TD is SOLD.

Thanks to all who have inquired about it. A nice young man has purchased it and is going to complete the build. We're looking forward to seeing him at future came-outs.

And here she is being backed into my tiny suburban garage. I had to move some stuff to get it in, and I'm sure I'll have to move some more to get enough room to work around it. Towed fine behind my itty bitty tow vehicle, despite being aerodynamically challenged in its partially complete state. Mike was awesome and enthusiastic. I need to finish my hurricane shutters before I start on this seriously, but I've already started shopping for parts. Once I've made some changes I'll have an update for you all.

Next steps are listed in the thread below. The build quality that Mike has done so far is excellent, being sturdy, stocky and straightforward, just like me. I'm going to finish it in a somewhat utilitarian fashion, with a minimum of interior fixtures, focusing on getting the exterior sealed and weathertight, finishing the insulating and interior paneling, and getting a simple and sturdy floor covering put in.
