Actualy i just realised that was 200kg of people or there abouts.
Much better

[KCStudly]

So .58 metric tons, or 580 kilos, equals 1279 lbs. Not bad at all for the features that you have, including the under storage.

[ELM]

I'll guess 1643 lbs There always heavier than we think.

Hi Dale, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Great to see that the two halves are now united as one. Keep at it and it won't be long before you are camping.

[dales133]

Merry xmas Frank and thanks alot.
Im going to put anything major on hold until the end of feb though as we go away for a month to asia on the first of feb and dont have anywhere near enough saved.
I can still make alot of progress with the parts i have stashed away so all is not lost

[Sheddie]

You cant have much in the way of major stuff left to do

[dales133]

Alot of enginering expence in folding up all the subfloor cladding and doors ect.
Other than that im pretty sorted but that works costing me 90 bucks an hour

[Sheddie]

[dales133]

Yea. Gonna cost me a grand or so i recon.
But i want it done right

[Atomic77]

I'm trying to remember... will the panels on the side match the walls or be something different?

Pannels on the side are 3mm aluminium tredplate Micheal.

Im back on deck again. Just got home from 5 weeks traveling around asia so im broke but getting the ball rolling again on the camper.
I just picked up a dual zone Engel fridge freezer for the back of my wago witch ill be fitting tomorrow.
Expensive but they are a fantastic bit of gear.
40L storage.
Id planned all along on putting it in the wagon over the camper so i can use it for day trips and for work as well.

That fridge looks cool. Let us know about your experience with it. I was considering getting that for some time now, not for current caravan build though as I have already built-in a propane fridge, but in the future..

[dales133]

Hey there mate.
These fridges are the best in the buisness, they have barely changed in 40 years.
Same motor type and elements inside the fridge but my modle has the same digital control as the 50th aniversery edition and the duel zone partition.
Other than that this is one of there oldest running models.
I spoke to a guy recently that got one second hand in 1974 and the previous owner had it since 1970 and it still works perfectly.
I know plenty of people with them its why i waited till i could aford one rather than get something else.

Right now its sitting on minus 18c and probably runs about 30 seconds an hour to maintain that.
They say it uses between .5 and 2 a/h depending on ambient temp

I looked these up... You're right, not cheap. One of these will go on my long term want list.

Do they make that rack that it slides out on? Does it automatically tilt like that, and if so, does it have something to stop the angle of tilt?

Congrats on the purchase.. looks great in your vehicle.
