[Svensson]

Hello everyone!

I´m building a overlandtruck of my Nissan pickup.

Last year I went from Sweden to Ukraina via Baltics.
I only used my standard Pickup but now I´m bulding me a camper for the next trip to East-Europe

post more pics of the truck please. what year is it? definitely different from US/North American spec Frontiers from the same age. (I was looking at some from New Zealand which were far different, still what we consider Gen 1, but it was a 2006 model year).

Nice truck. Your English is excellent.

I look forward to following this build!

I'm fascinated by trucks we can't have in the US. Even though that's basically what was sold here previously, the international changes are intriguing. I can't wait to see what you do with it!

Pitures from last evenigs work

Hej! I´m glad you all likes it!

Here is som more pictures from the camper.

Inside is going to be painted grey and put in some pillows to sit on.

I´m also going to fix som kind of watersystem.
Hotwater to the shower is made by putting a 10liter can infront of the airheater before I go to bed.
And the place a smale pump in the can. You will see later...


As yoy can see I mounted some gas-springs to help lifting the roof. Works perfect, yost a litle push and it pops up.
It´s litle hard to get down but I hope it will be perfekt when I place the bike on the roof.

Hej! The Nissan is from 2010. We have three kinds ocf nissan pickups in sweden/Europe, Titan, Navara and Np300. Navara is the one US calls Frontier today.
In daily spech we calls the last two for "King Cab"
Np300 is the cheap one. Fits me perfect becaus I could aford it without involve the bank and it´s not very smart to have a exensive truck when I go to easteurope

Awesome pics! The camper looks super functional, as well.

Also, your truck was once known as the Frontier here, but you probably knew that already! As a former banker, I can attest to the fact that avoiding the bank on a vehicle purchase is never a bad thing!

Svensson, I'll be following your camper build and your travels. Your pictures are wonderful and make me want to get back to Europe and travel by truck overland.

 

[Slicky72]

Great pictures from your trip , I will have to get over to Europe one day. Have you done any modifications to your truck?

 

[Svensson]

Thanks!
Slicky72 I haven´t done anything exepts som more lights on the roof. I probblebly need to change the suspension at the rear so it will be strong enogh for the camper and east-roads.

Here is som pics from a rivercrossing in Lithauen.
The tripp with the "ferry" cost about 2-3dollar.
It was moving with help by the stream.
