Hi from Bristol

[warbird]

Hi there, I'm Geoff, Live in Bristol UK & have aquired a 'Little Guy' deluxe (now called the Rascal i think?) I'm told by the UK importers that its the first one that was imported back in 2005. I've modified the rear panel & mounted round lights instead of the original oblong lamp units that looked like thay had come from a farm trailer! while I was fitting the lights I (I hope) cured the water leaking into the rear of the pod from a loose side joint & also a bad fitting rear seal on the cooking area cover.
I did leave a message on the American Little Guy site about the wheels & what the lug patten was, I still have no answer & have found out that its a Ford stud patten.
I'll post some pictures when I can as I'm customising the Little Guy as I'm taking it to car shows here in the UK behind my 1994 custom Chevy Astro van.
Cheers for now
Geoff

Hi Ya Geoff, Welcome to the forum 8)

There are loads of great trailers in the hall of fame, have you had chance to check them out yet ?

It's great to have another local on the board

We're having a little get together in the Forest of Dean in September.. Do you fancy joining us ?

Feel free to check out the Teardrop Club of Great Britain for more info.

Cheers Dave

Hi Steve, This group of forums is a tad confusing as I have posted pictures of our TD on 'tearjerkers' which it seems is the 'parent' of this site, or have I got it wrong? there is also a 'real names only' rule on the tearjerkers forum where as anything goes on this forum! I like the idea of a TD community but I'm not sure I'm going to want to duplicate posts on both.

Hi Dave,
When in September is the weekend get together as I'd love to come along If its not clashing with a car show. where abouts in Wiltshire are you? I'm in Fishponds, Bristol.
Cheers all
Geoff
