Hi Willy,

There's a few of us Brits here and also at Tearjerkers (you will find link to their site at the top of this page).

Are you just at the thinking/planning stage? If so you have come to the right place for inspiration and ideas.

Have fun and keep us posted on your progress.

Cheers

Willy

We live just south of the City in a place called Nailsea.

Funny, we were toying with building a trike this year....... but something else came up:

Image to the playground Willy. You might check out Camp-Cook for someone who has made a chuck wagon.

Have fun looking and keep us in lots of picture when you get going cause they keep the bubble oil level and the mad ones happy. 8)

Hey Willy! Needless to say I'm over here too. There are a couple of us talking about building chuckwagons. I have an axle, springs, wheels, etc sitting in the back yard that I'm considering using as the foundation of my build. I'm still going back and forth on the design. One design would be a simple utility style trailer with modifications for cooking. My other design would try to bring elements of old cowboy chuckwagons with the rear fold down table and cooking box.

The utility type design would be more practical for hauling tables, awnings and cooking equipment, but the chuckwagon design would be a lot more fun.
