Snail camper project

Post by Griffin »

So I’ve just got an early split, has been cut into a shorty at some stage in the past.
Plan so far is to make full length again, if possible grafting s lowlight rear dnd on so I get IRS and bay front beam then build a camper back
The wanted to buy list is:
Rear of s bay chassis
Early bay beam
Bench seat
Pair of dood top frames and glass
Step one is to make full length

Will keep photos posted for anyone interested but will be a slow build.
