Very cool camper that has served me well, but our family has outgrown it. I bought it used 10 years ago. It needs some minor repairs including brake light, door hatch pistons, cab access slider, weather seals. Includes attachable rain fly.

Wrote the seller. FP is on a 2005 Toyota Tacoma double cab long bed. No affiliation, etc, etc, etc...

I'd buy this just for parts if it weren't so far away,

Damn, at that price it's tempting to run down and grab it, maybe convert to a tapered tail slide in that'd fit my short bed.

I emailed him too. I wonder what condition that tent is in seeing as how everything else is broken

If you need the replacement glass, it looks like someone in L.A. is selling a set of Flippac windows:

I am hoping to drive down there today to pick this up should everything check out, will let you all know!

Well I went down today to take a look and am sadly returning home with out a flippac. It was in a lot worse condition that I believed it would be. I'd say partially because I had built my hopes up and partially from the information I received. It is an older model as stated, I am guessing at least 15 years old. There is a crack all the way through the fiberglass just above the right side window, and everything is pretty well waterlogged. The shape of the older pacs have less room between the window and the top of the flip so I wouldn't have been able to mount my awning in the back like I have it now. I am wanting a project, but to get this one back to where I'd want it it would be I my garage for months. I'm sure it will be the right fit for someone, but I am going to hold out for one a little newer should it ever come up

Did the torsion bar and flip procedure work ok?

Did the torsion bar and flip procedure work ok?

Yes, torsion bar was functioning and the tent flipped out fine. The attachments on the hood for the extra support bars are not the factory stud style, just an eyelet that he is using a nut and bolt on.
