Hi all from another tasmanian!
« on: June 22, 2011, 03:27:37 PM »
Hey all, signed up a few days back to research a looming trailer buy and build and thought i should say hi

currently got a roof top tent i want to sell and buy a little wind up jayco or similar and give it a re-fresh

The wife and i are expecting our first bub around jan next year and we have a trip to darwin planned for may and the boss doesnt want to use the tent, fine buy me cause i get  camper now!!!!

I like the idea of rebuilding rather than buying a newy so im on the hunt for a cheapy that i can sink my teeth into

the tow vehicle is a 2006 d40 navar with an ever growing list of mods!!

Hopefully we might see you all out and about sometime

cheers sean

Welcome to myswag Sean any reason to swap a tent for a camper is a good one and also remember you never mess with a pregnant hormonal women so make the purchase while you can  ;D

Yep i have seen some of the old jayco rebuild threads so they have certainly helped in my decision of which way to go
