Flip Pac project for sale

I have an old style Flip Pac for sale. This older style has the two back doors that open. Started to refurbish it 3 yrs ago. Painted it with Awl Grip polyester paint -Mateo Wheat- A yellow color, took the tent out and had new zippers and screens put in. Repaired one hinge assembly, other side still broken. Completely cut out the fiberglass inside the lid/ bed and placed core foam material in place of plywood. Core foam will never rot and is stronger than plywood when sandwiched between fiberglass. Tore out old carpet on the walls and replaced it with indoor out door boat carpet (gray). Needs crank to open the tent. The inside of the crank got reemed out over the years. Other than that, it's still a very good Flip Pac. It is located in Corpus Christi, Texas.
$400.00 as is, you finish the restoration. Not much needed except, new crank, one hinge assembly to be replaced, and small crack in the fiberglass around the broken hinge assembly. I've seen a blog on here where this guy completely gutted out a Flip Pac and is rebuilding it. So I know there are some ambitious individuals who could easily fix this one up. I got myself a small Wildernest, so I dont need the Flip Pac any longer. Bill.

Sounds like a good start. Dimensions and pics would be awesome. Any chance it was for a full sized shortbed?

I'm in Arkansas right now, but trying to get some pic sent up from Texas. Not sure of the dimentions. But I had it on an 86 Toyota 4WD, and it fit perfect, and looked great

Red87 3 down from my post. He has the same Toyota that I had for my Flip Pac, and if you scroll down on his post you will see a picture with the 2 doors in the back just like mine. I called down to Texas to get some pics sent up to me to post, but they said weeds are all around it and a picture wont do much good right now till the weeds are cut down.

The price is not set in stone, open to any reasonable offers. Bill.

Hi Red, I've seen your rebuild pages. Really good work. The guy I bought the Toyota from that already had the Flip Pac on it, said he bought it from a guy in California in 1987. So thats around how old it is, so 22, or 23 yrs ago.
