Sure there is no way one, or probably even three people could build one in a day. The fun part would be to see how many people it would take, split out the tasks and knock it out.
As far as starting out with an HF trailer.... From what I have heard about assembling them and my experience with other HF metal products I could make a frame from scratch in less time than it takes to unpack, inventory parts, line up, square, bolt, re-square, tighten, square again, shore-up, drill holes, etc an HF trailer. For this project I would probably tack the frame together on the actual piece of plywood we were going to use on the floor to ensure an exact fit.
I remember someone in the group made the complete shell, then cut the hatch off, the same way you make boxes. Maybe that is a way to expedite the hatch building.
A teardrop to go with one of the Monster Garage classic car renovations would be cool. Stranger things have happened on (Reality) TV.
