What in the Andrew ST Pierre White is going on here??

Love the fact that non of these are thr default brands, giving more businesses a chance and keeping things competitive 👍

Having a Mulgo Roof conversion is like going business class, you can never go back, I've had one now for 5 years and love it.

Hey Ronny Boe here, The lift up panels get their gullwing name from the 1955 Mercedes Benz 300ls Gullwing which has lift up doors. It was the first production vehicle to have gullwings and hence coined the term "Gullwing" for side lift up panels. Regards Boe OCA

This is by far the most perfect roof conversion. Never seen this before. Another proof you did a lot of brainwork and research before you pick a product. Thank you and cheers

I helped Jonno and yourself man handle that roof rack to the gate - I should win by default 😄 it’s looking fantastic mate.

The rugged terrain we conquer with ease, Toyota 4x4, our trusty steed. With its powerful engine and four-wheel drive, We tackle the mud, the rocks, and the ruts with pride. The suspension so smooth, it glides over the ground, And the tires so sturdy, they never get stuck around. We drive through the wilderness, free as can be, With our Toyota 4x4, the ultimate off-road machine. And let's not forget the rack, the one on top, It's the cherry on top, the ultimate prop. It holds all our gear, our max trax and such, Nice rack, mate! the perfect finshing touch. With the Toyota 4x4, we go anywhere we please, And leave the city far behind with ease. Through the mountains and valleys, we roam, With our Toyota 4x4, we're never far from home. Love your work Ronny!

Absolute game changer having the internal hinge for the roof top tent! Brilliant. This will be the best pre dpf Troopy in Australia.

The best part I believe is the roof conversion, just the quality, the added security when vehicle I unattended for light finger people open up the roof to pop there head in. The weight is the most important not to go over your GMV with all the necessary gear to make life comfortable on the road.

We live in the US and we bought a troopy in Australia that’s 25 years old and had it all restored for a year long trip then we will ship it home. I think after watching this we will get this roof conversion done instead of the Alu Cab.

Ditto on the roof conversion and awning. Aussie made and excellent designs on both products. Looking forward to your rear fit - out!

This would be one of my favorite episodes. Well done guys, thank you.

You've got a great gift Ronny; thanks a bunch. Love how you're thinking, and how you're supporting Australian made products where possible.

love ya work, troopy is looking splendid! Party guy gets me every time!

I put one of your recommended window rests on my car and it scratched the shit out of my tint. Good one Ronny.

Love the roof conversion plus the tent part looks so much better then others and the rack is clean. Nice rack mate

Fantastic machine comin along there. The seats are my favorite mod. Gotta be comfy.

That awning is something else. Starting to see where this build and its direction are going.

Part 3 of the build is definitely my favourite so far, heaps of details and the biggest transformation so far aswell looks absolutely mint mate

It's definitely a game changer, Ronny, for 2023. I dare say many camping missions to come living out of this good looking tourer. Great job so far👍

Love the toopies' ability to get a roof conversion done. Hope one day companies will offer similar products for modern SUVs. Also, that's a nice rack mate!

I wanted to start with , Awesome Video, and while I'm not planning to set up my little mountain goat up for full time touring, there are some awesome and solid ideas in this video that I will definitely use. And I thought the best way to follow up how I feel about this, is with an Aussie flavoured Haiku, Ocean Side Kites Fly, Gull Wings Slice Silently Past, Black Beads Hunt Our Lunch, Keep up the good work Ronny! Des

SOOOO much nicer than the setup Andrew SPW went with on his new Troopy. Love this conversion. Light weight and looks proper. Really flows well with the lines of the vehicle. The slatted bed support is a nice touch too. Nice work.

lol i will turn it into tray roof rack for lux, loving the troopy well done with it

Started watching this video thinking,🤔🤔🤔 I didn't know Andrew (ASPW) was building another troopy, thats when I went and got my Glasses 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Ronny you picked a excellent rooftop Conversion.Daniel cut his teeth on the Land Rovers and then Troopy's ,and he is a great person to deal with.. The awning is the other item I find excellent in that both the front and back edges a square to the car,the disappointing thing it doesn't extend out 2.5mts from the car that would be the bees knees.loving the up grades Ronny.

what is great, is the fact, that they built the roof around the car - thats good for the fitment. But I doubt that it is very dark at night or in the morning. The tent itself seems very light transmitting. The design is so far the best I‘ve seen. Very close to the vehicle lines 👍🏼

Love the troppy 🤣

I Love the thought process you have put into the build, all different company's and ideas. I really like the look of this roof top than the other ones out there, it has me thinking of getting a troppy. Since you wont be needing that nice rack, it will look good on my old GU. Ill be over in the WA for a few months, maybe we could put the rack on together just a thought.

Can’t imagine another ending up better in the long run. Epic! Love the chop and internal latch and I’m sure you are also. Nothing like the ability to stay enclosed. Kitchen is going to be awesome! Great work 👍

Saw the troopy today. Looks very good, Ronny. A bit too clean though, it needs some dirt on it.

Absolutely loving this troops build! Those Gullwing windows are a great idea, would be really good when doing harder tracks too with how much the Troopys lean over, better to scratch them than shatter a window. That new slim roofrack looks like a nice rack mate, really making me miss my troopy and wish I done it up properly, up the troopy!!!

It is fascinating how developed Austria is in the field of production and development of off-road accessories and equipment. Just being out to see. Many congratulations to the developers, but above all I believe that this only happens because in Australia there really is a passion for off-road driving. It is not the case that, as much as we consider Mozambique to be a place with difficult roads, we consider Australia to be the king of the off-road, an inspiration for all lovers of an adventure on wheels in enchanting places. These places are not only special for their destination, but for their wonderful journey. Roof cutting is another level, both in terms of engineering, usability and performance. Surely cutting the coverage is another level. Is it possible to have the same cut roof for Prado 90 series 2000 or Pagero Junior 1998? Very great video, I can't wait to see the episodes of the return to Australia.

That Troopy looks amazing, Ronny! And it was awesome to see this modification happen in person. 02:29 Who is that handsome Devil in the back left?

Great build.

Gull wing: a very literal (albeit very specific as to the bird variety 😅) observation/description of the action of the window/door as to how it opens and closes.

Troopylooks clean! 👌

Like the esy you make the market research. Like the setup

Coming along Ronny! I really like the roof! Can't wait to see what's next 🤠

Another great vid, that awning is pretty awesome! I’d certainly go that if I had the a few bucks to spare, the perfect place to stretch out in the sway and keep dry. What was the code word again, must have zoned out.

Go the Mulgo! Nice rack mate. One just like it for the troops would be great to sit on to watch the uluru sunset later this year.

Loving the troopy build nice rack mate, your build is such an inspiration.🤙🏾

Loving the sweet troopy, a well thought out build! YAY, PARTY BOY SHAUN IS BACK! 🤣 awesome vid as always!

From Malaysia: The conversion looks GREAT. Illegal here, the JPJ, (Motor Vehicle folks) went Ballistic when I asked for permission to do this type of a conversion. Thanks for the comments on the seats. In 1976, I remodeled my back. L-4/5 is shot, + osteoarthritis. I have reached out to the U.S supplier. Expensive,yes but as a long haul driver required financial pain.

Comment for the roof rack, "If it was slightly longer, he would have kept it.". About the internal latching system, you do need to get out of vehicle find a rock to stop the vehicle from rolling no ?

Love it being called "The Troppy Project" in the video intro.

Hi Ronny, “nice rack mate”, that Mulgo V2 roof conversion looks awesome & the Destination 4WD awning is like the icing on the cake. My daughter is in the market for a Front Runner Roof Rack, she has just turned 18, just bought herself her first car, a Prado 90 series which she is converting into a tourer so she can get out on the tracks and go camping. Oh, she doesn’t even have her drivers licence yet 😂. Best wishes, Tony

The mulgo looked like the beter choice to me always, glad to see you chose it. The install process looks much cleaner than other brands since it's installed in parts. From ohther brands I've seen the roof being popped in in one piece. Nice Biggest awning? Darche with sidewalls imho is bigger though more work to set ut up proper. Keep going

Great episode Ronny. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the build. I bought my 75 series when I was an apprentice about 15 years ago. I've built everything myself including the roof rack. It's getting quite rusty and could do with a spruce up :D NICE RACK MATE!

Fantastic effort, love that you have used local where possible, service backup tends to be better even if it tends to be a little pricier to start with. The build is progressing well

Haha can't drill into the car for the gullwing. Awning needs custom brackets bolted to the body though, no bloody worries! Great option for those gullwings to be drill-less on less full on builds though!

That is quite a nice rack mate 👌 love the build! Definitely a dream tourer

rafaaaaaa! excelente!!

Awesome rig and love the windows Wow 👌 the space in the van that you can actually stand in , works for me Greetings Mate 🙏 and cheers 🍻 From south africa 🇿🇦

Your Troopy looks great. You Australians make good stuff mate. Appreciate it.

I like the fact that you payed attention to the weights because the rigidity of the body has changed.

Awesome set up! Love the pop top and those seats look great! Good job Ronny!

What a way to kick things off 2023,cheers ronny🍻

Looking awesome! Looking forward to seeing what comes next! 🤙

party its going to sound lame but I thought the awning adjustable hook on the side was awesome. I need to find that and put on my rack

im not a Landcruiser fan but even I think that is awesome.

really looking forward to this build - its gonna be awesome

Buy far one of the best troops around, I appreciate the fact that you actually take your time and do the big brain stuff first before diving in (it's actually helped me focus on my new 4bie mods without doing the whole shibang right away..)especially after the hilux when you addressed mods as you went instead of pouring a bunch on bullsh*t on it from the get go. Shows how much you care for your equipment and new/old vewers and the fact your not just a cashed up bloke blowing it all. Buy the way, that grey singlet really shows off your "nice rack mate" 😉😂

Great job. Looks awesome Gir d as solo camping

Looks factory finish. Well done Ronnnie

This is so wikid!! makes me want to go and by one. Nice Rack Mate! You have done such a nice job and the thought and care into the planning is spot on

G'day Ronny, Mate I really like the White & Black theme you are developing, it look's great with nice clean lines. The Troopy just pop's without the need for bling etc & the design of the Gull Wing Hatches is one that I have not seen before, but you can tell by just looking at them that they are well thought out & being able to swap them back out with no holes is a winner in my book. Stay Safe Out There Mate, Steve.

It’s so great that you can sit inside and work comfortably, as well as being able to stand up to stretch out! Those struts do well too being able to hold up with the weight, and it’s a nice rack mate - loving the split Maxtrax, makes it look a treat being even.

I'm currently in the middle of making my discovery 1 a pop up roof aswell.

I'm really digging those Gull Wings. Probably the best set up I've seen, and I would definately be getting some now for my Jeep Cherokee .. BUT! it does me no good cuz I'm in Canada

How do you like my awning... My Christmas present was on its way but then they decided to send it to Ronny instead. Influencers are more important than customers. Still the best awning around, pity I didn't have it for my trip over new years

great run down as always

Awesome work Ronny 🤙💪🍻 those gullwings are sick ....but love the seats, comfort comes first 🤙💪

So good to see other brands being used! Another cracking video. Nice Rack Mate!

love the build mate keen to see how it all turs out and am really wanting to build a troopy myself one day with hopefully a "nice rack mate"

That racks a head turner, as is the troopy very jealous!

Loving this new editing style

Dam that troopy looks sick, cant wait to see it on the east coast. Its also great to see quality Australian products being used on the build, highlighting some of the amasing work people are doing. That's a nice rack mate, but i reckon it would look better on an Land Rover 😜. Though i would have to make some custom brackets to get it to fit on the Perentie.

Loving the videos man, been build a Suzuki SQ625 and love every moment of it, also nice rack mate big believer of the low profile look 🤙

WISH youd make these for the y61 patrols. These would sell SO well

Love the roof rack but it won’t fit a nav kingcab 😂😂😂🎉

Troops Virgin just bought my first Troopy hope to do some of these mods one day. Favourite mod is the Awning, would look great on that roof rack. Thanks Big Buddy.

It looks very neat, it blends in more than the other brands out there. It looks factory.

Mate that's a sick setup 👌

ive never seemed to be able to pinpoint a purfect roof set up but i think this works really well, nice rack mate.

Wish we had these in the US.

The best part about the roof conversion is that you can open it and close it from the inside with no need to get out of the vehicle on a wet / cold day. Never seen that on any other conversion.

That’s one sexy looking roof conversion Ronny!!! Well made and simply and I must say NICE RACK MATE!!!

Love those gull wings, nice addition

Just bought a second hand roof rack recently and a guy once said to me “nice rack mate” and I go “thanks it’s shit, I’d really like the one Ronny has on his troopy looks sick” then ol mate walked off, weirdest night at the pub I tell yea

PARTY!!!….this reminds me of you and Sam eyles conversation on “party ice” 🤣🤣

Looks good but I see rust in the future for this car

LOOK GREAT SETUP AS DO WELL

Thats great troopie mate

lucky to get troppy's ,LC 300, 70 series wagon all diesels, we get no good wagons here in the U.S.every thing has 3 row's of leather seats, 2 sunroofs ,2nd row ent screens, independent rear axle 'for a smooth ride " luxury wagons , new 2023 Sequoia. TRD PRO but all the fold down seats take up the packing space and is $80k U.S. plus the $15k markup and add the on road , taxes lic = $100k- U.S thats about $ 143k auz ... land cruiser $

Nice Ridgy 🤙🏾

Add a bead seat insert to the factory vynil seat...works a treat.

Even though that’s a “nice rack mate”, my favourite mod is the full wing doors - super quick, so accessible and a fantastic mod indeed. Makes me want to buy a troopy just for that ! They’re called gull wing because front on, on cars, they evoke the look of a seagull with its wings up. The gull wing was originally designed by Jean Bugatti for the 1939 Type 64, some 14 years before they became famous on the Mercedes-Benz produced 300SL. Generally speaking, in the automotive industry, a gull wing door, also known as a falcon wing door or an up door, is a car door that is hinged at the roof rather than the side, as pioneered by Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, first as a race car in 1952 (W194), and then as a production sports car in 1954. There you go Ronny, but informative info for all 😉👍 cheers buddy

How good is the trooopy wave!! Nice rack mate! Builds looking epic

I would love to have a roof conversion for my 80 Series

Troopy looks awesome Ronnie.
