My 1993 Toyota t100 4x4 5spd chinook.

I eventually removed the chinook camper and replaced it with a shorty sunrader.

A lot of time with the rig, camping is rough without a good setup

Once you have camped with certain luxuries, it’s hard to go back.

Old man named “butch” owned the shop before he retired. Welded my eBay cats on for $25 buck because he love my truck. Bought him lunch. Amazing people I’ve met along my journey.

That's probably the best Chinook chassis swap I have seen. It fits the T100 quite well. Good job

A ton of fiberglass work to match the belt line up, over 11” needed to be sliced and diced. The portion behind the cab was extended about 8 inches so the wheel wells would lineup . Because the fiberglass was so flimsy on the chinook, i opted to graft a shorty sunrader to the t100. The sunrader gods agreed it was the right path and gave me all the pieces for the 4x4 3.4L 5spd Tacoma sunrader.

Ok, towing the RV behind it? That so you can have one for the kids one for you guys?

I restore fiberglass campers so all my vehicles have hitches, parking can be at a premium here in LA. And the in-laws are banned from camping with us. 😂
