Yes it will! I just got all the paneling done and the roof hinged, working on the lift mechanism now and then the back bed flip down.

I need to get the fabric still, but my mom is willing to o the sewing for me to save time.

Re: Dirt Bound Offroad Trailer - Build Log

SUPER Bad ass... I just bought an older pop-up camper to modify but this looks like the way to go. Mind if I "borrow" some of your ideas? I've been on expeditionportal.com lately and the cool ideas out there are never ending.

yup! Water damage from having it parked...

I deemed it unsafe (mold) to camp in and tore the box off. I will make it closer to a adventure trailer with steel sides and RTT on the top. Kinda sucks but that was my original plan anyway.

Re: Dirt Bound Offroad Trailer - Build Log

that sucks. have you thought about using plastic or aluminum? still light, but a little less prone to mold issues.
