Windows and Door are in, not too sure of the door color though.. I think the blank slate is a good place for a name decal I'm working on , or just camo , can't make my mind up at the moment...LOL

Gonna try and get the eye-bolts in so I can load it on the trailer and get out at my favorite boon-docking camp site and take some real photos...LOL

Thank You Thank You. I have to admit it was a very simple design though...LOL
My hats off to all of those that use radius bends and make these things really beautiful with the wood finishing , maybe one day I'll get more extravagant with a build

Yeah as long as a jerk don't come along and close the ramp on me in the middle of the night...LOL.. But I still have the fire escape part of the window if that was to happen

The tailgate makes a good place to clean off your muddy boots .

You must have better camping buddies that I do because my friends would not miss a chance to watch my fat butt try to squeeze out a little window. :twisted: . Nice job how did it jo on the service road.

Well the window really isn't that small.lol The escape part is 26" tall X about 30-32" wide.. The service road went fairly well , The front held like a rock and the back I will have to add a mounted ring up on each corner of the body to get a better angle for down force. I mean the thing isn't going to come off the trailer but I tend to over-do things sometimes .LOL better be safe than sorry

I wish I could see bigger pics of this. Definitely like the rear door . Already getting tired of my tear (getting in and out).
But it'll do for a few years then I'll build something bigger .
