Looking at the internal aluminium "framing". Wondered if it being 5mm it would provide it's own structural integrity without framing but if using a roof tent I suppose roof flex would have ensued. Any calculations done or was it over engineered as best you can within a weight limit?
I use this site as a source of ideas and themes for a website I moderate (Hopefully I contribute back). I'm merely a holidaying, weekending trailer tent user but one of our correspondents has a Sankey project on the go at the moment.
He started off with a Sankey trailer and an old Dandy. I think the original intent was just to drop the de-wheeled Dandy upon the Sankey subframe but the subframe wasn't wide enough so:

And this also morphed.

Apparently it will be it will be getting attached to a Disco and be used for viewing rallies.
If you're interested I'll post more pictures as it all comes together.

yes it would do without a frame but then you need to line it out and fix things to it
