Teardrop #3 done and sold

Postby Tiki Dude » Mon Jun 23, 2008 3:27 pm

Here is another one similar to #2 but with more bells and whistles, including diamond plate on the hatch as well. I just parked it out front of the house and sold it to a passerby, $3,800.

Number 4 is leaving the shop next week, it has a metal black gloss roof. Pics to come.

It is .024 cosmetic grade diamond plate. Next time I will use .040 grade. It keeps its shine all the time.

Congrats on the sale. You make some really nice looking campers, do you just do it for a hobby?


If you don't mind me asking, who makes those doors, I've been looking all over for those.

Do you have more information on your boat? I'd love to see more on it.

Im bringing this back from the dead, but I've seen these full window doors on a couple different TD builds.

Where can I get my hands on a couple? I love them!
