Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

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

~All stainless steel screws: will not tarnish or rust

There are pictures on Ebay. I'm asking $1600

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

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... !!!

Any takers at $1,199?

Dan

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?

Dan

...do not give it away...I am a firm believer in getting what you haveta have outta something...everybody wants money for nothing and their chicks for free..stick to your price

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.
