Sorry for the lack of updates. We took the truck on a 6,000 mile shake down run to California and back. Even though it is not torally finished it is an awesome way to travel. We towed my 24' aluminum trailer with 2 quads 2utv's and 2 dirt bikes and put my Rock buggy in the truck. The entire...

Might be worth trying a different agent. I just registered and insured mine in MA and It was pretty simple. I got a camper policy from Arbella, with a declared value. I then went to the registry and asked them if they could register my Kenworth Camper. It had a prior OH title which might have...

After this weekend this thing is just about ready for our trip to ca. We have A propane system and all the major appliances have a reasonable home. All the windows are installed. I'll try to get more pictures of the interior tomorrow, but it is really coming together. My race rig...

Swinging doors in the back I didnt get any pictures of the framing, but it was pretty straight forward. 2"x 3/4" thick maple (because I had it) on all sides then 16" across the short side. We put 2" rigid inside it. we skined it in 3/16 subfloor material on the back side and 3/8" sanded...

Got a ton done this weekend furnace and water heater installed bathroom walls are up. Rear wall/bunk are finished. the bed and walls are stressed skin with a wood frame and 2" insulation inside them. With the bunk being 66x96 and only supported on the edges it is crazy rugged and pretty...

Got the man door cut in on friday. I built the steps out of .080" sheet metal and fully welded everything. I Framed the door in 2x2 .083" box tube. The first step is hollow and I will put a hatch in it when I get a chance. The steps are 10" rise 10" run. I am going to run a 28 series...

Awesome thank you! I started getting some work done on this thing again. My friend had his beavy truck mechanic do full service on the truck. I have to leave for a race in CA in about a month and I am trying to get the conversion process imported in the eyes of the DMV before the trip. My plan...

Interesting. I'll check it ouy

Thank you all for the input. I haven't put a ton of time into this lately, other than working on the layout a bit. It is going to be pretty tight fitting my race car in the garage and getting a reasonable living space, but I am in hopes to finish off the garage so it can be a hang out place when...

I appreciate the input. I think looking at I think going over the current floor is going to be the easiest thing. There is a ton of structure under the floor and the only realistic thing I could think of doing is getting it sprayed which I don't like simply for the fact that welding near it...

I have been making some headway on gathering parts. I picked up a '98 onan 7kw gas genset last night for $600 dollars. It hadnt run in 5 years and after I cleaned the carb I got it running but it didnt put out any power. With a bit of web searching I found that it was common to have the brushes...

The plan is to have a full bathroom with shower and toilet. The living quarters will be pretty tight since I need 16' of garage space for my toy. The sw files arent quite done yet. This weekend amongst many other things I managed to spend a bit of time on working on the truck. Someone removed...

It is funny you mention the ride. I haven't even ridden in it yet. In Ma I need to get it converted to a camper before I even bother with registration. My friend runs a scrap yard and he gets rental truck ramps in as scrap quite often. My plan was to shorten two of them up and make a place...

Hey thanks for posting up. That is exactly the stuff I am looking for. The sleeper setup is sweet. My friend just got me some parts from a conversion van. I am going to see If I can make the sofa and captains chairs fit in there some how.

Hi all. I have been checking out this site for a while now and I figured I'd post up my project now that I have actually started. I am involved in a offroad race sport called ultra4 racing where I race a rock crawler. For the past 3 years I have been hauling my rig all over the country with...
