Arts' Hi-topper trailer project

Oh, no, another great idea from our Idea factory. This time, it is to take our tall topper, which we paid many many dollars for (about 5 years ago) and make a covered trailer out of it. Started with a Harbor Freight trailer kit. This is the one with 1980 lb. carrying capacity. But, since this is a car which will be pulling it, we've got to keep it as light as possible. Our intention is to use it for summer travel with the car. He doesn't care for tents, I don't care for Motels. So, we should be able to use this behind the car, instead of the truck, which uses 3 times more gas than the car. We can sleep in it, stand up in it (because we are short) and use it for hauling stuff out of the weather, too. We'll see, how it works out. The whole point is, we have a use for the hi-topper now.
