Mitsu Fuso Camper examples

[1leglance]

agreed, just more of a hassle for them to enter & exit...
I have learned this with my Sportsmobile Ford Van, getting everyone out the front doors is a pain, opening the side doors is a pain.
Thus the reason why I liked the thought of a 4dr.....but I agree with proper design a 2dr can work.

[QUOTE=whatcharterboat;757257]An older model work truck we converted to a motorhome earlier this year.
Windows and doors were already fitted to the work body. Lots of work underneath that you can't see.

Hi Pete.

Hey John how long and wide is the tray in that truck.??

Not sure exactly . Next time it's back I'll run a tape over it. I think it'll be back for a winch and a few more bits soon.

Nice looking truck.

I don't know about that but it is very functional.

What work did you guys end up doing to it?

Too much to list. It was just a basic crew cab with a box on the back when we first saw it. Windows and doors in place. Solar panels screwed on the roof and the roofrack and that was about it. >> So our wheels and long span suspension with incab ride control, big air compressor system, water and fuel tanks, barwork , ladders, fitted all the interior > as in> had a cabinet maker build the cabinets and we fitted them and formed up all the shower and corner panels in alloy, checker plate all the bins, full electrical system 240AC and DC, inverter, on board charger,TV/ audio, 2 fridges, mini front loading washing machine, macerator toilet, rear bins , dual pneumatic spare wheel lifters , tow hitch, bull bar, suspension seat, overhead console, UHF, all exterior and interior LED lighting , spotlights, vinyl flooring, roof hatch, etc, etc, breathe, etc, etc.

I'll post some more pics soon if you like.

I think I'd like having the 2 door and just throwing the kids in the back, a back-up camera installed in the back with a baby monitor, you'd be set, all you need to do is forget about em and drive. Then again I don't have kids, but I imagine if I did they would be the kind you would want in the back away from you on a long drive("dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad, dad.... are we there yet?" every other 5 minutes).

Hardy Hornberg built this camper from aluminum sheet


While not a camper, this vehicle could be outfitted as one


This short wheelbase FG carries a 12 foot Alaskan Camper


I have forgotten who owns this camper! Can anyone help?

Hello, newbe here.

The last FG is now mine, has been since 1998. It's hard to tell from the pic if I owned then or not.

The PO lived in Evergreen CO, he is the one that had it built at Hallmark in Brighton CO.

I bought it with 18,800 miles on it. It's up to 63,000 now.

It's been to Alabama for the Trail of Tears Ride in 2004, several trips to Lake Powell and Moab. The Moab trips involved the Yamaha or towing the CJ3b

It's also been to AZ and NM a few times over the years.

I've lived in it for around 7 months total, on a couple job sites, sat TV helps.

The only repair on the chassis has been a cracked exhaust manifold. I added an extra spring leaf a couple years back on all 4 corners.

Fuel consumption runs 10 to 14 mpg depending on conditions and speed.

welcome to the forum unkamonkey,


nice to see another FG on this site, do you have any current pictures of your set up? Do you have any advice to new owners about anything FG related? Any interior pics? Yes I know we are a demanding bunch,, but we like pictures. What kind of travel do you use it for? and lastly from me.....

I was shocked by this comment, adding extra leafs?? Why did you do that? Is your rig heavy? I am thinking of getting rid of some leafs to soften the ride, so I was just wondering why?? My only guess is a heavy rig and leafs got tired. Thanks for posting.
