Builds CAMPTEQ's 80 Series Pop top Prototype

[hicruise55]

Thanks, What kind of dimensions are you looking for? There are more than a few

I am 6'6" 250lbs, I was looking at the roof length today and not sure if it would be long enough or even the width for me with a guest. I love my Simpson III but don't like wheeling with it up top and my trailers arn't always fesable. So I guess in short- interor length, width, and hight

Also am I correct in assuming it more or less mounts permanetly and well sealed if your cutting more holes in the roof, I'm in shape but still don't think I'd fit through the sunroof.

fits the roof beautifully when folded. Very slick.

What windows in the tent material?

Will there be a way to attach an awning?
Thanks

looks nice from the limited photos. You need more pictures if you are going to introduce one of these to this crowd.

nice= no need to weld up the sunroof hole when i delete the 40lb sunroof setup.

net net- 80lbs additional to roof aint bad.


is there an insulation layer sandwich on the flattop portion?

Does not look like they want to let to much out of the box till after this Expo show they are talking about. Would love to see this thing in person but a 3 day drive one way to see that is not going to happen.

I also need to know about how this is going to stand up in foul weather. Every trip we do involves more rain than sun so its a huge deal to us that it be weather tight with the option of a covered entry. Condensation management is also a big one when winter camping.

YES!!!!!

I wonder what they will sell for? I have been wanting to build this exact pop top for a while. Great idea... Hopefully this will be a quality product... Subscribed!!

Thanks for the interest and kind words!
I still have a few things to finish up before I will post up too detailed photos.
Here is a pic of the rear window. There is a simple webbing strap that can be used from the inside or out to pull the lid down. I keep the door ajar to help with the vacuum effect of opening and closing.

"hicruise55" you might be a bit snug at 6'6 but I bet I could accommodate. The 60 Series will have a longer roof bed and that could be adapted. Sky is the limit.

The height added is about 7" above the rear. That's 9" up from the rain gutter

I will get some interior pics soon. I went for a well needed mtb ride today

Any way to mount a rail portion around the outside that will leave space to attach awnings, hi-lifts etc?

 

[ukaviator]

This is too cool!

Thanks for the reply Criscokid, what is the width of the bed inside. Does this mount permenatly and sealed? Thanks and again, great product

Can this be mounted to an Into Roof Rack?

 

[Newps]

So cool, I look forward to more pictures and details.

I assume you listed this, "Accessible through factory sunroof, aftermarket rear sunroof, roof cut away, and from the exterior of the tent." As in these are all the different ways you can enter the tent but are not necessary modifications you need to make in order to install this on your 80, correct?

Can this be mounted to an Into Roof Rack?

Looks like it can only be mounted to the gutters. You will have to dismount your inti rack to mount it

 

[busmup808]

This is what I've been waiting for. This will be my next purchase for my 80.

 

[Kaibigan56]

Very interested !!!! This could be the most innovative product for the 80's yet. Great work Criscokid !!! Looking forward to more pics, ride report, price of a unit and production schedule.

We've been waiting forever for something like this in the states. Great job for finally doing it. We look forward to seeing the unit at OVX.
