Like a boss!
nice build
How much to build me one?
FINISHED and took it out on it's first trip this weekend to Garner!
Still got a couple little things to do. I need to play with the hatch to get a better seal. And I think I'm going to put some diamond plate on the front to act as a rock guard.
It slept great! The mattress is really comfortable. The fan worked amazingly well. We actually got cold and had to turn it down while everyone else sweated their ass off in tents.

awesome
How did it pull? Any walking at high speed?
pulled like a dream. even at 75 going down the interstate, it didn't walk a bit. could hardly tell it was back there. not bad considering neither me or the welder had built a trailer before.
wow. well done.
very, very cool!

I think my wife would get rid of my if I started another. Luckily she was working out of town for the past 10 weeks and didn't have to see or deal with the mess. I finished the day before she got home.
Though I did see someone towing an old Scamp the other day and thought about restoring one.........

Saw a few ideas for your next one.
Waterproof it, add a trolling motor, and you're all set!

What did your final cost look like?
How many hours total?
It looks amazing!

I haven't totaled up all my receipts, but I've got about $3,000 in it. I worked on it for about 12 hours a day everyday for two solid months. I've got a couple cosmetic items on their way to spruce it up a little. And I still haven't put a rock guard on the front yet.
