Hey Bill,
Welcome to the forum... your teardrop build is coming along nice.
Hey, for those of you guys that are thinking about building your own wooden fenders, Bill has wooden fenders on his teardrop. Check them out in his album here...

He's been done almost two years--he just didn't post the rest of his pics yet!
Mike, do me a favor and make it a GREAT day today, okay? Go get buzzed and have a great dinner out! And if you want to take your wife with you, I guess that's okay too,
