The problem, with this Fold-a-van is I cannot carry the dog, plus it would have serious side wind issues. This camper I am looking at will be 220cm long 82cm wide and 100cm high internally. It will also become my home probably, as am looking to leave and live on the road for a fair while. So a camper will be more suited to that idea.. To keep it as light weight as possible am trying to source Gabon (pronounced Gaboon) ply. It comes in thicknesses of 1.25 mm -2.25mm. It is also very rare, as sourcing of the timber from New Guinea is banned and has been for 25 years. Though have heard that someone here in Australia, does have a container full of it. It is mainly used for racing yachts as being very strong and virtually puncture proof. Other wise will be using 3 ply at 3 mmm thick.
