Crazy Cool Camper Build?
I couldn’t help but post this… Found on TheRoadToGlamperland Facebook site. Built on a Morris Minor of all platforms. As they say, “why not?”
Craftsmanship
Not much info on this one. Here’s the link:

This guy does amazing work. I could live here.
Maid of Dreams
Truly a road gypsy dreamhouse.
I won’t even try to describe this big beauty. See the write up from the Bedford Rally here on the Flying Tortoise.
Pick-up Campers
Homemade style from the Flying Tortoise weblog.

Having made a couple custom toppers of various qualities, I am drawn to these fine constructions on humble pickup trucks. Click any image to access the article.

Jay Nelson’s Constructs
In searching for home-built campers, there were very few images on the web just a few years ago. Jay Nelson came up a few times over the years due to his ingenious building of structures onto existing vehicles, compact car, scooter, boat, and now a truck.



It’s my kind of work. Low budget, simple, and highly functional alternatives to the mainstream consumption.

But would I do this the the Vespa? Maybe.

Of course, my new truck is in sore need of a cool topper…
