Another FG build

[ferg69]

Hi all, Ferg here, My first crack at this stuff so be patient. I have just joined a week or so ago & have been watching the fg builds(great job alan,selfy etc) Alan I luv the colour youve got great taste.
Im slowly building a camper on a fg637 4x4 dualcab (very slowly)& have enjoyed the disscusions on mounting systems & wheels which i still have to get. Wish i had found this forum before i started,it would have helped a great deal. Im now going to try & upload some images.

Happy to see that you have finally joined Expo Ferg. Welcome aboard.
How has your build been going? From memory, you were going to wrap your camper in ali sheet and do the inside with Nema board.

Hi ferg good to see another crow eater on here. We do a little bit of exploring over your way, border track and such (not in the truck yet) . How many Berth will the camper be?

 

[ferg69]

Hi Skyfreak, you have a great memory, i can remember emailing you a year or so ago & yes its wrapped in ali & lined in nema board, worked very well. I will upload some more photos soon.
Hi Tonkatuff, Its five berth if the three kids sleep together other wise its four. When i started the truck i had 4 kids that would come with us now theres only 2.

Cheers

skifreak sorry, big thumbs

I've got a dual cab same as yours, I would be very interested to see your floor plan.

 

[ferg69]

Hi all, found some more photos of early stage. I will try & get some of the sleeping arrangement for you soon Tonkatuff, I think i read some where you were getting supper singles have you got them yet & if so what did you get, Im after good sand wheels & tyres also.

Regards Ferg

 

[selfy]

looks good Ferg, any chance of a side on photo of the camper on the truck
what toilet did you use ? we are at that stage (bathroom) and there are too many to choose from

cheers Selfy

 

[Tonkatuff]

Hi ferg, I'm upgrading to 8.25s but still dual's can't justify the singles for the number of kms I do.

 

[ferg69]

Fair call Tonkatuff, Apparently 1 rim & tyre will buy you a new washing machine or a fridge or a kenwood mixer 2 will buy you a new lounge.

Heres some side shots selfy

Regards Ferg
