Dan...sorry to hear that you are going to part with this beauty, but as a fellow multiple trailer builder I can fully understand it. It's incredibly difficult to part with a project of this quality. For anyone considering buying a tear, you'd have to go a long way to get a tear with as many amenities and quality, built into a project as Dan has done on this one. His reputation is well known in the tear/ trailer community. From my experience, knowing exactly how much time/ dollars/ and effort it is to turn out a project like this, it's a bargain. "Bright" finished wood like that doesn't come inexpensively....whether it's a boat or a tear! What a show stopper! Someone will be a very HAPPY camper. I sincerely hope it goes to a good home, someone who will really show it off and enjoy all the compliments that it will garner. Doug

Thanks for the kind words Doug! It was a labor of love, and figured I would be buried in it. But you just can't keep them all. Times change, desires change!

Decided to sweeten the deal a little. Now included is a Dometic refrigerator/freezer, powered by either 110 volt or 12 volt. Temp range from 50- 0, conviently stowed in the drawer instead of a cooler. Never buy ice again! Bought a year ago for $675.

Took a deposit on the teardrop last week. Awaiting weather to cooperate for buyer to arrive. So for now, I am considering the camper sold. I know this is sometimes premature. May be strange to see it leave. Thanks to all for the comments and compliments

Wow, they certainly got a deal! No way anyone could build it for that price, too many nice things and materials, and way more time spent to get it right.
