Converting Cargo Trailers into TTTs

I have been lurking on this site for about 1 year. I have a 7X14 Wells Cargo trailer which has been converted into a trailer used for shooting competitions. The bed is a single wide, located at the front of the trailer, there is a closet to put clothes in and a gun rack inside by the side entry door. The back half of the trailer has 4 large shelves and 2 storage bins on each side of the trailer. I have thrown my "stuff" on these shelves.

There is no insulation on the roof or walls. The trailer is a 2007 and I bought it built as is for $1000.00. Since there is side paneling and built in shelves, insulating the walls seems to be out of the question but I would accept any recommendations on making changes. I also am looking for some type of a shower curtin system so I can take a shower inside the trailer, I tried using the porta potty/shower tents but the wind blew it over last weekend. I use a PETT for toilet purpose, have a coleman stove for cooking, just bought a heater by Buddy to warm up the place during the winter.

I participate in Cowboy Action shooting-SASS. The trailer has two sets of axles and barn type doors.

I lived on and managed Blacks Creek Public Shooting Range just outside of Boise, Idaho for 11 years (1998 to 2009) where we hosted the SASS Idaho State Cowboy Action Shooting Championships match each August. I was a Cowboy action shooter for my first few years while managing the range but found it detracted from my real love, long range Palma rifle shooting so gave up the cowboy action thing to return to focus/concentrate on my primary shooting love. Be that as it may, I still have one Colts 38 SPL. SAA, my Uberti 38/.357 1873 lever action replica rifle, and my double barrel 12 GA. coach shotgun. I could never bring myself to sell those off. The 1873 Uberti replica is such a fun gun to shoot. I love the sound and feel of working the lever. There is nothing else like it in this world, other than an original Winchester 1873.
