The adventure begins we get a call from the seller after securing deposit and making KOA reservations in San Diego.

Hi Dave! I got bad news!! What Bad news we are ready to come down.

123081

The trailer burned down..nothing left except the frame!!

WHAT!! :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :? :? :? :shock: :shock: :shock: :? :? :cry: :cry:

Couple of weeks of talking, planning...all up in SMOKE!! :x :x :thinking: :thinking:

What Happened!!??

Owner was testing the AC, and frig...went back to the house to get a few things...knock on door your trailer is on fire!!! Fire department had been called and was there hoses on!!

The trailer had been a complete rebuild to begin with hours and hours of work done by the owner and couple of his trade buddies.

WOW!! :shock: :? :shock: :? :shock: :?

We are blessed it did not catch fire in our possession and or with us in it!! Could you see this thing on fire in a KOA and then catching other trailers on fire!!!??

This spooked myself and my wife into going back to teardrops...well almost!!

We had just sold the Catolac DeVille and had no trailer!!??

We had to cancel our reservations and our vacations were already locked!! NOW WHAT???

Panic in Detroit!!

We has also bought accessories: lienens, bedding...odds and ends for a week long trip to SD!!

Talked to my teardrop builder about a new build or maybe selling us his woodie TD...then had him look at Vintage monster teardrop down south....that was a near complete rebuild as well!!

Almost moved on a 19 fter Aljo I think it was a 1955 with bath as well in Nevada High Desert. Thought about it and then backed off.

Vacation approaching..stay at home and have a stay vacation??

Or burn the internet looking for a trailer!!!???

what happened??

Did we buy another trailer that burnt to the ground??

Did we buy another teardrop??

Monster Teardrop??

The original seats long gone...but PO had HD foam precut for us.

Wings and decals are on order.

Will replace rusty screws with Stainless square heads.

Take pitted chrome off ofr a trip to the platters.

Maybe add a chrome strip.....not sure on painting the bottom half???? :thinking: :thinking:

Will take pictures of the birch interior and countertops a but all good.

Fridge was a mess so going with Ice Box from VTS.

Yellow.
Green
Blue
baby blue
turquoise
white on white
white tan

Paint is in good shape just needs a good polish.

.
My thought would be to go with a color or colors (add a stripe?) that blend with the interior...maybe use the cushions' or appliance's color?

Congratulations. It looks like you got a good one! More room for the whole family!

Oh, I just ate...not hungry for popcorn anymore. :lol:
