New to the teardrop trailer scene and just bought one this weekend. Cannot figure out how to post pictures.

Welcome airjetmech. And if you live in Victoria, as does Greg M, I plead with both of you to find any excuse to take your teardrop out as often as you can and post lots of pics! I had a girlfriend in Victoria and my Godfather before his passing. Spent a lot of time there - thought about moving at one point. Flat out beautiful place!

Go have a bite to eat at Howie Siegel's restaurant Pag's (Pagliacci's) for me - I'll live vicariously through you.:thumbsup:

Image to the playground AJM. (lazy typer) :lol: Happy to have you aboard. As the man says we need lots of pictures....

So, Make your pictures about 600 wide and jpg. Then put them in your personal gallery by clicking on import and browse. When that is done---in a separate window, because it is easier, click on the thumbnail and copy the resulting url address. Switch to your post and click Img, right click and paste, click on Close tags. That should get you there.

You can also open a picture hosting site such as Photobucket. They will size your pictures for you, then you post to here. Photobucket allows you to click on Img code and paste directly here. Not sure about the others.

Enjoy

Sorry for the delay in response. I picked it up in Surrey British Columbia off Craigslist. Had no intention of buying it but could not pass it up when I got there. Seems to be homemade but nicely finshed. The kitchen area is an add on that allows for more space inside which I have not seen on another teardrop so far. It is also 5 feet wide. I have since painted the fenders and roof vent blue to match my Honda Civic, which I will tow it with, untill I get my 32 Ford roadster driveable.

Hello Victoria people. I'm a sailing person who recently sold my truck, in which I used to sleep in in out of town regattas, and bought a classic car, a '56 Ford Sunliner. Needless to say, not so great for sleeping in.

So I'm interested in teardrop trailers, and will probably pick one up eventually, but have to pay off the damn car first.

So I'm interested in renting a teardrop for a few regattas. They don't seem to be available to rent commercially, so am wondering if any of the Victoria people are interested in renting theirs? Just installed a class II hidden hitch on the car.

Mine's not finished yet, so not really. If you want to see it though, come on by. There's also build pictures in my album if you're thinking of going that route.
