My Sankey Camping Trailer
Just thought I'd show y'all my Sankey Wide Track Camping Trailer.


Click image to enlarge


I fully re-built it, it has a Ezi-awn 1.8mtr Roof tent and Awning sides. Waeco 40ltr fridge, 75 ltr powered water and many LED lights. Also fitted is a full plug in Gas system so that I can plug in my Cadac on any any corner to avoid the wind. To the rear is a full powered kitchen, Gas hob and elecrics

Just thought to share

Just been Sprayed in Porsche Marble Grey, a Non Metalic Colour closest to the Zambesi D3 I had.

Since the last pics I've fitted twin Yellow Top Optimas, 2 AKT 10w/12v Solar Panels to the front of the roof Locker Box, a Alarm/Tracker.

Inside is Plumbed gas. The Gas bottle is Calor so removable for ferries. The Gas hob runs from the Bottle as do the quick release fittings on all 4 corners. This means a Cadac I have can be used for open air BBQ.

Fitted is a Waeco CF40 Fridge and a Fridge slider that compliments the Engel I sling in the tow vehicle.

Also Has a 75ltr on board water tank in the chassis, with a Bilge pump for the Sink.

Love it! Hoping to get started on my own trailer project soon although

I will be leaving all the fab work to experts, mainly to make sure it gets done, rather than my usual taking about but never getting anything done. www.td5.org

Laughing I only use it 2-3 times a year, although last time it was used was July 2012 Shocked . Not sure on its future though, a few shows to attend this year then a think what to do with it I guess

Very, very nice. A lot of thought and effort has gone into that!

Hope you get more use out of it. We are in exactly the same situation!

I don't really get the time sadly, I usually spend 3 weeks of my annual leave in USA, leaving me with not a lot left of my leave.

That looks really smart. I used to own a Desert Wolf some years ago and I'm always interested to see peoples' different takes on the concept.

I've now got a wide track myself, which is going to be adapted for camping. I'm retaining the standard tub though, so that it can still be used for general cargo carrying when required. Darren

So I can't resist no longer, and a Colour change is in order as it doesn't match the 110 Laughing , thinking of Vinyl Metalic grey. Never done it before nor where to buy it from.

I haven't got mega large areas to cover as there's a lot of individual doors so should be easy enough.
