Damn I wish that was for sale now, I'd be looking
there is a stock one in Cincinnati for $2000. Thinking about getting it and cutting half the box off to make a flat bed.
 
Cut some holes for the storage doors and for one window. Filled in mom's attic. Thinking about painting the trim black and I have some gray Metal to skin it with.

Skinned the side of the box and installed a window, outside kitchen door and a storage door.

Installed the bed door last night. Need to find someone the can cut and sew the canvas. Robbed it from a pop up I'm using for parts.

Well I finally got the rear wall and door done. Mounted the AC and got the OSB down on the floor. Now it's interior time. We took it for its maiden trip to the Cleves I.O.K. swap meet. Way better than a tent.

Still have a ways to go, but it's started. I had to completely rewire the whole thing, add new tires, buffed down all the bare rusting metal and painted it, put the old aluminum inside floor down as a new rear deck, 3/4" pressure treated plywood inside for a new floor to stick the new flooring to, and snagged some cabinets from Home Depot on their Labor Day sale. Hoping to get it done over the winter.






 
I'll try to post up some more this weekend. Plan to try to get my bed door canvas on, insulation and slats for paneling. Pretty ambitious goals for a old fat man.
