It will be so dark in the van - some windows would’ve been nice!!
"better than dieing instantly..... without suffering!" 😂😂😂
Well actually, if you kept a clean shop, you wouldn’t loose so many tools.
Thought that was Kermit at 3:48
Who cares if people are having to live in vehicles because of the divide created by the rich cunts. Support your local travellers
That could've been a secret compartment for a weapon, money or other valuables!
here for the comments! like that time Sam Crac used caulk on his Range Rover motor
Camera guy please use a tripod, your footage gives me motion sickness!
The welded patch is likely to rust again, at the weld spots. Can be mitigated by heating with a flame and slow cooling, followed by a coat of zinc rich paint.
Leenda is stunningly beautiful! Best of luck to her. Hope the rebuild works well.
OMG! Your sarcasm be killing me. I have considered Van Life, Tiny Homes and all that. Tiny home would be. Nice, But the mobility would be an initial problem. An RV would be huge and nice ,but the upkeep and gas. It would be like a Blue Bird Sckoolie conversion. Huh!
Now Brian has made up for the whole chicken wing problem he has....
I don't get why people call ups--- u.p.s it's simply ups no need to spell it. It's not a word you need to prove you can spell it like some 7 letters words u get called on that it to stupid to spell even tho you used it 10 times in a day
The purpose of the partition wall or cage is to protect the driver & passenger from flying objects in case of a front end collision. Get in a wreck, everything comes flying at the back of your head, possibly decapitating you. Same effect as a headache rack on a semi.
Vans, they love to rust. Word is; that newer European models are treated better. Like the past 5 years or so, but I'm no expert.
Is it possible to remove the governor in an engine?
That fan should make for some exciting emergency haircut stories with lots of screaming and everything. Well...not from ALL of the dudes. :)
👏Someone👏Lives👏In👏That👏Van👏
I'm using a sprinter cargo van as a family van. Have you seen the cost of a sprinter passenger van? They are 3 times the amount as a cargo van. None of these vans are cheap. This van is fantastic for doing anything. I had plenty of room to put a half bath and a small kitchen with a fridge and microwave. No more restroom stops on long drives. The kids could care less about windows with the 32 in TV for their video games. Going to the kids sporting events. None of us have to use those nasty port-a-potties.
rich plugged sone water resistant hemp shoe at some point. anyone remember the brand?
Lmmfao "This is gonna be like a tomb" ummm what bro?
Also how did Lunch with stepmom go
I’m starting to believe lenda is more than an Assistant
"Go on ALthe right now!" *shows "Puppy Hiding in Beard" as a top recommendation* Well, I didn't expect to get two videos for the price of one, but here we are.
Throw the boxes out like an..Idiot...is Rich an....Idiot??A jackass Idiot at that...I'll sing the song of..Rich is an Idiot who would break things because he's tooooo daaamm lazy to set the box down. If this is Society his Momma failed miserably at raising their child...I'm not watching this Idiot any more...Idiot Central....
Smash?
I’m tripping balls in acid and you having your own face on your underwear fucking sent me lmao
you should paint the outside with Raptor liner, works amazing, 2 coats and it's ready for the road the next morning
"It's 2021 and there's no such thing as steath camping in a 170" wheelbase van with solar panels on top. New Flash! People know you live in that van! You aren't fooling anyone!".....🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm officially subscribing after this! Hilariously true!
I too appear delightful in my own underwear
Them sprinters rust like foook come to think of it Merc cars also rust like fooook 🤔
i'd have kept that cab partition just for a bit of extra security when Not in the van
Looks like she will be living the american dream, 21th century edition
i'm surprised "be quiet" doesn't sue "BQUITE" for having a name so close.
How you doing looking for a Cadillac Escalade please can you help me
Were waiting for her to twerk
Big mouth, it what they wanted you to think. You talk too much!
This rebuild is actually pretty good
But why would you ever take that front partition down? Light blocking. Security. Able to peak out and see who might be outside. Shelving.
The guy with the red beard sounds like goddamn Kermit no wonder gingers have no souls .
RICH please see this... We would LOVE to see you build a TESLA VAN
$8 cost in materials, $200 cost in labor
Your degrading asf bud. Loved your channel ubtill you started acting like a pos
Rich is a marketing genius.
I am saddened beyond belief that not one joke about Leenda's "only fan" in the ceiling was cracked.
"That's a lot of caulk" "Big drippy caulk"
That is why you put a made up solar technology company logo on the van. And a hi-viz vest to put on the back of one of the front seats.
Simps.
That was Home Depot right? But Rich said Lowe's??
A 1 dollar acid brush and 2 dollars worth of seam sealer would have taken care of that rust a lot faster. But I like what you did for 8 more minutes of content.
RIch is the only other person who I have heard mention Flight of the Navigator. I could not watch that enough as a kid. :)
Hey...I did the roof! Awesome video, you guys are hilarious!
If you mount a tv to the wall, it'd be cool to put a camera in and make it function as a tv and then a window.
It may be an 8 dollar part but his skill would imply that the labor still cost about the same. 🤔😉
I hope you’re gonna turn off the MPH and the Rev Limiter. $65 for the cheapest obd connect 32
Partition gives you privacy
That’s your number 1 fan 🤣
Hey man can you help me to get tesla for cheaper price pleaseeeee
8 DOLLAR PART BUT 1000 FOR STAMP AND WELD MACHINE
M.B. doesn't mean quality.
Wow! Nice sheet metal patch! Y'all made that look much too easy.
Balls
at 7:50 the van is getting the last of its taste of having fedex drivers in it the way he's hucking the packages out lol
Am i the only 15 year old kid here watching bcs you like the vids for the vids and not linda
Gotta love rust repair! "Hey, it's a tiny hole. We'll be done by lunch time." Two days later you have chased that rust hole with the welder half way to the other side of the car and you're looking for two more panels to completely replace because you have discovered more rust under paint. Good job on that patch panel though. Wasn't expecting it to be contoured to match the floor, but makes sense with how large it ended up being. Looks good!
Bro Ain't getting money from Home Depot....
Everyone insulates for heat loss and sound deafens their floor, walls and doors.
*I F T H E V A N ' S A R O C K I N ' , D O N ' T C O M E K N O C K I N '*
Why do you keep saying Leenda lives in the van? She took a roadtrip in it with a friend and then drove home to her apartment in LA...
so where Is the Hot girl at?
I’m fully convinced rich is a virgin
Now, I can understand that your odds are lower in the NE, but did you try a local pick and pull for a similar van and cut a patch panel from it?
Is this thing getting wrapped!? I don't know if the point is to keep it stealth but that would be so cool!
Hi Rich, how can I reach u regarding a new tech idea?
$8 for single peice of steel but assuming everyone owns a welder, step bits, drill wire brush heads.....a couple hundred more than advertized really but that's ok. Still a good tut.
"Well would ya look at that!" "Would you just look at it?" Ahaha awesome reference. 23:27
Lmao the perpetually missing 10mm. Usually it's a 10mm socket, but I suppose the issue afflicts wrenches too!
"Grinding and paint makes you the welder you ain't"
21:25 that filename tho
Corvette still parked? Lemme get that.
Cool channel but SO. MUCH. ADVERTISMENT. on top of the actual adsense ads.
I think you should buy a DeLorean and turn it into a Tesla.
A white van with no windows on the side or back is a kidnapping van....aka night stalker mobile!😅✌🏾
Did anyone else notice his opened tabs when he was using the computer? Lmaoooo
Unnecessarily long runtime. Try to reduce it 👍
Should have bought a used RV instead this seems like too much
For whoever wasn’t using headphones at 12:53 by your parents you are probably dead by now.
Just now realizing the consistency and depth of riches attitude by scrolling through his minicooper thumbnails...
@RichRebuilds please note that this silicone stuff you used for caulking the vent was technically the total wrong stuff. At home in your bathroom the temperature differences summer to winter are not big. But parking the van in the summer sun and driving through winter temeratures requires a stuff that is designed for that and will not crack and leaking. The internet is full of camper van owners crying over leaks because they made it wrong. Do not make the same mistake Leena will have to regretting, please. The right stuff for that is Sikaflex®-252 : is suitable for dynamic loading, structural bonding, Product advantages: 1 part, Elastic, Can be painted, Tolerance compensation, High dynamic load, Vibration-retardant, Non-corrosive, High electrical resistance, Wide range of adhesion, Silicone free Greetings from Germany! Love your channel
Hate to say it after the fact but you should have sprayed as much closed cell foam for the exterior walls, roof and doors as possible. That insulation you are using doesn't have much of an R factor regardless of how they advertise it. Also the metal framing that the walls will connect to will cause thermal bridging and bypass your insulation. Insulation is going to be the limiting factor of how comfortable the rig is and how much fuel she uses.
Flight of the Navigator!? I was rolling on the floor at the RichHub underwear thing but you had me up and cheering when you mentioned that old movie. I had a big crush on Sarah Jessica Parker from that film. Thank you, good sir
They do all this work on the van, give it to her then she sells it and buys a cheap condo, lol.
Honestly brother i wouldn't mind to have the old van if you can send it to me in ghana. I wonder why aliens would complain someone living in a van. Please brother i need that old van ain't joking I could make a living out of it believe me.
The fine gearshift anecdotally scrape because professor uncommonly learn a a past war. ruddy, jumpy appeal
Ok Rich, I am volunteering to be the voice of many a viewer. We want to see more of Leenda (and More, meaning her body). Also, I can't believe you are not getting donations or products in the sprinter build, this would be better than paying for a commercial for them!!
Rich, while the pornhub joke was good I would advise you to reconsider those types of jokes. Some people watch your channel with their kids. No hate or hard feelings. Take care and good luck!
the fan looks like really good quality. you should post a link of for us Bro. warm and cool van with a good sound system too.....
10mm is annoying
It still woulda been cool to have a complete barrier between cockpit and rear area.
Hey what's happening rich just wanted to let you know man your badass bro you build some cool shit. You seem like a cool dude so hell with all them haters out there man. All you haters need to get a life. You're doing some cool stuff bro I love your videos.
