Our Little Bastard conversion shows the future way of building motor homes. Gone are the times when a motor home had a plywood floor, metal frame, ply internal cladding and 1 to 1.5mm fibreglass skin.
 
The future is called composite panel shell (sandwich construction).
 
What is a composite panel?
 
A 2.5mm thick, gel coated outer layer, bonded to a 20 to 35mm thick insulating foam, finished off with a 2.5mm thick inner fibreglass layer. The result is a tough, weather proof shell with unseen insulation properties.
It's non de-laminating, easy to repair and not to forget, lightweight construction.
Our panels are bonded together with SIKA products and the internal edges are reinforced with fibreglass matting. The floor panel (24mm thick) is bonded to a galvanised support structure. The panels we use for our motor homes are Queensland made and backed by a 10 year manufacturers warranty. Last but not least, the panels can be manufactured in any automotive colour to match your vehicles colour.

The standard equipment of the Little Bastard

 

Because all our Little Bastards are individually built to your order, there is no standard equipment to be listed.
It's the same as choosing an architect to design your home. You tell us what you need, we will build it for you.
Or, you tell us your budget and we show you what you can get for your money. Full conversion prices excluding the vehicle range from A$49,000 to A$85,000.
