The day I got it home. Long trip from Watertown with expired Washington plates All Opened up  Inside looking in  Font view  Open door  The Weathered roof  The weathered hatch  The guy who built it lovvvved silicone  underneath and axle   The Kitchen  A lot of sanding went into this thing... days!  Started the side  Even got the female unit to help!

Added some power and modern amenities  Fits!  Tail lights are all reinstalled and wired and much brighter!   And let the varnish begin!  My old tires from the xterra  First time it was behind the Xterra after my restoration  No more slamming my fingers in the hatch! After 2 hours of cursing and messed up holes I got the gas shocks in place!   and mounted my jerry can holder My gf got me for christmas!  Oh, and also got the roof rack figured out, it is hard to level things on a curved surface.  Annnnddd now I am almost set for summer!

D'oh! I don't get it. It may be because I'm over 6 ft, but I don't see an area long enough to lay down in. If I'm seeing the pictures correctly there is a bulkhead separating the front area from the back storage/kitchen area. I thought maybe it swung up for foot room but there appears to be wiring on the divider that would preclude that. What's up on the design? The size looks good for towing, but man I've got to be able to stretch out, especially if I can't stand up. Scott |

Cool! I guess looks can be deceiving. Scott |
