After attending the Melbourne and Goldoast caravan shows recently. I have decided to build my own crossover camper/caravan. Not attempting something as professional as a Kimberley Karavan but not I see that there are 9 on the market that I have descovered. Each appears to have some features worthy of putting into my project. The new Complete Campsite, Aussie off road are great but sitting between $73000 and $84500 for a Kimberley, I cannot afford this amount.

So Maroochydore located and seeking advice from anyone that has attempted this project in the past. Inital thoughts were to get a body made but this came to $31000 from a manufacturer. Most of the parts are available through Vehicle components and Coast to Coast. Looking at 6 months to get it done. Chassis will be hot dopped gal steel and suspension will be independent trailing arms on a air bag and shocky. Body composite fiberglass with a half tilt poptop roof with the up part at the rear. Rear door and front bed.

Appreciate any thoughts on these ideas. Pictures would be an additional bonus.
