PopTop Teardrop
Posted: Tue May 13, 2025 6:29 pmTEARDROP PROJECT, located in Tempe Arizona
Unique design with both a kitchen pop-up in the back, and a pop-top over the living area for standing room. It has doors on both sides, and is rounded all over for much better cross-wind performance than a typical teardrop.
Overall length 143” (11’ 11”) not including trailer. Overall width 68 (5’ 8”) not counting fenders for semi-recessed wheels. Main interior is 82 x 65 (6’ 10” x 5’ 5”), with a closet/cubby up front.
Kitchen area is 40” (3’ 10”) at the bulkhead. At 30” of height, it’s 21” deep. That’s big enough for the Dometic 3-way fridge in my Class B.
This is a project. It's ribbed and sheeted in wood. My plan was to rebuild the rear pop-up door, surface the whole thing in fiberglass, and make molds to reproduce it. But I'm at least two dozen projects behind being able to finish this one.
Currently sitting on a trailer (NOT THE ONE IN THE PHOTO), which is included.
This was designed and built by a friend, who was unable to finish it. So I took it over to save it from the bonfire. It was just too cool to let it go away forever.
Seriously interested parties only, please. I simply don't have time to show it to folks who "just want to see it."
