Default Finished the trailer

Well tonight i pretty much finished all the work i had planned on the race trailer (gf and me race bikes, so this is to get our gear out to the races and have a place to chill between races, etc.)...but as everyone knows nothing can ever be finished because something else always comes up.
5X8 with extra foot of height rear ramp door and a side door, led lights, 13" wheels, got the rims powdercoated black. ashphalt undercoated the a frame and under the trailer. put carpet down, ran a 12v hot at all times line to it straight from the batter in the blazer for an interior dome light and 12v outlet that is put on a switch... put in d rings, fork mounts for bikes, wheel mounts on the walls, mount for my work table, clothes hooks, mounts for my tool box, and tools and allen keys on the door with a white board and a fold down table. Put a coat of varnish on the table, rear ramp door, and everything above the wheel mounts.

Damn bro, you've been busy, Very nice! Should have called me about the powder coating, a company I deal with next door is awsome & I probably could have gotten it done cheaper.
All I've done is made plans & still making plans to rebuild the engine, parts, bearings, ARP bolts, cam etc.

Ya i have a design in mind its pretty simple with angle iron, only problem is i would not be able to use the wheel mounts on the wall with that (and why would i want a bunkbed)....haha....for how often we would sleep in the trailer were just going to throw an air mattress on the floor..(you can notice on a picture of the door i have a handle and a lock on the inside of the door)....i am a bit worried about it getting super hot in there in the sun...might have to install a vent.

I used bunk beds as an example because this is a family oriented forum. LOL.
