yeah i've been thinking pretty hard as of late about getting a cab and chassis and building on the back of it for a camper - or - as redneck as it sounds, transplanting a camper unto the back and then replacing the rear walls 1 by 1 with fiberglass composite panels, since i can use the original skin as a template for the panel(s) but glassing everything will make sure it stays water-tight.
