That is awesome!

I often see trailers and campers made out of half cuts but rarely do they look aesthetically balanced or right.
This one on the other hand IS perfectly proportioned and aesthetically balanced.

I LOVE IT!!
Do you know how much it went for at auction Glenn??

Here is my effort from many years ago, I still have it. My brother in law helped me with all the welding. I kept the back window of the ute and a bit of the roof for the fibreglass canopy to seal on.

That campervan looks so awesome.

Looks great colour coded to the ute and first one I've seen with the window left on like that. Good idea though
