Amerigo truck camper

Thanks for everyone that tried to help my. I have sold it.

Not forgotten! I got some photos tonight, will post them up today (thursday) while I work on updates for my blog.

My problem is by the time I'm taking pictures, I've lost the light and while the inside of the camper is illuminated, the snap-n-nap is lost in the shadows by the road.

I'll look forward to seeing them. I was about to give up. Harry

I should actually be able to get you one, now, got the snap-n-nap open and washed so you can make out details.

Thanks for the help. I see they did not reply. Would have helped. I'm in Indiana.

I sure would like to find the parts. I thought ours must have been overloaded also. How do you know what year they were built. I can't believe all of you are trying to help. Thanks

Hey Harry, think I may have found someone whose got part of a snap-n-nap they want to get rid of.

The magic trick is they're on the west coast.

You nailed what I need, I have not finished my box of champions yet. If you can send pics that should seal the deal. I want to thank everyone that has taken the time to help. Harry

Harry, I've been thinking about this and maybe you're overthinking things. Overall it is pretty simple:

The back wall swings out, the bed platform comes down, and the side triangles unfold to fill in the ends.

What is yours NOT doing?

He's completely missing the actual snap-n-nap and needs to recreate one. He's trying to understand how it all deploys in one smooth motion.

The mechanics are really very very simple, it has three hinge points, one at the top of the snap n nap, one between the edge of the bed and the bottom of the snap-n-nap and one in the middle of the bottom of the bed platform.

The example I gave earlier details how to make a really simplified model of the snap-n-nap to help visualize. With luck I will actually get back to mine and resume work on it, at which point I might be able to get some photos.
