Hi. First post on my swag. After much trawling of the internet and other ads, we just purchased our first trailer.
It's a 2004 Heavysew and we can't wait to try it out. Looks like a well made unit and the tent area is huge.

Has basic Drifta tent style kitchen (not on tailgate)
Boat rack (now I need a boat)
Toolbox (welded in as part of trailer body) on drawbar.
Inner sprung mattress too.


Says 360kg on rego papers but i think it's more like 500+
Need a day or two to rip up some ply and fit it out for travelling.
Thanks  to Danbri for the info on Misty.

Will get some pics this weekend.

Cheers John

G'day & Welcome, and good luck with your new camper. Even if it's only 500kg, I'd recommend thinking about some brakes.

Hey Dan. I have some serious work to do to catch up to your mods.
Did the 16 inch tyres affect the drop of the tent at all?

Here she is in pixels. Pretty basic but a good start to work from.

Some mods will be:
Electric brakes
Battery system with lighting.
Some tweaking of the front boat rack to fit MTB's for races.

Welcome to Myswag John and congrats on your first camper.  Very exciting isn't it?
What a lovely looking camper.  I am always amazed at how many different brands of campers there are out there! Yours is another one I've never heard of.  So many to choose from.
Enjoy your time here.
Cheers
Sharyn  :D
