    ***************************SOLD***********************

    I bought this with the fabric unfinished wedge tent but decided I wanted to go a different way and sold the tent but kept this for a while. I've gone in a different direction and this is just sitting around now.

    Built from the plans in this thread https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/how-to-diy-wedge-camper.604686/

    All my rigs are purpose built. From crawling to camping. I also enjoy a nice stock truck for what that’s worth. Toyota’s are the jam!
    That’s killer for the money!

    what are the dimensions for where it sits on the bed? I have a first gen and would like to check if it would fit.
    Is the frame made out of aluminum?
    What are the doors made out of?
    what is the estimated weight of topper?
    Can the "tent" be entered from inside the bed? Im assuming this topper comes with the wedge tent that doesn't have the fabric? you posted quite a few pictures and im not quite sure what you are selling

    Pretty sure it won't fit. It's just the camper.

    Went from 3rd Gen Taco to 3GT4R to 2nd Gen Taco and finally a V8 4GT4R.
    Sounds like someone should get this and buy @foxrcing07's tent...

    just to ask a few questions someone asked earlier...

    Is the frame made out of aluminum?
    What are the doors made out of?
    what is the estimated weight of topper?
    Can the "tent" be entered from inside the bed?

    I meant to include this link in my ad, it's the thread with the plans that were followed to build this shell - https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/how-to-diy-wedge-camper.604686/

    The frame is steel
    Doors are this material or something similar - "3mm Aluminium composite panels called MaxMetal (AluPanel is another brand of this panel type). It is a plastic core sandwiched and bonded by two thin sheets of aluminium."
    I don't know how much it weighs but I'm sure there are estimates in this thread, I'll take a look later tonight or over the weekend and see if there are some estimates - https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/how-to-diy-wedge-camper.604686/
    There is no tent but if you built a wedge to go on top of this, that is the design to follow based on the thread.

    Killer deal! The 80/20 easily costs a grand.
