caravan, it looks like an old airstream .... love both yours and dannys builds, its nice to see you both doing a joint build again
I do love the polished van gives it a 50's vibe, gives me an idea for maybe leaving one or two of my cars that I have more than one example of, in a similar state. A Jag or Rolls Royce comes to mind for that look, maybe with custom wheels.
very nice customisation. The Airstream were are the polished stainless steel trailer campers. Your Airstream looks nice. Very good polished look. Hopefully you will do a car in the same fashion soon. Nice job.
Great job Rob,love the polished look on the caravan and the Victor came up great as well... Jb Weld is a great product too used it before 2 years and still holding.
Gotta love a shiny camper. I've got an old Airstream Ambassador in my back yard, sadly no longer roadworthy. Makes a more interesting view than an ordinary garden shed, though. :)
Very nice work. The caravan is blinding. The terminology illustrates our differences - even with the same language. It's a caravan here too, but most pop-up tops are called campers. For horses it's a horse float. And the open 6' x 4' with 300mm sides, that you might tow to the hardware store is a trailer. The 6 x 4 is so common because they are exempt from having to pay a vehicle registration fee (MOT, Licence), if the trailer is for private owner use only. In trucking, a dog trailer is usually an axle at each end, and the hitched axle steers. A pig trailer has fixed axles in the middle. Dog trailers are most commonly used as a tipper. Pig trailers mostly curtain-siders for pallet transport.
Nicely done Rob, trailer looks fantastic, the brand was Airstream and they were mainly polished aluminum or stainless steel. In the US, anything we tow is called a trailer.( Not very specific, unless you actually want to be)
All my life, as I can recall, here in the US, trailer is the second name of the, well, trailer. I've always heard them called Camper trailer, Horse trailer, box trailer, moving trailer (like Uhaul), flatbed trailer, stake trailer... and so on. Unless your right next to the particular trailer your talking about, then it's just a trailer. Also, camper trailers are often referred by the kind of trailer it is. It can either be a travel trailer (which connects to the vehicles trailer hitch) or a fifth wheel camper trailer. You'll have to look that one up if you don't know what it is. It's 4:30am and descriptive words are eluding me at the moment. Although, if you put a car on a flatbed trailer, it then becomes a hauler. LoL Great build by the way. Looks awesome.
Awesome job bro, that caravan look killer polished. I actually nearly added a couple of polished areas on mine as a lot of those old trailer had paint and metal on them, but then changed my mind.
Thanks Danny 😎
Amaaaazing job!!! Really retro look
The caravan looks great, and the colour of the car is spot on. Another fantastic job.

Sophisticated color choice on the car. Really like the polished travel trailer.
Fantastic result! What a pair of beautiful and classic Matchbox pieces, great selection and, as always, an awesome job. Congratulations, Rob 👍🙋
Looks beautiful that polished metal camper.
Lovely set. Cool to see a polished casting. Ahh the good old days of driving down the PCH, behind a shiny Airstream, looking at my reflection.
The trailer is fantastic! Just like an Airstream. The fix on the trailer worked out very well.
Bro, the Airstream Camper looks amazing!!! Never thought a Matchbox would look so sick!! Amazing job!! 🥂🥂🥂
Classic old castings, beautifully done over!
Cheers

Man i like these more than real car restorations

Fantastic job I love that you left the Travel Trailer polished Metal. The Airstream Trailers were polished here

Awesome! The brand of "trailer" / "caravan" in the USA that are made with the polished look are called Airstream. Nice work!
Might be my favorite one of your restorations.
what a cool set. the caravan looks great polished and unpainted
Beautiful Vauxhall! Love the bare-metal caravan
Great work on both!!! Here in the States we call them camper trailers and the ones with no paint are called Airstream and Avion Campers
Very Nice! UK Caravan with an USA Airstream finish! 👍👍👍👍
That polishing job is superb. I like the car as well.
My favourite restore so far 🙂👍
Very nicely done. The polished caravan here is called Airstream. And you made those look great.
Robs taking a road trip on Route 66. Saw Danny's car and caravan and he's going on his summer holidays😁.👍
Polishing the caravan took courage. Any ewok would be thrilled to adventure in it.
Greetings from Canada … enjoy your videos. The caravan (trailer) that you mentioned is called an AIRSTREAM … polished aluminum body panels.
That caravan is wicked awesome in polished metal.
Incredible job! Love what you did with the camper.
that's an awesome restoration! here in the states they were called air stream campers
I love the polished caravan.
I love the caravan ... I have a Roller that I polished up and clear coated ... Great finish on both ..
This came out awesome. I love the fix to the trailer hitch.
Nice work. Like the polished camper👍👍👍
I absolutely love this restoration /+/ custom attempt. Perfect in every way. Well done Rob.

I had to come back to this one Rob. One of my Favorites !!
Muy buenos trabajos...sobre todo la casilla rodante!!!
Love these old campers.
I love this combination and your finish choices!
Trailer looks sharp! Looks like an Airstream....I think that is what you were thinking of.
Wow . Awesome look. Perfect colour for the old car and the camper looks great in chrome look . Well done:-).
Looks awesome! I really like how you took care of this one. It's a really clean restoration and customization job.
Thanks Rob cute little combo job
Love the polished trailer and works good with cars color.
That's a very good looking combination, grey on the car fits great with that polished caravan😎
An American bus (Matchbox Greyhound bus) should look good and realistic when polished.
You did a great on the car and the caravan. I like the polished look on the caravan.
Hi Rob,I'm liking them both,car and caravan,the silver on the car bumpers look so smart it just pops,the caravan,yes I remember the chrome effect ones,to do this one the same is a awesome idea.
Awesome job Danny. I really like the polished trailer/camper/caravan. Keep up the excellent work.
Another great job Rob. And the polished caravans in America are made by a company called airstream
In some parts it's called a camper trailer. Looks great 👍
Outstanding work Rob! What a triumph
Very nice I’m really digging the polished camper and the car turned out awesome as well. 👍👍😊
HI Rob, Great job on both. In my country we call them travel trailers. I think the Airstream And Avion are two manufacturers that used to offer non-painted, aluminum bodied trailers. They were known for their relative light weight and aerodynamic design. 👍😉
Excellent job on both the car and caravan.
Great job with the car but the caravan looks awesome hard to get a mirror finish without any marks on it well done.
Great job and here in the United States we call the stainless steel trailers Airstream. One of my favorite mobile trailers. 👍👍👍👍
Mate, that's the first video of yours I've watched. Great work and imagination. Spot on!
Nice chrome trailer, and the car is nice too. 🤩
Awesome as always rob, omg you got a fab shine on the caravan, it looks like an old airstream .... love both yours and dannys builds, its nice to see you both doing a joint build again
Great vintage look
I do love the polished van gives it a 50's vibe, gives me an idea for maybe leaving one or two of my cars that I have more than one example of, in a similar state. A Jag or Rolls Royce comes to mind for that look, maybe with custom wheels.
Looks very good in bare metal,and the car color is nice too !
very nice customisation. The Airstream were are the polished stainless steel trailer campers. Your Airstream looks nice. Very good polished look. Hopefully you will do a car in the same fashion soon. Nice job.
What a great choice of color (and chrome). Really nice restoration.

This set impressed me. Beautiful older models that I would like in my collection. Rob deserves 20,000 likes. What are you waiting for guys???
Nicely done Rob, trailer looks fantastic, the brand was Airstream and they were mainly polished aluminum or stainless steel. In the US, anything we tow is called a trailer.( Not very specific, unless you actually want to be)

Brilliant Rob. Really impressed with the caravan. Although not a "streamline" looks fantastic...
The caravan looks amazing, but the finish and details on the car really set it off! A brilliant combination! Great job!
Loving the customs. Excellent
