My wife and I have decided to get back into camping now that our son is a little older (3yo) but both of us want a travel trailer rather than tents or a pop up trailer. We went looking and got some major sticker shock.
So I started thinking about building one myself. My dad built a truck topper years ago from this company http://www.glen-l.com/campers/trailers.html and it came out really good. So I started looking at their site for trailers. From what I can tell the designs are all pretty old school but with slight modification could be made to look modern enough to suit the wife. We really aren't looking for anything extravagant just a simple trailer with a galley, bathroom with shower/tub and sleeping room for 4.
Just wondering if anyone has done somthing similar, or even rebuilt an old trailer. We looked at that too but most of what I found has been so far gone that I figured if I am going to have to rebuild it why not just build it from the ground up to start with.
