Does anyone make an N scale “truck camper”?

Hey all. I’m looking for a couple of N scale truck campers. Both in the truck and separate. Is anyone aware of any of these types of models?



Thanks. 

Craig.

I think some years ago someone (Road Apples maybe?)  had a fairly crude resin-cast version of a camper on a pickup, but nowadays I agree that someone probably has one available as a 3D printed model.

Step one: find scale drawings.

Hadn't heard that, but then, I very seldom even look at Shapeways.  It's apparently true:  Bankrupt and shut down.

Hi Craig
I have at least one Road Apples camper and a box of their other vehicles that you are welcome to have. Feel free to stop by when you are in the area or I can drop it a Johns house.

So I did remember correctly!  I wasn't 100% sure.

Peteski:  No wonder I missed it.  I might have looked at the 3D Printing portion of Railwire half a dozen times since it's been a separate section!
