Well inspired by this thread on trailers. https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/036508.html
I got thinking and thought I wonder if anyone had thought of a poptop camper trailer with canvas sides made out of a Fiero. So I photoshopped one for a look.

Pretty cool, Jim! If it has cable TV, a jacuzzi tub, and room service I might be able to talk Rie into it!

Thats cool! Nice photoshop work. I want a prototype by 2004. Just kidding of course. Would be a neat project though.

Hmmmmm.....might get real hot in there? You may need some side scoops to cool it off.

Well we could install a tv with a cable hanging out of the roof as an ariel, punch a few holes in the roof so it fills full of water and feed her a curry, and I am sure you could provide all the servicing she needs.

Look pretty good Jim, and strikingly similar to a crude photoshop I made of my coupe while visualizing my Fiero Trailer:

Hmmmm... Now I'm going to have to rethink my trailer... That looks pretty good! But that extra set of wheels would make it a pain in the ass when making tight turns and one set of them was sliding instead of rolling.

LOL! I love it When are we going to see the "real thing" Aus?

It's kind of like combining the normal "back half" concept I was working with, with a "sleeper" style like wkayl built awhile back!

Looking for Fiero posters?

...and for some reason, I just couldn't resist (must've been the colors or the shading that got me thinking )

Yeah I thought about that, I wonder if you could retain the steering on the front wheels and allow them to turn when the trailer is turning in a tight circle?

On the turning issue you could also make each wheel revolve individually busing the the Fiero stub axles instead of conventional trailer axles. Kinda like an LSD concept really.
