People watching this and doesn't know how much effort&time was giving to build such work (alone)!
This is probably the most beautiful van build I’ve ever seen!! Well well done!!
Wow. So much detail! Thanks for sharing. Beautiful craftsmanship!!!
I dig it. Well done😊
Great build & unique layout, well done
A man and his dog on an adventure. That’s the definition of freedom! Great build, too.
Log cabin on wheels! Inspiring
Thanks
oh i needed to see this, im doing a similar build and your layout is nearly the same as mine but i had a hard time visualizing how it would look, this video took care of that for me so now i know my layout will work. gonna have to come back and check out more of your videos.
Amazing! And intimidating! :-)
Wooooo super vary good job
Master build! Absolutely LOVE it! I'm buying a 2003 Savanna today and hope to do a similar build. Haha I have absolutely zero experience in doing this, so I will probably be watching your video here many times! Thank you for posting. Your van is beautiful!
I have a 2002 GMC Chevy Savanna 3500 with a cage. Just like this one. I love my van. 350,000 miles on it and still runs awesome. Wish I had $$ to do what you did with yours. Good Job
This build should definitely have more views. The sliding door, the rope trim on the side doors.. like come on eh!
Couldn’t agree more. Ha
That's a wow for sure!! But really want to see the potty room,too🤔 did you use tile?? Is it an shower,too??? Lol fantastic job for sure!👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I truly admire the work you've done! GOOD job!!!
Wow! The best build I've seen.
What a Great Build! The best I've seen
I really like how you showed how you got it going used it then showed the progress, great build
very nice
WOW WOW, I love everything you’ve done to your van. Your skills are top notch…Your dogs photos, enjoyed them very much! I’m converting my 2001 Express with the help from my son in law. I will be traveling with my dog and we can’t wait to get out there and “Take the Scenic Route” Safe Travels
Just bought an express van to convert and this is the perfect set up for what i need. Rolling office part of the year and camper the other part. perfect!!
Just beautiful. Really excellent work.
Great build, looks like you had an awesome time in Alaska.
Very solid build and like your ideas used. Well done!
What an awesome job!
Simply Beautiful planning, workmanship and Transformation on a Savana I've ever seen. I'm doing a 2009 Savana on the Precise Layout. You have provided me with some in-depth size & Ideas for my Van. Thank you for sharing. Cheers from Toronto, Canada!
Amazing job.
First off anyone that has a dog has a special place in my heart. Secondly that was a wonderful video. Really did a amazing job. Then the Alaska scenery to end was gorgeous. I'm working on my van now with hope to be camping by next summer. Then a few runs to make sure everything is GtoG before we head to Alaska. Wanna go visit my army buddy in Kenai Peninsula. Great job
Thank you for your kind words and for watching! Alaska is beautiful, especially the Kenai, enjoy your trip! Good luck on your build!
Beautiful job. Love your travel buddy.
Very professional build!!!
Love your build. It doesn't have to be the most beautiful so long as it's functional. The beginning layout was great
it looks great.
Amazing build! I love it!
Thank you! 😄
Nice build. I built out my Chevy express. It was very challenging with all the curves and such.
What a great build of ❤ I learned a few tips I can use like that great book storage! Love the furbaby too
Thank you, glad I can help others with ideas! Book storage was a quick after thought but ended up being perfect.
Your build is phenomenal.
Thank you!
Amazing 👏
Thank you! Cheers!
Hola amigos, estoy armando una Renault Master l1h1 y voy a tomar parte de tu diseño de camper. Abrazo grande desde Mar del plata Argentina 🙋
😘 “Always takes the scenic routes” 🎃👌 Superb 👍 a very keen eye for details
Thanks a lot 😊
Amazing van build ! I do like the how it is so open in the middle. Nice. Please make more videos.
More to come!
Nicely done. Very distinguished van lol
Wow! Beautiful, well thought workmanship. Very impressive. Probably the best that I have seen on KZhead. I just had to subscribe.
Wow, thank you!
Very,very nice .
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow. I would like to have mine like that
Butiful. Just spectacular.
Thank you very much!
i like very nice job
Did you buy those brackets on your roof top? Nice built though.
Absolutely beautiful build! One question though...how did you prevent condensation from cooler getting on wood?
Thank you! We don't seem to have that problem at all with our cooler. I do put warm water in my 6 gallon water jugs when I fill them to prevent condensation.
Great job, one of the best I've seen. Is this a standard length savana?
No, it's the extended version
Blocking side door and make a huge sink with cutting board cover is a GREAT IDEA! You still have 3 more doors. How do you expand the table?
Thanks! We pull open the drawers and the table top slides out and sits on them.
Очень классно! 🚐🐕🤠👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Is that a Rhodesian Ridgeback? Oh, beautiful build.
Thanks, Our dog (Glazier) is a Bloodhound/Rhodesian Ridgeback.
@@AlaskaCamperVan I thought so. I spent a year in Rhodesia back in the 80's and these dogs are awesome. I've always wanted one.
I’ve got the same van, have hopes of building out something close to how good yours looks. Only issue is I have a slider door on the side instead of barn doors, any suggestions from you or any others as to what to do with that space? Thanks
If I had bought a van with a slide door, I would have built the van the same way. I probably figure out how to make the ARB screen room work, probably the same way.. Allow the door to slide in the room after the magnets are attached.. IDK
Is it diesel? Did you get the fuel operated auxiliary heat generator option? Very cool build
Our van isn’t a diesel. We use a propane heater for a few minutes if we get cold. Since our van isn’t AWD we don’t drive it in the winter. Thanks for the comment. (Side note. My work van(Mercedes Sprinter)is a diesel and there is a diesel heater in the back)
What would you charge to do mine like that $$?
I have 1 question. It is well laid out and made. You have a cute dog, and if it were possible I'd like to reach through the screen and pet his head...... the 1 question? does your rig have a bathroom?
It does not. It does have an emergency bucket toilet located in my utility closet. When ever I get around to doing a Van tour, I hope to show the van in more detail.
Nice job. How much did the conversion cost you?
We figure about $5K on top of van price, maybe a little more. We were so bad at keeping track-sorry.
Hi you must have read my mind because this is my layout as well my question is why did you keep the bulkhead?
Needed the wall and the pocket doors to block out the sun at night. We also got the blackout mat for the maxx fan.
The only drawback is the low roof!!
Can we have a video tour please.
Yes, I plan on doing one soon.
Next time get a smaller dog! LOL!
What did that cost ?
I didn’t really total up the complete cost, we can assume $4-5000. That’s including electrical and accessories we wanted for our van.
what’s the radio
Podofo Double Din Car Radio
