Hello everyone- Yes like maybe a lot of you I have always wanted to build a 4x4 chinook. Four years ago I rebuilt a 89 pop top jayco truck camper as a graduation gift to take a trip to the ocean. The project was fun and I learned a lot, but I sold the big ford diesel 7.3 and camper and down graded in life for a few years so I could finally start a 4x4 chinook build. I am trying really hard to document every little step of the way so maybe it will help someone else or just for a good read. Most of this build project will be done by myself and faithful sidekick Woodrow (dog). At times I need some help with lifting, transporting or keeping motivation high, so those friends and family will all get to go on some sort of adventure when its done. Enjoy the photos. I plan on keeping this post updated until finish project. 1978 chinook "clam shell" camper bought in Kalispell, MT- $300.00 - picked up in state wide snow storm in a field! 1980 toyota pickup with rebuilt 22r 4 speed manual, good runner, bought in Columbia Falls, MT- $1,300.00 towed home (bozeman) Everything must go, roof leaked, front windows leaked, basic fiberglass work, all new stuff, bigger windows. O ya I should tell you I grew up in an auto body shop, so I have some basic knowledge of this stuff, but I'am always learning. Thankfully my dad is still painting cars so he will get his time to shine when it comes to final paint job! Big plans for this one hope people enjoy watching this build. if you don't like it move on and hate somewhere else Let the fun begin!
