I believe so. The pictures may be old, but they have recent reviews on Google (from the last few months) which mention their custom camper shells.

Searching for inexpensive ways to enjoy the American West.

Is that one of those Bel-Air Camper Shells?

Any (non-fiberglass related) advice to prevent that?

Hmm... And here I thought using mostly 2x2s instead of all 2x4s was already compromising my structural integrity. ;) I might have an issue with overbuilding things. Any recommendations for a good (yet not crazy expensive) wood sealer? Also, has anybody tried using liquid rubber on the walls of...

I'm seriously considering building a tiny custom hard-side cabover-less camper to fit in the (nominally 6' 4" but really 6' 2") bed of my Ram 1500 pickup with the tailgate closed. My plan is to build a wood frame out of 2x2s and sideways 2x4s with rigid foam insulation and plywood sheathing. I...

I like the Capri Cowboy quite a bit, but I wish it were a bit narrower. Still, it's on my short list along with this little fellow or something like him.

Those Tufport units are interesting. They are basically empty shells, so good for customizing, although I suppose some strong adhesives would be required as you don't want to drill into the fiberglass. The custom popup is amazing and certainly better quality than I would be able to build. Very...

Thank you for the suggestion. I have looked at both the Northstar Vista you linked and the Travel Lite Rayzr, but they aren't very low-profile (both are full standing height inside) and they are also rather wide (90" for the Vista and 86" for the Rayzr.) They are nice units, but they are a bit...

I have it in my head that I want a simple, low-profile, hard-side, slide-in truck camper without a cabover. I don't have the truck yet (I sold my last one a few years ago and haven't replaced it yet), so the exact dimensions of this box are not set in stone. No bathroom will be needed as a...
