Tear Drop Trailer

[Rangered06]

I've got some old school tear drop plans that I could shoot your way if you want.

that be awesome thanks!

well after a trip to the old mans LOL i came home with this

not exactly what i wanted but couldnt pass up the price and with a little tlc will work just fine time to fire up the welder

They are files though. I would probably need to email them to you, unless you can think of another way.

phase one is complete took and added some steel to strengthen the frame and added some pressure treated 1/2" plywood to act as a barrier for the camper to sit on and avoid road grime now i can start up on the actual camper

spent a little extra money on a much needed item to make it road worthy.
the old 8" tires just dont cut it and were BADLY cracking and dry rotted so i upgraded it to 12" tires needless to say the stock fenders were to low lol gonna make up some new ones once i get the camper part built.

old

new

I had an idea awhile back to use a flat bottom boat turned upside down as the top of a teardrop like trailer. It would clamp on and be removeable to use if needed. You would only have to fab the sides onto a regular trailer.

Back in the early 50's there was a Company that made mini trailers with Boat tops!

isn't that how the first conversion vans were done?

Why not just buy a kit...... all engineering is done and you still get to build it.

I was thinking it would be a great project to build up a smaller scale Airstream style trailer . I know it wouldn't be cheap. but a fun project

You could just buy a cap for the bed of the truck.
