Longmountain Sled Dog Team

The Dog Truck en dog Trailer of the LongMountain Sleddog team in the Netherlands.

This is our little truck a Nissan Navara 4x4 Diesel (EU version of the Frontier) with a homemade dog box that can hold up to 8 dogs. We have six dogs, 2 Siberian Huskies and 4 Alaskan Huskies.

The picture was taken in the north of Norway and it is the Ofotfjorden you see behind the car.

Ford F-350 1997 Powerstroke Diesel.

The box holds 12 dogs and is made of Corapan 25mm isolated sandwich panels. Spacious storage room in the back.

Total weight of the box is just 325kg, leaving us 825kg payload.

The truck is fitted with HID moose lights, LED side and tail lights.

Thanks to my dad who helped me all the way building it.

My dad re-fitted the flat bed he built for my '72 Chevy back in 1997. The dog box was also built that year. It is constructed of angle iron and 1/2" plywood. The doors are re-enforced on the insides with heavy duty aluminum. There's room for my sled, gear and dog food in the tunnel between the rows of boxes.

The dog box has new lights for brake and turn, and the flatbed is outfitted with super bright led lights. Wyoming bucking horse mud flaps really dress it up, and will keep the mud and slush off my snowmachine trailer.
