A 9 month camper van conversion which took an estimated 500hrs to complete, shortened down to a 20 minute timelapse. The van is fully offgrid and self contained and includes a shower and toilet. We converted this van with no prior van building experience and completed the build in our spare time and holidays while working full time.

If you want to see any of the build in more detail, we have 31 detailed build videos documenting each part of the build on my other channel:    • Van Build
