1950's teardrop restoration

Postby my_jk » Mon Oct 19, 2015 5:21 pm

Over the weekend I picked up a late 40's early 50's homebuilt teardrop from a guy on craigslist. Unfortunately none of the original mahogany interior could be saved so I had to remove it, but I plan to try and make it look as time period correct as possible. Here are some photos of the trailer as it sits now.

Good luck. It will have a real vintage look.
