In Michael Bozardt's post about his inventory reduction he mentioned making a fifth wheel or toy hauler.

I've looked around and I can't find any examples to look at.

Whenre can I find picture of trailers made from GMC's ?

I know that GMC vendors/Lotus racers, Bert and Faye Curtis(?) were making a fifth wheel GMC trailer.

I have seen a formula ford or Vee racer's GMC motorhome with a drop down rear door. The car sat above the rear wheel wells. I think because the body frame(not the chassis) is aluminum and the drive train is front wheel drive, the GMC lends itself to these type modifications.....Thx, Michael
