    The Half-arsed Camper build

    Firstly, apologies if this is in the wrong spot.

    Secondly, I will just be copying and pasting from another forum I'm on

    Back in may, I had to decide what I was going to do with my camper.

    Here's what I started with:


    Paid $1200 off eBay about 12 months ago, I knew when I bought it that it needed a bit of work, had no rego, brakes, canvas was old, but it was solid.

    We have used it about 6 times over the last 12 months and the time to start making decisions got closer and closer.

    I considered just selling it, making my money back and replacing it with another trailer, but the tight arse came out in me!!!

    If I rebuild the trailer and add a new camper top, brakes and rego, I get a trailer that is made just for us, and should owe us no more than $5,000 when completed.

    Cut off the old box the sides were only 280mm high, useless for storage.
