LORETTA! Hey my friend…What a happy surprise to find you on here! I built out a tiny shuttle bus too! It would be fun to see you on the road one day! I love your build ✌🏼🚐✨✨ (Yoga Nidra Andrea 😊… aka a.mstree)
What a cozy and inviting space! I love the colorful blankets. Bravo Loretta, for making your own cabinets despite a carpenter husband. I admire that! This is an easy van to drive, park, and great mpg. Smart build. Thanks for the tour, Patrick and Loretta!
I've been following Loretta's channel for a few months and really enjoy her travels. Not flashy, not boring. And her build is exactly what I aspire to. Thanks, Patrick, for showing what a solo woman can achieve!
I really enjoy this self builds. So many great ideas. I really thought the flip up in front of sink was a great idea for a table and smart use of space. Really cozy van for travel!
This brings back memories! We had this exact van when our kids were young - Westfalia with the weekender package - even the same color! Kids slept up top and we had the bed in the back. Wish I still had it; would consider a conversion like you did.
Nice!!! I had a Eurovan ‘02 took it across the United States from California to North Carolina and back no problems and then after that, everything started breaking down. And then parts are NLA sold that thing, but it was fun. Too bad it kept breaking down..
Very nice! Pretty, functional, cozy, just a great rig! I'm just not a sink person, but big deal,right? I love it! And 75 up hill? I'm beyond impressed! I would love to have a Wesfallia!
Patrick you are becoming my favorite UA-cam creator. My favorite is George and he hasn't posted in awhile. I enjoy all the van tours. This VW is one of my favorite vans. They can be found for sale on a used car website with the app. I've seen all versions. The VW GLS is the basic model. Most have higher mileage and high price. I consider the price too high for what it is.
Awesome video. I have a 92 VW Eurovan camper. My problem is the strength to push up the pop top. Did you get some struts to help with the lift? If so, could you kindly let us know which ones they are. Also, is it easy to pull down as well? Happy travels to you!
The Elephant in the Room: what about the engine? That is 23 years old w how many miles? These usually have 200K on them. I always had bad luck w VW van engines (rear engine). The interior is great, but the van still needs to go down the road.....
I got curious and went through the channel, Patrick has been making videos for 10 years, Congrats Patrick!! This was the first video: ua-cam.com/video/DF7iEd1YK50/v-deo.html&ab_channel=NewJerseyOutdoorAdventures
Enjoyed the Volkswagen van tour! She's set up to go most anywhere at any time (considering she confers with her husband, of course). I much prefer to watch only van tours and not subscribe to the youTube channel. It always just becomes about dubbing in random music or personal playlists for the majority of the video. Just give me a peaceful walk in nature just hearing leaves rustling in the wind without cue the orchestra trees, and I'm in for the duration👍. But with musical intros, I know what I'm in for, and I'm out👉.
We had a Eurovan camper with pop-top. Sometimes I slept up there since the bed downstairs was a bit narrow for my husband and I, but having that open space just makes the whole camper feel so good (plus husband is tall and needed it. Even if not sleeping up there, throwing items up there, keeps a small camper clutter free
Thanks Patrick 🙏for sharing my pride and joy with the world!
You did a fantastic job, I'm so glad I could share it! 😄
I love this!
@@ClassySassyManes thanks
Great van!! And what a blessing you and ur husband respect both your needs to either travel or stay on the home front. Safe travels!

I appreciate that! We’re really happy with how it turned out!

I'm glad you enjoy the channel!
Amazing build! Having the pop-top is definitely a game-changer. Wonderful!
It's so much nicer than a tent! 😄
Thanks!
I love the organization of your vehicle, and then you popped that roof up, and i went crazy 🤩😍🤪. I just love it .
Ha, that was the drama Patrick and I were going for! Thanks!
I really enjoy this self builds. So many great ideas. I really thought the flip up in front of sink was a great idea for a table and smart use of space. Really cozy van for travel!
I agree, it's a great use of space!
@@lizzym9029 thanks!
Love it. It shows me I can get going without spending a whole fortune. Beautiful. Enjoy.
It doesn’t have to be expensive!
What a great job of thinking ahead and building to fit her needs. 👏 👏 👏
Thanks so much, Linda!

Thanks for watching!
I'm buying a minivan soon and am looking to do the passenger seat swivel. Is there some way to find out what aftermarket swivel she used?
Interesting, a Volkswagen
Yes indeed
Where did you get the bracket's for the pop up tables
Awesome video. I have a 92 VW Eurovan camper. My problem is the strength to push up the pop top. Did you get some struts to help with the lift? If so, could you kindly let us know which ones they are. Also, is it easy to pull down as well? Happy travels to you!
It does take a little bit of a push/strength to get it up and down! Go Westy might have something that could help.
@@LoPieintheWildthx so much for replying. 😊
nice
Thanks
How easy is that vehicle to drive? I like them but the VW often had huge steering wheels and uncomfortable seats.

What happened to the husband?
@@trumpsmum9210 he’s alive and well 🥰
What waste of a pop-top if it’s not used.
If your short it don't matter as much
It sure is used for standing height
