I've been a lurker on these forums for a while browsing and decided to join up and show you my next build

A little about me,
I'm from Victoria, Australia
A friend and I have been talking about doing a bit more base camping and taking our young boys away more for about 12 months, last week I pulled the pin and bought a single cab hilux tub with canopy on a purpose built trailer, I bought it last week for the pricely sum of $350

It has tool box on the front with dividers, Water tank mounted underneath, 12V battery system with a small solar panel and LED lights mounted around the canopy.

I have been looking for something a little more nimble than my Jayco to get my two youngest boys out camping with me

Immediate plans are:
Replace taillights (they are faded and the lenses are cracked)
Give it a tidy up
Get the trailer registered
Use the heck out of it!!


Longer term plans:
Build a drawer/storage system for inside the tub

The first picture is when I bought it, the second is after replacing the canopy and wheels and tyres

Welcome to the forum, the KISS method is well received here, you're on the right track. Lots of bed ideas here too. As you progress, don't forget the pics!
