Refitting small marine engine with refurbished heads, pistons, and con-rods
Extraordinary craftsmanship and attention to detail. Well done!!!
Not a " how to "... more like a " watch me build this "
If you love this sort of thing then enter Yorkie Greenwood Of Northumberland England Builder and painter of Gypsy Caravans most amazing skills of art work
Obviously, these guys have never seen a gypsy Vardo (wagon) Sorry guys, you did a great job building this but it looks nothing like a gypsy wagon.
They are in three bath 🛁 La tu mlache
Love it . Great work . About to start a build myself and thank you for the video .
Probably more akin to a shepherd's wagon. But still not correct as those are horse drawn.
Very cool build did you have to put anything on the plywood outside to protect it from weather? Beside painting it of course. Thanks for sharing
Just paint, has held up fine. Needs a scrub down and a recoat every few years
Thank you
Awesome!
Not a gypsy wagon
Hello, sorry for my English, but I love what you did. I have a question for the roof of the trailer, is it painted canvas? Can you tell me more about it? Thank you in advance.
Yep, just painted heavy canvas with exterior latex. Fibers swell up and tighten the fabric around the frame as well as make it waterproof. Got the idea from canvass kayaks.
@@Andor3000 Okay, thanks for the information. And on the insulating level between the 2 canvases, what did you put on?
Wow, what a great video! Thank you
why did i just watch this?
Great video! Thanks
Excellent. Muzak sucked
With all the special tools and care taken on the inside you would think the outside would be a little more ornate. Great build! Great video!
Nice work; having watched so many videos on vardos I’m thinking of making a folding round top style Vardo similar to the folding sheep wagon that other dude made.....see if I can make one 12 feet long and keep it light weight enough to be towed by a car.... ((If not I’ll just have to buy a truck)) Use it to travel the lower 48 on short trips until I can retire full time to my property in Alaska..
Light weight was the focus of the design here for sure. Still, the trailer is ended up being vastly undersized and it is sketchy to tow with the van. Don't underestimate the danger of towing something too big with a small vehicle! Good luck!
Toba Yeah, but in addition to cutting weight you also need to cut wind resistance; one of the ways you do that is by shrinking the size. Like I said, “folding.” So instead of the Vardo sticking up 7 feet above the axle, it will only stick up 3.5 feet above the axle...cutting wind resistance in half. I can’t remember the name of the guy that posted it, I think his last name was smith, look for folding sheep wagon and you should be able to find his video. By reducing wind drag you are less likely to have trailer pushed around by high winds...that is NOT the whole issue, I get that, but most cars are rated to tow between 1500 and 2000 pounds, so with a 700 pound trailer you still have 800 pounds to go for the 1500 pound mark. When pulling it don’t store water in the trailer, have everything set up in removable bins that you can take out and put in the vehicle when driving, the ends and tub out of wood sandwiching foam, screwed and glued; then cover with a canvas tarp, insulation of your choice, and an oilcloth tarp, an viola....bed and compost toilet in a box... that weighs little enough to be folded up and towed by a car.... Also, you can get a trailer stabilizer... it is basically another bar between the trailer and car with a shock absorber...they work wonders....but not enough if you go outside the vehicles weight limit.... As an aside, you might want to take your van to your mechanic and ask him about hardening up the suspension in the rear. It can make a difference....but me, I’d do that last. Again, love the vid, can’t wait to build mine and post.
@@Rick_Sanchez_C137_ vardos are horse drawn and have four wheels. This is a trailer.
Good video, but a bad how to, because this is not a simple build and a lot of specialized tools/equipment were used.
Well im a very creative person and i bought myself a camper trailer that im completly redoing and i want to make the inside just like a gypsy vardo. I have so many ideas and all i need now is for the rain to stop. ;)
Another white person pretending to be gypsy? A vardo is horse drawn. Gypsy is a derogatory word if used by non roma. You are the kind of person who wears black face aren't you, racist.
Amazing work! So much talent to embrace watching your gerat video! Thanks for sharing! (woodshaver LJ's)
good, but in my personal taste the toilet is to close to bathtub kinda not romantic :D
Just about to embark on my own project to single handedly build a gypsy caravan. My intention is to travel europe by horse and with having my home travelling with me I'll travel in comfort. Thanks for the vid, it's given me a few ideas, neat job guys :)
hahaha that's awesome! glad you liked it!
How can it be a gypsy caravan if you are not a gypsy? Call it an american caravan.
@@Judathehero Elvis says he"a Gypsy.lol.
@@brandtbollers3183 did he? I don't think he never said he was. No records exist where he said he was.
@@Judathehero ROFLMAO.Try decaff O King of the Rom.lol
Great job on the repost!
I've got 4 syncros and one 2wd. These cars are awesome. However, they have 2 weaknesses: Transaxle and engine. To anyone who buys one of these: Unless it has already been done, rebuild the transaxle. It is money well spent. Then replace -or prepare to replace - the engine, whether it is the wasserboxer OR the 1.6 turbo diesel. Put in an Audi 5 cylinder, a VW 18T, a TDI, or a Subaru engine. Whatever. Sort these two things out and you have one of the most comfortable, versatile and reliable classic cars ever. I absolutely love them. Great job on your car, Toba. Well done!
Alf Torp do u live in the us
Nope. Norway.
All this effort is only worth it if you remove the useless, hateful boat anchor wasserboxer engine and install a proper mill.
well that hateful boat anchor has taken me coast to coast of Canada twice, southern Mexico and back and she's still going. I'd call that satisfactory for 30 year old engine.
people hate what they don't understand. Never had a serious breakdown in any of my 3 wasserboxers, maintenance, maintenance, maintenance
Barefoot body work! Outstanding job!
PPE is #1 priority!
How long did this take you?
Great job.
awesome video!!! should present final result on the end though! great anyway
haha yes I agree, I made the video while away from home and out of the thousands of photos I had none of the finished product lol
excellent work
Sweet video and Vanagon. Can't wait to see part 2.
great video, thanks for sharing cant wait to get my syncro done now :)
No comments yet???? Great job guys...on both the van and the video. I wish you would post your video in real time on how you removed the side windows.
thanks! the side windows you just need to push on from the inside. we carefully pryed them out with a couple of 2 by 4s
Pretty good effort
LEARN TO WEAR A HELMET !!!!
