So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?
I saw these threads in some of the other Open Roads RV Forums, but didn't see one for TCs. I'll start... I installed Interior LED puck lights and a 12v power outlet.

Finishing the yard so I can free up funds to build the new body for my camper.
Yeah, doing a ground up rebuild/remodel, the old girl's frame has been damaged too many times and repairs are near wall-off projects, so I got a set of blue prints to make the mark 2 bigger and better, while keeping the classic look as much as possible (gonna likely mix the original aluminum with some filon).
The original KIT will supply alot of materials for the new KIT (keeping the badging and as much of the KIT look as possible, down to recycling the interior wall board, though on a far beefier frame.
The new camper will likely be at closer in weight to some of her successors than the original 2200lb camper she started out as due to things like going to a 2x lumber frame, instead of the 1x that she originallly was built with (and why she suffered frame failures in several spots).
I have a thread that was my starting spot for plotting out some other changes I am planning on trying to make, including building my own version of a snap n nap from the Amerigos/Kamp Kings for the rear, since she'll be reborn as a side entry unit.
