Title: Our Trailer
Post by: gadget99 on August 04, 2014, 09:01:58 AM
Hi all,

I built a trailer for us to use camping and for bug-out if required.

I though I would share a few pics of it from our camping trip.

Here are a few pictures of the Trailer.

Do you have the blueprints of it or some pictures of when you were building it?

It's a Vauxhall Frontera Sport.

To those in the states it is the Isuzu Amigo. Thought with a different engine.

It is dual fuel. Petrol and LPG.

None of the above, yet I will take more pics and explain so that all can see what I did.

That is terrific.  If I had the skills and abilities I would love to build one for myself.  Or someone send me $60k and I will get one alot fancier imported from Australia.

But I bet yours is tougher.

Well the damn truck is pissing me off big time.

Am REALLY getting tired of all the computer crap in modern vehicles.

So it looks like I am going to scrap the damn thing and get something that is EMP proof.

maybe you could pull the EFI and replace it with a trust worthy carburetor?

Yeah that's what I am thinking as a possible.
