G'day,

My names Carl, I'm 21 and im from Banksia Grove WA.

About a year ago I built a camper from scratch, hard floor hard roof. Was based around a fiberglass ute canopy. Loved the thing put alot of work into building it!! But alas I was forced to sell it because of money problems.

So just trying to see if anyone has seen it around or even if it's on here? I know it's a long shot but wanted to see what kind of adventures it's been in!

If anyone is interested I can post build pictures.

Cheers, Carl.

That is pretty cool.
I haven't seen it, but I will sure recognize it if I do.
I hope you get some feedback.

Cheers
Parry

Carlman Welcome to MySwag
This should be interesting to watch , the search for lost love . You never know it may just turn up stranger things have happened .
Pity it didnt have a MySwag sticker on it then it would stand out in the crowd .

G'day Carl,
Where abouts was is it sold? Locally or not?
Certainly will recognize it if spotted. Looks like a great build

Was sold in Alexander Hieghts Wa mate. Cheers!

Carl, you got any more photos of the layout etc. I haven't seen it around but would like to see more of how the setup worked for you.

Cheers,
Burnsy

Carlman · « **Reply #7 on:** February 18, 2012, 04:02:37 PM »

Don't have many photos but the door for the storage compartment has 2 shelves on it for cooking and so on. Inside the bedding area are curtains and interior lights.

It runs on 33s, leaf sprung with 1450 kg springs (doesn't way near that), offroad hitch, alko electric brakes and wind down stabis.

Wanted to keep it simple, storage and a place to sleep.

G'day & Welcome Carl.

So, are you back into a camper?

Carlman · « **Reply #9 on:** February 19, 2012, 10:43:05 AM »

Nah mate not currently, I do wish to purchase an old jayco dove or something and convert it though.

Carlman · « **Reply #11 on:** February 19, 2012, 01:27:37 PM »

Not the wagon, I have a 1997 GQ coil cab diesel with canopy at the moment, will be selling shortly to go back to a wagon, need the extra seats.

Hi Carl, welcome to My Swag.
Hope you manage to track down the old camper. It's always nice to know what happens to something that you have put some much work and love into.

Welcome Carl.
Haven't seen that one.
We were almost neighbours, we were living in Tapping for 7 years.

The one and only.

But no Surf anymore, I have grown to a LX470.
