Weasel,

Thank you!

The side windows are custom.
You cut the shape you like, then use flexible rubber glass channel.

The front window is an aluminum Hehr jalousy, restored and painted with new seals.

8) Rob,

You are a CLASS act with the rig and your tow! What fine pieces they both are....the combination together is absolutely stunning and will certainly have people whistling in appreciation as you cruise on by.
Have a fun spin.

Jim, Matt, Tom, TDN.

Thank you for the compliments!

I think it will be a lot of fun to camp with...and if the girls want to stare and whistle as I drive by...well, that's okay, I can always pretend they're lookin at me! ;)

Chris,

Nah, I'm not putting anyone to shame, there are a lot of really nice designs out there that warrant a second look, and a lot of very nicely done trailers, created by folks like you and me.

I chose one of those designs that caught my eye, and adapted it to fit.
The real credit goes to the fellow that designed it way back when...
Anybody here could do the same...

Thanks for the vote, I appreciate it ;)

Tom,

Thats too bad you can't come down to camp. :(

But do stop in if you can, I'll be happy to give you and your wife a tour, and I'd bet everyone else there will too!

Anyone that's interested in looking inside a tear, or just checking them out in general, please stop by.
You don't have to own one, we welcome all! :)

Rob
