Awesome work right there buddy. Would be great on the river. Bookmarking this. Been using this Behrens drain pans, two of them, for a fire pan setup camping and on the rivers. Multiple configs, side by side for larger parties. One pan for coals and cooking, the other for fire. Put rocks under...

Thanks. The big one: enough room where you can leave your bedding up top?

I don't get all the hate. More work for more space. Still infinitely easier and faster than a ground tent. Whatever. Seems to be constructed well. I see so reason why it wouldn't hold up. Wind gets bad enough drop the roof. Same with other designs.

Love this build. You guys should produce these commercially. There I said it. GLWTS

She's a beaut. Care to share the shop name?

Absolutely gorgeous rig and a screaming deal for somebody. Maybe the best deal on Expo right now. GLWTS! Is this a gasser or diesel?

Well this thread was an adventure. No clear way to communicate with the poster. Responses every 3 weeks or so. Well done.

You must like paying sales tax.

You've hit most of the pros and cons. I'll ad that a hard side is so much quieter. Especially for urban camping. Or in campgrounds the the ever present buzz of generators and SXS maggots. Limits where you can go. Weight is higher up so more sway. Also not garageable.

Drool worthy project rig. And yes, that drivetrain is worth the price alone. Love the underappreciated 8.1 Vortec. Absolute beast of a motor. I'm probably worse at project truck than you so GLWTS.

Friggin love that rig. Classic.

Sounds like you've got a very heavy rig. Front locker can be very valuable. With that much weight you can prevent damage to your rear dif, drive lines and pretty much all of your running gear. It also allows you to go slower and not need "momentum" over obstacles. Spreads the load out. Not much...

Rad project. Love those old Cummins trucks! Love that you brought this one back to life! I'll be following along for the ride.

Nonsense. You are being obtuse. Other than your rather dismissive post: "624÷320,000,000=?%. CO death paranoia is low on my priority list." "Anytime someone mentions the word propane, everyone suddenly dies all the time. The guy wants to heat some water - not run the car in the garage and take...

I can't believe there are people in this thread saying "just go for it" when it comes to running a 30k BTU LPG burner in an enclosed space. That irresponsible and stupid. And I'll call it out every time. Don't do it. Period.
