I reckon a few less working beers would add more sense to this topic than a working bee.
but can I put in an order for a new CFS 4wd Camper with a v8 on gas while your dreaming....

I dont think its so much a dream...but more alot of work.

Its easily possible, with the right skill set and knowledge, cause really, when you think about it, arnt we ALL more or less making these "Dream Beddies" maybe we dont all have $20k and up to make the "New" production kind, but between people Like Ben, and Craig starting there shops, and fibreglass parts etc.....i cant see it will be too long and someone will come along with the ability to make the bodies, and really you can buy a Create engine etc Brand new...so im sure if you were willing to fork out $20-30K you could literally get yourself a brand new Beddy???

Any restoration/customization is not far from just manuafacturing, its just a small scale?

Design, style, and cost effective...and you have yourself a Boutique Car Company.

do you think it would be nice to have a bolt together fibreglass beddy? or just glassed all together?

cause if you had a smash just make another panel from your mould and replace it rather than panel work!
