    Thats a nice camp site. Thats the whole reason I purchased my Series Rover. They just really belong in that setting. I like your camping rig with kayac and trailer. That looks like a US trailer. What model rover is that?

        My first camping trip with the land Rover. Some site at Door County, WI. I know, not a remote location but untill I get it rigged up for the wilderness its only going to see State Park tent camp sites.

          CDN M101 trailer

          The trailer is our newest toy, works great. And the dog was more likely to eat us for dinner!

              ambulance trailer hitch

              there is a 4 bolt hole pattern on the rear cross member, well reinforced as well. I bought a section of receiver hitch 2" tubing, welded to to a plate with the matching bolt pattern and added some gussets. hope that helps. Jim

                    Nice pics of the camp site. I usually have my fishing gear stowed inside with some camp chairs and a canoe on top. I'm going to have to add some camping gear to my inventory.

                    Going camping this weekend at Watkins Glen for the Vintage Festival.

                          what you don't see is a WACO 12V real compressor fridge/freezer in the back of the ambulance...right at the rear door. Bottle opener mounted on the bulkhead next to it, and always well stocked. Probably a bottle of scotch sitting around if one looks carefully.

                            That's a tiny truck. It looks like a micro-machine when you click on the pic.
