Bob Green Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 Looking very good. A huge amount of pleasure can be enjoyed with a project such as this. Just be mindful of the amount of construction you make as it would not be difficult to overload the front axle on a 7.5tonne vehicle. I have seen many Horseboxes (non-Luton type body) with built in living quarters that have exceeded the permitted axle weights before the horse is even loaded. Quote

TAFKARM Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 I love this, shame I've got nowhere to park a 7.5 tonner. Quote

Simon Waterfall Syman84 Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 Having a class 2 license this makes so much more sense than an expensive motor home and trailer. If only Mrs W would come round to the idea Quote
TAFKARM Posted June 19, 2019 Posted June 19, 2019 Describe it as the ultimate extension to the house! Quote
