If I had time and lived closer to you I would so take it and try this out!

I actually got a free pop-up in august even with the title! I had to take the top off to tear apart and rebuild and redid the floor took out the dinette for a couch etc, but packed it away before it got too cold and will pick back up in the spring!
Only issue is its about 14' long closed, or 22' open, largest coleman pop-up made in 1982 so not the greatest for trails, but still only weights 1480 Lbs and is very roomy inside!
After its campable, I will be swapping out the axle and lifting it a few inches and reinforcing the frame and will get some matching rims and decent sized rubber to match the XJ or KJ

The day I picked it up:




Was a scary start...
After top was done:



This was after the dinette and cabinet were out out to make the L shaped couch and make it so much roomier inside!



Funny thing is I got it as my first ever camper and only at 19
It will end up having a retro theme all black white and silver!
I still need to figure out how to incorporate Jeep onto it?
Its just going to be white on the outside, and maybe just add black Jeep logos on the sides and back?

Or make "head lights" and a grill on the front. 7 slots.
