Car hauler trailer conversion

[RJ Squirrel]

Doing a simple conversion on my cargo trailer installing a small kitchen and toilet room. The tanks are above the floor under the cabinets, and the low profile toilet sits directly on top of the wastewater tank. There is no need for a third graywater tank since there is no shower. The fresh water tank is 13 gallons and the wastewater is 16 gallon. Just Needed to cut about a foot square hole in the floor for the low end and drain, and box in the black tank.

Are you going the route of a tiny house to live in?

Fairly inexpensive to build, I find cabinet doors and drawers at used building material stores and make the caninets to fit. A used bifold door I had worked well for the bathroom.
The little diesel heater on the floor I got off of Fleabay works pretty good.

No, this one is for weekend trips to the mountains and sand dunes with the Canam car. My RR wont fit in it but this would work great in a longer trailer for car show trips

Built this enclosure on the front out of scraps I had to carry all the stuff you dont want inside the trailer such as the batteries, fuel cans, propane tank etc. and it will also serve as a wind deflector.

I did a similar enclosure on a friends trailer some years back. The compressor, spare tire, tie downs, jumper cables, generator and some other stuff. More room in the main compartment and a great way to utilize wasted space.

It's great for the times you point out the missus is " incorrect "

These flat nose trailers are real draggy going down the road like pulling a 5 gallon bucket behind your boat, I bought this trailer new 15 years ago and have been wanting to add some sort of wind deflector. I had this old aluminum cargo van partition wall sitting around and that dim little light bulb above my head went off and put the plan together.

This project is done just in time to escape the polar vortexes and go drive around in the Arizona desert for a few weeks.
The bed and table in the foreground fold up flat against the wall.

I like it! I'm considering buying a Ford Transit to tow my race car and would want to put some RV amenities in it.....

Nice, I've seen several people on Yahoo build small campers out of 20' box trailers doing the same as you. I was thinking about doing the same to have somewhere to stay when going to the races. A lot cheaper than a camper/toy hauler and a lot less weight to pull.

I see you just using one waste tank, are you running the sink into the black water tank too?
You going to add AC to it too.
