Heya folks!
I was sent here by a current member when I mentioned I was about to build a teardrop.
Great resource and I've learned a lot already!

I'll be towing it behind this,


Have a couple plans started but this is the basic idea.



Insulated walls and ceiling, 4' x 8' base on a Harbor Freight Trailer. I welded the beejezus out of it after squaring it up nicely.
Working out a couple issues on the car, just built a brand new motor for the 30 year old kit car I put together over the last 3 years.

See you in the build threads!

Hello and Welcome.

Love the ride. Can't wait to see your build too.

That is one fun looking car, a teardrop will look great behind it.

Always fun to tow one toy with another!

Thanks folkseses!

Ironing out the details on the new engine. A valve adjustment locknut came loose, that was fun.
The float needle was full of gunk. That caused a stuttering/ starving at high speed. Took a few hours to track that down.
Quick clean up and she's running strong & healthy at high speed now. Still on the break in period so I don't really want to push it.
Sealed/ fixed all but one little oil drip and a minor exhaust leak. Idle is better, still wearing in so I have it just a touch high.
Waiting for money to clear the bank for new tires and I can put some miles on her. 3 years of work almost done!

This will actually be my "daily driver", I live in the Tahoe forest 6 months a year working as a camp host.
Only go to town once a month or so and this car will be a blast to tool around the mountains with.

That same money will buy the wood for the Trailer. Time to get busy with Solidworks.
