Teardrop with canvas backside

[Pgrnfarm]

I just seen a photo of a teardrop that instead of having a kitchen in the back, it opens up with canvas and a door to make a larger "room" inside....would be great for 6'2" hubby instead of conventional teardrop. Is anyone aware of a set of plans, such as from an old Popular Mechanics magazine that we could use as a guideline? Tow vehicle will be my Father's 1937 F1 Ford pickup.

Do you know of anyone who has ever built one? I am so intrigued by it!

I don't know who the owner was or if they are a member of this forum but this was (I think) home built. If not from scratch it was fully restored. I chatted with them briefly at the Tearjerkers' CRA2015 gathering in Spencer, Indiana last summer. Perhaps someone here can help you get in touch with them?

Saw one in person in Michigan last month. There was a vintage camper show where we happened to be camping.
