sheep camp

[hdbikercouple]

how about getting an 3/4 or 1 ton old truck. remove bed and cab. and put a hitch on the front . i've seen many old farm wagons made this way.

I already found that site, but just about anytime someone starts calling things antique the gets rather high. They also make a reproduction sheep camp that looks pretty nice. For about $12,000. Thanks

Anybody know a good source for reletively inexpensive rubber tire wagon running gear?

Thanks

Nevadan,
Did you see that site also sells plans to build a sheep camp?

Here ya go.. Go search the old Craigslist. 5th wheelers can be bought reasonable if you don't mind doing some mending. And of course you need the proper accesories.

With just a little bit of thought and maybe a slightly longer wagon you could build an extremely well insulated living area with all the conveniences.

jobsite trailers go for like $500 round hear... ya they been beat to he11 but what do you care, it has solid floor with Ibeams and at least 1 or 2 sets of axles. just move one to the front and some stearing.

Nevadan,

check out the site I've attached. The only catch is that they're out of Lockney, Tx. I can relate with the feel and want of an actual sheep camp or wagon. My dad has has an old converted farm or cotton wagon converted to a covered wagon. Works well on the week long trips he goes on. Good luck.Midwest Buggy | Sheepherding Wagons

Hay wagons, chopper boxes, gravity boxes all use the same kind of wagon gear. It's not all that expensive new for just the gear, especially considering the tires will be new and the gear will be tight so it will track better on the road.
