Earl are those the regular trailers wheels that you just put the caps on? I was looking on Hubcap Mikes site and didn't see any but the full smoothie caps that might work on the regular trailer wheels.

Cliff, yep, they sure are the regular ol trailer wheels.



I did order the 15" Smoothie Hubcaps (item number bhc-01-15).



Thanks for the kind words Woodbutcher! I still need to get the hatch finished up (supports and latched)

I had the same hubcaps from Hubcap Mike on my LittleGuy.

Cliff, they work fine on ordinary trailer wheels.

Very cool!!! I like the theme, complete with the matching curtains. And, that artwork Kerry did is just superb! Congrats on a job well done, can't wait to see it and meet you guys this weekend.

Hey Earl

Did you have to use hubcap clip for your hubcaps? I ordered some 9 1/8" baby moons on ebay but I'll have to install clips in order to make it work.
I hope you all have a good time at LCG. I wish I could go. I would like to meet up with all you big wigs from T&TTT. Maybe next year.

Big wigs? What big wigs? We are all a group of folks with common interests. There will be other chances to meet up with SCT, just keep your eye on the soon to be published 2012 calendar CaseyDog will be putting out.

As far as clips, nope, none required, the hubcaps from hubcap mikes just fit right on. The caps have fingers/flanges to grab the wheel.

Well, as many of you know, we made the scheduled first outing to LCG, here's a pic of our setup. The Blue Yonder performed very well, a few minor adjustments and a little more finish work to do and she will be completed. (as if they ever are )

Thanks Gary, really appreciate the kind words. Was nice to get the Yonder out on the road. The Teardroppers choice was a great surprise, I appreciate people selecting it.

Look forward to seeing you down the road. Wold also like to hear you play one of those cigar box guitars you make.

Thanks again.

Earl,

+1 on what Gary said. The Blue Yonder was incredible - well deserved award!

With all that was going on, we didn't get much time to speak with you and Kerry. I hope our paths cross in the future.

Take care,
Tom
