Featherlite Project - Ideas & Opinions Welcome!!

So a few months ago I bought my newest project... a 2011 Featherlite Horse trailer with a shell of a LQ in the front. I needed something to haul the 4-legged toys as well as the 4-wheeled toys and I've had something like this in mind for quite some time now.



I've started on it a couple months ago working on it as work permits, and I'm finally starting to make some headway. So far on the outside I've only removed the rear decals.
The look I am going for is very similar to this pop-up camper I did a couple of years ago:

Here are a few more pictures if any of you are interested:

So far I've got the AC unit on (plasti-dipped the shroud black to match).

  • Your vision and quality of work appear to be excellent. Looking forward to future pics!
  • Felt like Christmas last week, ton of boxes came!
    Holy cow I had a time picking out a refrigerator. I've finally had it with Campingworld.com. Would have happily bought everything from Campingworld had I not been connected to jerks, idiots, and repeatedly hung up on every time I've tried to call them. My projects will no longer be completed with any of their inventory if I can help it.
    Ended up with a little Norcold 3-way 2.4 cu ft. Just need it to store a few little things... Gotta nice cooler for mass quantities of beverages. :)
    Also got a 13gal tank, pump, and exterior shower. I don't think I'm gonna bother with a hot water heater - at least for now. The only thing I'll be using it for really is rinsing off and the sink inside.
    Also picked up a converter/fuse box.


    Picked up some laminate for the floor & Got the lower cabinets framed up...


    Just gonna go with some cedar for the counter tops... I may do a bit of sanding and finishing on them once it's all said and done.


    Picked up some clearance laminate tile I'm gonna use for the backsplash between the counter top and upper cabinets.
  • Thanks! I've got a bit of work done and a TON of parts so far. As soon as I can get pictures uploaded I'll post em!
  • Wow looks like a awsome start if its going to be as nice as the pop up. Elkhart could take some lessons from you!!!!
