I built a teardrop for someone and he backed out.

It could be a great start for a teardrop camper.

~Lightweight, easy to tow.
~It is 8 foot long, 4 foot wide, 4 foot tall
~Sides are 3/4 cabinet grade plywood sealed on both sides
~Skin is .032 aluminum with a factory applied white finish
~All stainless steel screws: will not tarnish or rust
~Interior is sealed with spar polyurethane.
~Has full ceiling installed.
~front bulkhead(front wall of trailer) is solid 1.5 wood to prevent any shifting load damaging the front of the trailer
~Interior lighting is 12v powered by the tail light circuit when plugged into tow vehicle
~2000 lb axle and tongue has a 2" ball coupler.
~Everything is new and has not been titled or tagged but have all of the appropriate paperwork to do so.

Still have Tear Cargo - Lowered the price

Postby DanD » Tue Oct 11, 2005 7:39 am

I still have my new Teardrop/Cargo trailer for sale. It has about 2 miles on it. ( just a test run down the Interstate. )

I really need to get it out of my driveway. I lowered the price to $1300. I have over $1000 in it.

I anyone interested? It would be a great start for a teardrop camper.

The pictures are still on EBay

Thanks,

Do you still have this shell for sale?

I looked at the ebay photos... am I right - no doors, no insulation, weighs about 700 lb right now? And what about the tires?

I would be very very interested right now but don't have quite that much cash on me!! And was hoping to go to the So. Fall Crawl in NC next weekend :( but would rather teardrop than tent camp again.

PM me please... !!! ;)

The folks on ebay seem to think it's only worth $1000.


It's similar to what Len does on his bare bones model. Anyone remember what Len wants for that?

Mike...


What people think on Ebay is not necessarily what the item is worth.

I have just over $1000 in it. Why should I give it away?

My thoughts: If I was going to build a camper, I would build it, not start with someone else's shell..... If I was going to buy a camper, it would have to be at least a basic camper with windows, doors, some basic (appealing) type of shelving or cabinetry.

You are in the never-never land in the middle, and it appeals to a very small portion of the market. My take is if you can't sell it, you have to get it up to where people can see it as a camper with some more work. Or, try to sell it as an enclosed motorcyle/atv hauler.... in short, in present state, you will have to give people ideas of what it can be used for.... my short-sighted opinion on things, as I've never sold anything like this.

I dunno - For my baby toy-box I decided to start with an existing enclosed trailer as the starting material. DOES simplify things a lot.

I'd also point out that while I think the trailer would work as an ATV hauler - it really wouldn't be able to handle a motorcycle (at least not anything larger than a very small scooter). At 4' tall, you might be able to get the bike in if you removed the mirrors - but the tail of the bike would likely still be too tall to fit under the hatch.
