    a Defender trailer

    Considering building a small camper trailer. .

    has anyone thought about building one out of the back of an old defender? maybe using the 'style side' type tray of a single cab 110 ute? or maybe cut up an old rusted Defender 90 or something? i just like the idea of having the trailer match up like another 'back of the car' type trailer. .

    thoughts/ideas?

    A lot bigger than what I'm after. . .

    im thinking like just big enough for a roof top tent on top but remove the side panels so its only as high as the lower sides if that make sense?

    Is yours the one on MySwag?

    if so that's a nice trailer.

    im thinking now of cutting up a wrecked 90 if I can find one. . I posted in the defender section in hope someone may know of something. . just seems the wheel arches on the 130 tub are way to far foward and the 110 tubs are molded to the body not a separate bit?
