Post EB Pop-up Camper Top?
I have seen photos of EB's with camper tops on them. Does anyone know where to get them, are they just home conversions, is there a conversion kit ect? It sure would be cool to have one! Seems like with Wagon style you'd have access to the cab. Not to mention I could get the lady to camp more! :roll:

Thanks,

Billie

They are definitely cool looking. I voted for the Camper on the Bridge on the ClassicBroncos Forum Calendar Contest. I cannot imagine they are very large inside since the Bronco intself is so small. There was one on cragslist here in Denver in the last few months. They are definitely around if you keep watching the classifieds (craigslist, CB Forum, etc.). I would love to see one in person.

Post Re: EB Pop-up Camper Top?
They aren't produced anymore, the local one on craigslist wasn't for our Classic Bronco's and was debated on CB.com that it might have been for an early Blazer. The name on the camper itself is Bronco so that doesn't help ID it. If you happen on one that is actually for our rigs and it is in fair condition w/a decent price you should grab it or at least tell all of us about it.

I'll keep my eyes open :shock: and keep you all posted

Next time I call out to Bronco Hut I'll pick their brain as well.

The old school ones were made by Four-Wheel Campers. I had one on a 75 Bronco back in the 90's. It was pretty sweet. I regret selling that Bronco only because of that camper. I doubt I'll ever find another that was in that good of shape. I might have to dig up the pictures I have of it just to dream.

Post Re: EB Pop-up Camper Top?
I haven't seen the camper top itself for sale on craigslist without the attached Bronco with it also being sold. But, they probably are out there, just harder to find.

(Hijack) Once I'm done fixing up the Bronco, I'm going to look at getting a military trailer with a roof top tent to be used as a base camp when camping and four wheeling.

Post Re: EB Pop-up Camper Top?
I think a Military Trailer is more my talent level vs. fabricating a Bronco Trailer. I will keep my eyes open for a trailer as well. The trailer looks like it is ready to go as-is. Have you seen any trailer for sale? I am curious if they are $200.00 or $2,000.00. Nice for going to Home Depot as well. Thanks for the pics!

Post Re: EB Pop-up Camper Top?
I recently saw a military trailer for sale in a field the other day, of course my recent travels could have put it pretty far from Colorado. I'll try to remember the place and if it's local I'll run by and see how much it was.

I have been looking for a Trailer on the usual places. I keep running into a 1.5 Ton 10x14 giant trailer. I really want one like the one behind the tan bronco above. The tan one is the perfect size and looks hip. The big one I attached below looks way tooo heavy for my Bronco to pull.

Uh yeah... it dwarfs the truck next to it. The one I saw was the small version, looks like the tan one.

I have been looking at the above mentioned Expedition Portal looking at tonz of trailers. I think I found the project after my project :). If you see that trailer again, I would definitely be interested.

Post Re: EB Pop-up Camper Top?
Yea, I surf that site daily to get ideas and just looking at what people have done with the military trailers. It's amazing what people have done with them.

If you really have the money and don't have the time to build, you could invest in a but they start at about $8000 and go up. I am thinking that's not what you want to do, but thought I would put it out there just in case... and maybe to get you from finding a military trailer before I do. flipoff


Just for reference, the style of military trailer in the picture with the tan bronco is called: M100(Canadian), M416(USA), Bantam(USA I think) and military 1/4 ton.

A few trailer I saw that I loved . . .

The AT Trailers are amazing but the pricing is out of control.

I have those Bronco Trailers, and a few more I'll post up, in a album and they've been my inspiration and idea generator for what to do and not to do with mine. The JB Fab (white one) is the cream of the crop from what I've seen out there on the web.

I have heard you can use the bed of a 70's Era F-100 or F150 that has the same lines as the Classic Bronco and would be a very usable size for hauling anything but too large for trail use. I am definitely leaning toward the Army Trailer. I will looks up the JB Fab trailers for fun. I like the integrated flares on the white bronco and trailer - would love to do that to mine.

I'm not certain of the 70's truck bed, but I owned a 66 F-100 and the bed lines/fender openings were the mirror image of our Bronco's. Here are some pic's of trailer's I've collected.

Post Re: EB Pop-up Camper Top?
Very cool pics - thanks a ton for posting. You are right about the Fort Truck beds - most of the 70's era are different than the 60's era. I will keep looking on craigslist.org for a M416 Trailer - I think that is the easiest way to get a trailer. I do not have the welding and skills you do Kinder - Your siamese is looking soooo good!
