I love the Fwc's But we don,t Get them over here , to ship one would be around $4000,

I want to build a similair thing , sort of cross between an Fwc and a phoenix
I have a lwb Nissan patrol wagon so im thinking something like this pic of a jeep conversion
only taking out the rear door windows as well,welding the rear passenger doors closed to create a style side look , it would be open from the front seats into the camper if you can imagine that . So anybody know the wall thickness of the alloy frame , 0.040 wall 1" x 1" on most of the frame ?

1" x 1" sounds right to me. If it is not that it is only a few mm different.
