You're a good explorer 💯🙂 and I'm just glad you found a hobby something to drive around in something to save you money something for the summer 🌞 because you work hard exploring😊
Colin, that was absolutely incredible! I'll never do anything like this myself but - for some reason - I found myself transfixed by your efforts here! Isn't it just great to see a sad, neglected old thing like this brought back to life ..... and a good life at that!!
Great vid to watch Colin, takes me back some 50 years when I used to do all my own mechanics and welding, Oxy acetylene in those days no mig lol, can't do these things anymore but its a treat to watch you young uns keeping the art alive, thanks for posting.
Mega transformation looks awesome
Excellent job looks very professionally done. You're really skilled in restoration in and the mechanical side of it.
Good job looking good!! Can't wait to see the insulation
Looking forward to checking out the new channel along with this one 😀
That was really good to watch. Nice to show you got a lot of talent. Will look forward to you doing this van. Outside already looks awesome. A Nice set of all terrain tyres would make it look even better but cost. very nice. Can't wait to follow
I didn't realise how good of a vehicle restorer you are! Well done and I really enjoyed watching this.
Amazing Colin how you have transformed that van,❤can’t wait for you to do the inside ❤ stay safe ❤x
That isn't looking half bad, Colin! You are pretty handy with the tools. Love the results of this van. Subbed to the new channel.
Loved it ❤👏🏻 … so impressed with how you’ve given the van a whole new lease of life 😊just subscribed to your new channel & looking forward to watching 👍
Colin mate I love your channel.. what you do when you go looking for abandoned houses and cars is epic.. I also love going to find them too.. Only problem is I don't get out much now (family commitments) so seeing your videos is a great way for me to still do it!!.. keep up the great work mate. 👍
Just found your channel via someone else’s channel.. I have an LT35 and just browsing for some ideas. Owned the van for 8 years(I think) it’s a service van, compressor/electric genny in the back and shelving for tools, flood lights/vice etc. I intend to use it to travel to my Jag which is.. 500 odd miles from my home on Scotland.. I have been majorly distracted from both the van and Jag.. but have been in the van again of late … welding stuff it needs a lot of bodywork more than your van and Intend to fix my doors as good old ones are rare(like the mirror shrouds you mentioned) anyhoo have subbed and look forwards to watching and following your restoration channel.. best Malcolm/Fife/Scotland
Your energy and soul always shines through 🧠💪🙋♂️💚🎼 Nathan 🙏
Love it Colin. Looking forward to your new channel 👍
Just subbed in Colin hope the new channel does well can't wait for uploads to start 👌 and thank you for even more of your time 👍
Hi Wow! What a video and transformation of that van.I am so looking forward to all these videos. I would certainly let you work on any of my car problems. 10 out of 10 for workmanship. You certainly keep yourself busy making videos and repairing vehicles.Look forward to next weeks video.Take care.😃
Well that's a first. I have just subscribed to a channel with no content!! (The Bearded Restorer) I guess I will have to be patient and wait for the restoration videos to arrive. Best wishes for the new channel.
can't be mad at that. love a bit of solid olive.
What a transformation, Colin! Sounds epic too.
Outstanding work. I would not even know where to start myself. Like n sub.
Cool video love the content 👌👌
Colin.ive not watched all yet.but when you say. Turn it into a camper. Go for it. I've a Citroën belonging. On a 57 plate. I've turned that into a one bed camper. With hot and cold water.cooker. and microwave.ideak for me.when I do my sea fishing.on East yorkshire coast.
Yeah! That’s exactly what I’ve just done 😎✌️

Mate what fab video and I know your new channel be as good as normal channel your inspirational video has got me wanting go buy van aswell
Wish I could do something like that, excellent transformation
Wow Colin you've done a fantastic job on that can't wait to see the next one 👍👍
Nothing better than just cracking on with it yourself if you can do it rather than giving to someone else to do 🙌
Results are always worth it even if it does take some time !
Well done, excellent job on something that was scrap and rusting away, saved from the scrapper will make a brilliant camper.
Incredible! Great video. Look forward to the new channel. I really wanted to do this kinda thing when I left school but my dad was having none of it (so sexist) 😢 I'm ok with it now but it's still so cool seeing others restore old vehicles!
Wicked Wicked Wicked.....I have Overlanded on Motorbikes And Landcruiser's That was great fun Brings back good memories
of Prepping for big trips.....I Salute You Sir Great Content.
Brilliant I really enjoyed this content!
You did a really thorough job on the LT. Looking forward to the restoration of your other vehicles.
Will be subscribing to the Bearded Restorer... Which is a lovely play on words :)
Looking good Colin.
I was pleasantly surprised, when I seen you get the roller out b4 welding I thought here we go, but hats off you got some skills 👍
Omg Colin, that's bloody amazing,my daughter would love that, much respect to you keep them coming 👏 🙏 ❤️
Nice one Colin. Love the videos. I've got a 40 year old mint Mini.

Hi Colin, hope your doubg good.
That video i loved.
I love the green paint you picked out. Can't wait to see the next video on it.
Stay safe & take care.
You & family have a safe & Happy Easter holiday.
Nice to see it saved, 5 cylinder and side exit exhaust sound good 👍
Was actually worried when I saw you with a roller but looks really good, love the colour choice.
Don't know much about restoring cars/vans Colin but you've done a fabulous job on the van. Love the colour and looking forward to watching your second channel xx
Yeah man! I seen your van at the needles back in August. Parked next to you in the carpark
Not too bad. Ive seen worse. Good job there. Looks so much better now. ❤❤❤❤
Fantastic idea Colin routing for you 👍you know your knowledge 👍 looking forward to up coming videos ........awesome ,the van from the outside what a turn around ....
Really great watch!!! Look forward to seeing more on this build :)
You have done a cracking job so far well done bud. I’m not into the outward bound stuff like the snorkle , ladder, roof terrace etc but hey each to his own. Looking forward to seeing the interior work ; I’m doing a Transit (Jumbo) XLWB as a camper and enjoy seeing others do theirs. Well done pal
Great stuff dude really enjoyed it !
Colin I don’t know how you find the time to do everything you do! But fair play love your Chanel and I have subscribed to the restoration Chanel too 🌹

Colin nice job well done
Looking forward to the new channel Colin!
I'd think twice about the wooden decking on the roof, I've recently stripped a decking roof rack of a badly converted Transit Mk7 I bought recently, it's made the drive so much nicer without all that weight on the top.
i love this build..its a beaut.greetings from barry island south wales
Well done you not bad all the best Tony and Helen ❤
Gr8 effort and gr8 content 👏
Love this mate looking forward to watching videos on new channel

This is cool, was wondering when we’d see some action on these vehicles of yours 👍 Bearded Restorer ! Love it 🤜

Cool looking van!
Nice one Colin, is there going to be a Part 2? really hope so.
Colin got skillz. Great job.
Grand job, Colin . I know very little about restoring vehicles , well , nothing actually . I wouldn't know the difference between a Mig ana a Tig welder . You certainly know your onions , so I shall take a drive over to your restorer channel . Who knows ,I may learn something . Cheers .
@@edwinthompson6510 Thanks for that ,Edwin . I am a little wiser .
My car needs to be in the hands of this guy lol, Very impressive work make it look easy 👍
Coming on well mate good video 👍👍
Brilliant video Colin can’t wait for the new channel 👏
I've just bid on a 53 plate lt35 camper but mot history very good no advisories for rust so fingers crossed.
Enjoyed the video. Looking forward to more of these videos on your new channel. 😊👍
Nice job Colin the van is looking great especially in that army green, your skills have paid off great work. 👊
Love it great colour fella
You will put Al 6d diesels out of business at this rate .
Good job he owns a heavy press for those pesky plastic pig engines😂👍🏻.
The underseal reminds me of the yearly underselling my golf mk3 estate receives.
Nice work looks really good and a fantastic transformation.... 👍
Love it…subbed to the new channel too.
Looks great nice job look forward to the rest of the build
I subscribed to ur new channel, can't wait!
