Hello from Boyd Texas. First thanks for letting me join this fine group. I have had my teardrop since 92,I built it from the ground up. It has sat in such disrepair for years. In September I decided to redo it and have had so much fun doing so. now a scratch built canned ham is my next project. Thanks again and I cant wait for more ideas from this very large group of people into small trailers.

I had the same photo posting problem :cry: and it is still a major chore for me.
All my postable pictures are in my album to the left.
We made a 49 Chev PU into a convertible once at a Rod Run as the evening entertainment.
Took all day to co-ordinate our team, organize equipment and make a cut marks, so that the demonstration would go smoothly!
It was a truck we had driven to Bonneville Speed Week the previous year.

Welcome aboard mikem, don't feel like the lone ranger on the computer thing as I too sometimes have to get my kid's, and now grandkid's to show Papa how to do stuff on the old computer.
I also tow with a old (49) chevy pickup and I am currently working on a 40 ford coupe to pull my teardrop with also, hoping to have it functional sometime next summer :thumbsup:

Would love to see a pic :pictures: of that convertible 47 :thumbsup:
I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction, the world will have a generation of idiot's.

Looks good. I'm right down the road from you in Azle. Have a friend that lives in Boyd as well. Might have to stop by and take a look at one day on the way to Giant Burger.

Thanks again Vedette. Pain is for sure and Bonneville is on my bucket list. Redneck Teepee, the pictures will come someday. maybe. And elcam84. Yes Giant Burger indeed. We as in me and another broke guy that has tooooo many projects meet a Tator Junction every Sunday at 8. and that would be cool if you can stop by to check my mess I have. Still working on the photos, think they are too large to load
