Hi All,
I've been wanting to do a camping trailer for some time, and while I started a little while a go things I do tend to move slow, but with the recent lock down and Furlough things really picked up so I thought I would share with you all! Not sure how many photos I will upload in one go, but there are a lot. Hopefully enough that I don't have to type too much!
As i type this the trailer is at what I think as the first phase, which means we can use it but I still have bigger plans for it, which will take a little longer to plan and do.
In true form over function style I wanted to replicated a Defender on the trailer - not very original i know, but I still like it.
Used a Sankey Mk3 as a base - which had to be modified. I was a bit conflicted doing this as the the trailer as it was, was great. But after a lot of thinking and even buying another trailer to use instead I still went for the Sankey route as they are perfect for it.
The Sankey needed to be extended so that the new body would go on without hitting the tow vehicle when turning.
