- If you want a custom restored motor coach please follow the instructions below :) HAPPY CAMPING!
I started restoring micro motorhomes, campervans and classic motor coaches in 2012 and it's been so much fun to help people realize their dreams of travel and adventure. Now that demand has grown for my coaches it keeps me pretty busy with custom builds so if you want one you will need to call me to set up your own build. Everything you see in my CZcams channel has already been spoken for so you can watch and enjoy but to get one of your own you will need to:
1. Call me and plan your build + estimate costs. ($40,000 - $100,000 is normal)
2. Pay 50% of the estimate as a down payment. (more if plans change during the build process)
3. Allow 3-6 months for completion from the start date.
Feel free to call with any questions

This country needs a lot more Blakes.
Such quality, unlike the junky plastic overpriced crap of today’s rv’s. A classy old girl, well done.
What a great restoration. Thank you for sharing your video and your travel coach with us.
As the owner of a 1973 Minnie Winnie, I am greatly impressed by your craftsmanship, ingenuity, and attention to detail. If I lived near Colorado, I would much rather give you money to work on my current rig than put something into a new coach.
I wish you could restore my pot damaged memories of 1975 as well as you have restored this vehicle. I believe you have missed putting some music from Peter Frampton to fully restore 1975 in your van. Rock on Dude!
Fantastic, job well done , for sure ! 1975, back when gas was about $.55-.75 cents per gallon :)
Wonderful restoration. Loved that you left the bath as is. Thanks for the ideas. I like the covering on the stairs and the carpeting stuff on the wall. We are restoring a bounder.
Wow!!!! Beautiful, you did a great job!!!! Congratulations!!!!
i have owned 7 motorhomes and the newer ones have the damn swirls (vinyl graphics) on the exterior. I hate them and wish the manufacturers would go back to the conservative horizontal stripes and the good looks of your motorhome. It has a very classy look to it. Thanks for posting this. Your build quality and designs are first class. Well done!
I would love to have one of those.. The build quality was great back then...
I can see my band traveling the country in this, pulling a 6X12 u-haul with our equipment...that would be awesome!
You did an incredible job on this classic beauty...well done 👍
Man you did an awesome job on the dodge good to see the old girl back to her glory old self keep up the great work and it goes to show her you don't need new just loved and the older rv,s just feel better
What an excellent restoration. 👍🏻😊
Very nice work!! I can tell you’re proud of what you’ve accomplished and you should be. I bet you learned a lot refurbishing the RV. Probably 80% of the work you did on it you’d never done before. You just went full steam ahead tackling the task, probably studying different CZcams videos, etc. along the way. That would be how I’d have done it.
Awesome Work!
I like what you did with the co captains chairs to benches w/table.genius versatility
id totally love to see a how to on that alone
Great attention to detail. Awesome job. I think God himself is even pleased with your work. Greetings from Newark New Jersey. I can't even give enough praise to your excellent work.
What a beautiful rv! You’re very talented
Bravo! Excellent! Well Done!!! You are ... the MAN! Congraduelations to you, sir. You ROCK.
Please keep up the good work. You truly know how to restore these "homes" to good use.
That’s a great job. We love it here in Iran. I wish I could buy it and bring it here.
Lots of love and respect from here in Iran to you in USA
Nyx Doc, you’re not telling the truth and you know it. You know you don’t love it in Iran. You’re just saying that so the mullahs don’t have you and your family arrested.
Why would you say.... “We love it here in Iran”. From what I understand many (most younger and middle aged) Iranians would like to do despicable things to the mullahs, then kick their asses and then take their country back. They would then like to have a more Western style culture, being able to dress and say what they want.
So don’t even try to tell us that you love it there in Iran!
Nyx Doc, it’s interesting that the “Up Next” videos include one about the Shah of Iran...lol!
Marty Lucas I think what Nyx Doc meant was: "We love (The Travco), here in Iran."
I'm planning to find and buy an old motor home. Been watching videos for ideas. I just discovered yours and I have to say, from what I've seen you do outstanding work. Hoping for nothing less than the best for you. You have quite a unique thing going.
Sweet remodel!! Thanks for sharing.
Wow what a great restoration! Thanks so much for sharing.
Excellent restoration of a timeless classic RV!!
Wow, what a project! Fantastic result - it looks gorgeous!
Super-well done!
Excellent workmanship. That's hard to find in these times.
You’ve got an absolute talent! Incredible job those front seats are such a good idea! Hope you keep going with your restoration work, it would be a waste to not use your talent.
Wow. So cool. Great job. It's clear that this is a lobor of love. Appreciate the video.
Great job son!
BIG THUMBS UP!!!! I couple of things that seemed to me that would have been cheap and better. Solid or glass backsplash, fried fish and wood,? The small night stand, soft close drawer guides vs sticky drawers. Easy for me to say since I was not there.
That is absolutely gorgeous. Nice work.
Wow ! I’m impressed with the entire motor home ! You done a outstanding job on it !
That is so awesome! You have done well with the Travco!
Absolutely stunning I love it, thank you for the video, well done enjoy bless
Sweet looking Travco. I regret that I've never seen one in person. I've seen pics of them, and I find them more attractive than most motorhomes of the 1970s. :)
you did a great job
Carry tools in a new coach...if you can work on it🤔😂 you are the only one ( besides me ) that has ever said you serviced the rear end. A few ( very few ) service their transmission! Love the external flaps! Miss the side vents in cars. Yes I’m old!! Most complete remolded I have seen. Great job!!
Superb job! Everything looks awesome. You have a good eye for coordinating decor!
Awfully nice job Blake. I am inspired and envious of your skills.
Congrats Man. You did a awesome job and keep RV history.
Looks great , very inspiring from Ontario Canada
Nice! Great work. Greetings from Poland.
Sharp Motorhome.
Amazing job!! Super vehicle.
Terrific job, lots of nicely done details.
amazing ….Good job blake !!!sublime
Great work. Really impressed with the RV.
Excellent job ! That should sell easily to the right RVer.
Excellent job. You thought of everything
Dude, incredible. You are smart and you work hard. Very nice!
Great job on the restoration!
you did a great job compliments
What a stunning motorhome. My father, an MD in small town Ohio, bought a new one in 1964 with 2 other Drs. and they used it like a "time share" (course at that time, the term didn't exist!). I'm going to save your video as I've considered buying one myself. Thanks - beautiful job!
This one is already spoken for but my next build is a 67 270 with a cummins 12 valve diesel.
Blake Law I like your work, Blake, where are you located?
I'm interested in the 67
So I just picked me up a 67 travco and I am in the very beginning stages of restoring the inside...I got very, very luck...First off the motor is original with only 3000 miles on it, basically the whole thing is like new except for one thing, the inside has been completely torn out, it has all new appliances and I mean all the appliances are new I just have to rebuild the inside to accompany all those appliances...I have never owned an RV and this is a huge learning curve for me but I do look forward to the challenge since this is now my permanent home...I will have a wood stove inside, essentially I will make it a beautiful home on wheels for me and my little chihuahua to live in...See you guys out on the road. Post Script...Thanks for the video, it give me some great ideas on what I should with my home.
Did you finish the restitution of your RV
Nicely done!
Awesome! Nice job Blake!
Very nice job there Blake!
Nice rebuild and great little tour.
Did a good job on that rig.
Wow, beautiful work
A very nice motor home!!!!! Have a lot of fun with it!!!! Greetings from germany 👍👍👍👍👍

Awesome job thanks for sharing
Looks great nice job.
Omg simply gorgeous !!
Excellent job.
absolutely gorgeous!
great job and video!
Beautiful Job.
Great job and perfect
Johnny Cash LOVED THESE..
We loved Johny Cash. TY for that piece of JC facts. Very cool
packingten - Johnny Cash’s brother was a factory service rep for Chrysler. He was 20 or so years prior to me. And that’s been decades ago. But stories were still around about him rolling up his sleeves and taking off his tie to go back in the dealership service dept to fix cars. This was on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. I think his name might have been Roy. May have had something to do with Johnny liking Travco’s???
Amazing Job!!!!!!
Great job.
@8:22 - amazing bunk bed from couch !
Very nice restoration
Very nice!
"WOW".... BEAUTIFUL
VERY nice job!!!
Nice job.
wow what an awesome job
When I was shopping for my first coach there were a couple of good choices the Travco was one the other was a 1976 Chevrolet Sierra 28 ft Class A. I chose the Chevy because it had a full size bed. But I loved it. I lived in it for 6 years and then upgraded to a 1988 36ft Gulfstream Sunstream Hi-Rise class A. I've remodeled the interior and upgraded the furnace, water and heater to a tankless on demand. But I've been living in this coach for almost 25 years now.
The Travco's are excellent and that 440 Dodge engine definitely has the power to run it.
Bravo and well done
It's beautiful
Magnificent, IMO 👌🏼
Wow...this is nice...
What a amazing car! Unfortunately we are too late....next year in april we continue our world trip in the usa and we are looking for a vintage rv....we are a family of 4 and need 4 beds... realy good job mate...
Attention: A superb job done with a lotta TLC!
When this rv is done right it competes with the Bowlus rv (that is based on a 1930s chrome deco design) for a smart design that could be remade today.
super cool
nice job...
I like it. Great job fixing it up. My dad had a 74 Travco so I recognize a lot of the inside. The frig was a 3way, roof ac, but the back was just a bed. Also did you use a splitter on the battery. My dad put in a truck battery like you did but had another battery for just the engine. The engine alternator ran to the splitter and could charge both batteries at the same time.
if was a beautifull motorhome and you made it better
OMG !!! You have done such an fantastic job, surely a labor of love. How will you ever be able to put a price on all the time you have invested in this unit ?
Awesome
Excellent job. How do you handle the mechanical and electrical repairs and updates? I would like to build a Travco 22', but 4x4 with a cummings.
"I like what you did with the co captains chairs to benches w/table.genius versatility".
Reply here and on top, LOVE IT LOVE IT!!! But the seat belt????
Do you restore these for a living or just for fun ?
Very nice job but I've always thought painting walls cabinets makes everything look tacky. You make old rv interior look good with just reupholstering and new countertops and wallpaper in kitchen and baths.
Hey Blake, greetings from Mexico !! AWESOME job on the Travco !! A friend of mine purchased a Travco recently and asked me to look up info on the company. We are in Mexico, near the capital, any info you have regarding manuals and how things worked on a original 1975 Travco would be greatly appreciated . I need info about the black and grey water system so I can translate it for my friend. Thank you very much and great job on the restoration/ refurbishing of the Travco !
Great community of RV'ers. U guys stick together. Love that
brother i would invest in a fire suppresion system that zip ties to the eng i would hate to see that beauty get hurt i watch all the stuff thats gets burt at the auction pce brother live the good life
Love what you have done. Could you please tell me where you found the rear convertible couches?
