My New Trailer

Postby cs_whypt2 » Tue May 06, 2008 9:16 pm

Hello!!
I just bought this trailer on Saturday, 5-3.
I am pretty excited.
There are a couple things I have to do to it to make it my own...

Driver's side

Rear View

There are a couple more pictures in my album. I will put more in their as I do more work on it.
Thanks :)

It's scary when you start making the same noises as your coffee maker.

Fenders: I will have to put them on, they did not come with it.
How much?: Ummm.....See, I have no place to build one, so I had to buy one and then I can decorate it.
Weight?: No clue...not heavy though.
Wide?: 4
found it: craigslist

Looks like fun... I'm having trouble imagining why that lil window would be down by your feet unless you leave husbands feet out to air out lol.

Are you going to modify it in any way or just decorate? And of course we absolutly definitly positively must have pics of any changes. :relaxing:

Not quiet sure the window is down there, but it cools off the teardrop alot quicker. No husband or boyfriend here, just my dogs and I. :)

The small window makes a inlet for air to flow thru to the roof vent without needing power. Low to high convection concept. During cooler days just crack the window open a little without loosing heat out of the top while the top is closed or cracked a little.

The only problem is to keep the seal in good shape and may be a water diverter over the window like we use above the doors. Saves maintaince and sealing so often.

I like the setup! :thumbsup:

It is just a circle window, and then a cloth over it.

Thanks :)

It looks like a dog dish. I know my dog looks like that when I'm digging out his dinner.
