This time, we're going behind the scenes at your #vanconverter to take a sneaky peak at the #vanconversion process. It's not a detailed guide to DIY Conversion - but a great insight into what happens to your van once you hand it over to professionals for conversion.
It follows the whole process from the initial strip out through the fitting of those familiar camper accessories such as the camper pop top, the camper bed and camper furniture.
There's even more detail on the whole process of converting and buying VW campers - as well as introduction to all the Transporter models and their campers in my Book of the Channel: "VW Campers for Beginners". Check it out on AMAZON: https://bit.ly/vwcampersforbeginners
In this video, there's also an insight into the preparation work that goes into making sure your campervan is safe - and warm. Campervan insulation gets lots of attention, with your camper floor and walls being padded to stop heat getting out and noise getting in. It's fascinating to watch Colin Almond and his team finish off the inside of the transformed Transporter with camper trip - a stretchy carpet-like fabric that goes into every nook and cranny - in the hands of professionals at least.
Don't forget to watch the other videos in my van conversion process for top tips on the whole process of buying a VW Transporter and having it converted into a great VW camper.
