1977 Pop Up Camper Rebuild

Looks good. How bad are the roads you're taking this down? I don't know about there but 60-80km/h down the roads around here that we do alot of overlanding on and those jerries will rip right off that camper if its only screwed into the wood with 4 screws. Hell it was enough to damn near tear the cap off the taco on the last trip.

You can see earlier in this thread that the bolts for the jerry cans are all screwed into 2x2 stock.

Ahh ok that makes more sense. I missed that somewhere i guess.

So, I found myself daydreaming about camping season and I realized that I stopped this thread with the camper being done, but no pics of it in use.

These are from the only trip I squeezed in last summer. Just me and my older son. He was 3.5 years old at the time. We both had a good time.

Looks great, and your son looks like he was indeed having a good time. Then again, camping and cheezies in the woods, how could you not have a good time??
