That's my favourite model of all Caddy's. I have the 2007 2k chassis, MK3, 1.9TDI (BLS). It's right in the middle of old technology and new technology with no DPF. I did a cat, muffler and resonator delete, and EGR off. "Choo". I love mine but want the older shape with a 1.9 or 2.5 TDI swap.
I like it. The challenge, to realize it, as cheap as possible. Or if needed, because of small budget. My car looks also so ugly. Bought it last week. But it runs well, and all four tyres are well. My isolation wool, some plywood, and a green carpet for the floor - I got it for free. I got also a two flame camping gas stove for free. with gas tube, little gas bottles, etc. Some parts I bought it in the past. So i get the inspirations, how to do it cheap, with your videos. - Thanks. Greetings from sw-germany (middle europe.)
Danke! Yeah you definitely can do so much for free, what car have you got? I’m not sure if you have Freecycle over there but maybe an equivalent. I always go through it to see what people are getting rid of, you can get the odd pack of tiles and flooring there and other stuff
@@CaddyConversion I have some internet pages, for offering and getting goods for free, even in my area or county. But my car is not registrated, so I cannot drive it, to pick it up the free goods. I have no number plates, and no registration stickers for it.
Such a weirdly shaped little retro European delivery van look....but it has an appeal to it similar to the 2020 - 2013 Ford Transit Conect for the same reason.....CUTE 😍 😊.
Yeah I think they probably made it a van as an afterthought - the later caddy’s are much more van shaped rather than someone’s just reversed their car into a box and driven off with it jammed on 😂
Thanks, it was off ebay, just a small 29cm (i think) bowl sink and a 12v tap and pump kit. Shouldn’t be too hard to find on ebay search but let me know if not I’ll have a hunt
Dude! You rock! This is the best camper van conversion I've watched! I'm super impressed with your knowledge and creativity! Thanks for sharing! Do you surf?
Well nowhere really, I finished it just in time for the next lockdown!! Went camping in it one weekend down to the coast and that was it! Been parked up on my drive since. Is yours a mk2 caddy or newer shape?
@@CaddyConversion Well, the lockdown sucks! Wanna start building but no hardware store is open. Mine is a 9k Caddy, as I read it on Wikipedia it is derived of the Seat Ibiza mk2 and VW Polo mk3 platform. So should be basically the same model as yours.
Cool!! Let me know how you get on with the build! Yeah you can’t get much materials at the moment and then they have doubled or tripled the costs, but stick some ads on facebook ask people for old wooden furniture, futons, beds, cupboards they don’t want, leftover packs of flooring and tiles etc, even old doors. You’ll be surprised what you can get for free.
Thanks mate, it is RAL6003 olive Matt from a tin. Search eBay, they do other military colours too. I used land rover camouflage grey on the Vauxhall arena you can see on my other videos too, I actually prefer that to the green.
If you’re not already a member joint rat bastard crew on Facebook all kinds of cars etc from shiney to rat to hot rod to custom bikes everything’s welcome
Thanks, it has a fold down pair of legs on it, you can see it in one of the videos where I build it in more detail and I’ll put up a caddy camper tour video this week where you can see it too.
Hi - sorry to hear that. I don’t think i can help you unfortunately, best thing is to try some piston head or vw forums and ask in there where people can share photographs with you and hopefully that will help.
Thanks mate, the only costs were the electrics , coffee sacks , adhesive, varnish and sink really, oh and also the cushions I’ve bought too but I was given a kitchen work top and a futon and a pack of flooring, so all of that stuff was free. Also pallet wood from the back of a wholesaler they give them away if you ask. Probably about £300 or so spend I think maybe a bit more
Great build man love it! Did you use the military paint primer as well before the top coat or just prepare it well and go straight on? Nice colour as well👍
Ha no I painted it blue and tried the rat look but it went a bit tits up so just chucked the army paint over it, it literally sticks to anything that stuff it’s really good, it’s got a rough land rover finish on it now, if it was a higher end van I wouldn’t dream of doing anything like what I did with this though!!
@@CaddyConversion ah okay, did it cover that well with just 1 coat of the green? I’ve got a mk2 caddy and just fed up of rust coming back on rear arches I’m tempted on giving this paint a go. Being a decorator by trade I’m quite confident with the roller😅
Yeah I did two coats , it’s apparently got rust inhibitors in the paint too, but I just thought if I ever need to I’ll just Chuck more paint on it, I would buy some of it off eBay and paint some old scrap metal first and see what you make of it, I also used the same stuff but grey camo on my Vauxhall arena which the video is on my page, that was two coats but really happy with how that came out
this video was genius, one of the few time lapses that doesnt suck ass, this madman painted the whole car with a roll
😂

Oh no it’s going then
@@CaddyConversion i cant justify two cars and two bikes,
Let’s paint the Saab soon then
@@CaddyConversion sounds good to me,
Shes gone... Tissue time..
Really good that fair play but there did you get the sink and pump ect from I am doing a MK2 caddy van camper at the moment my self
Thanks, it was off ebay, just a small 29cm (i think) bowl sink and a 12v tap and pump kit. Shouldn’t be too hard to find on ebay search but let me know if not I’ll have a hunt

@@CaddyConversion nice one okay mate thank you keep up the good work and video's
@@CaddyConversion thank you for that i see now I will get them ordered for my van cheer's
fantastic
Dude! You rock! This is the best camper van conversion I've watched! I'm super impressed with your knowledge and creativity! Thanks for sharing! Do you surf?
Cool thank you! Are you converting a van?
No I can’t surf although I wish I could!
@@CaddyConversion I see. So what do you do with your van as in where do you go to chill? I am planning on converting my caddy, that I just bought.

What is the green paint you used buddy? Great job too 👏

Bonjour je vais aussi bientôt transformer le miens de caddy, il est de 1999 en 1.9D, je vais essayer le redémarrer aujourd'hui déjà.....
Brilliant👍
Love the worktop/sink
Thanks, yeah it’s a nice little eBay special sink and the worktop was someone else’s throwaway so good finds 👍
If you’re not already a member joint rat bastard crew on Facebook all kinds of cars etc from shiney to rat to hot rod to custom bikes everything’s welcome
Thanks - yeah I’m following the Instagram page but I don’t have a Facebook 👍
Great inspiration! How do you support the wooden extension for head support behind the seating area?
Thanks, it has a fold down pair of legs on it, you can see it in one of the videos where I build it in more detail and I’ll put up a caddy camper tour video this week where you can see it too.
Hi, i have a caddy mk2 , but have some problems to fix, i can't find the support for radiator, can u help me?
Hi - sorry to hear that. I don’t think i can help you unfortunately, best thing is to try some piston head or vw forums and ask in there where people can share photographs with you and hopefully that will help.
@@CaddyConversion ok, thank u :)
This is sick, might inspire my next build! How much total did you it cost you roughly without the charging dock/batteries? And the sink
Thanks mate, the only costs were the electrics , coffee sacks , adhesive, varnish and sink really, oh and also the cushions I’ve bought too but I was given a kitchen work top and a futon and a pack of flooring, so all of that stuff was free.

Probably about £300 or so spend I think maybe a bit more
Is that 3mm ply you used for the roof lining
No it’s either 5.5 or 6, I can’t remember which I used but it’s flexible as you can see
The music or is that music lord
It’s just free stock audio from UA-cam studio 👍
@@CaddyConversion Itmyzt be FREE because they couldn't SELL it! [Couldn't resist 😉].....
😂 waiting for the vinyl release
Great build man love it!
