:thinking: It will help a great deal if you post pictures. Seems like a bargain if someone wanted a jump start. :thumbsup:

I brought this up to my wife last night. the response was a resounding NO!

It's a good thing MI is so faraway. No way for a new project to accidently follow me home.
Holy cow, Rose is a teenager now! Done? Surely you jest. A teardrop is never "done".

Hey Sparks,

Well, I totally understand. The wife flipped when I suggested bringing this project home from the shop to our private home. She "reminded" me that had enough stuff sitting around. Since this is my second wife I MUST listen to her better than I did the first one! lol

Anyway, there is a gentleman locally that is coming by later this week to purchase. If he backs out I will edit the listing. Thanks to everyone for looking.

I think the picture is there. He just didn't tell us which one. If you look at the auction site he gave us, I suspect it's #608 (Camo Trailer), near the bottom of all the pictures. :thinking:

...Am I right?

Thanks for all those interested in this project. I went through 3 "potential" buyers but no one followed up with the money to buy the project. I lost my patience dealing with those people because they wanted to look but not buy. I have other projects and couldn't hold someone's hand through a build. I spent the last 2 weeks getting this trailer put together and on the road. It's not perfect cosmetically but its safe and structural. It's a nice basic 5 X 10 (5X7 sleeping platform). As stated in the original posting this tear was started by someone else and dumped in my lap.

This weekend, Saturday at 10am it is going up for auction at White Star Motorsports Auction in Bronson, MI (www.snowmobileauctions.com) If anyone is interested they can check out the photos here http://www.auctionzip.com/cgi-bin/photo ... nowmobiles

It's auction number #608. This is a live auction so you would have to be present to bid and buy. I have spent too much time and energy and really just want to see the teardrop go to a new home. I feel the best way is put it up for auction. If anyone is interested in attending and bidding feel free to contact me for more details, etc. Thanks.

AUCTION NUMBER #608

I put a bid in but it was not high enough.

The trailer did not sell at the auction. The weather turned nasty early Saturday morning and thunderstorms rained down on the area. Since the trailers were outside the turnout was low. The trailer didn't meet the minimum so it was not sold. I brought her home and put her in the garage.

Ok, now lets put a price on it and more photos of the inside/galley. You will have a better chance of selling on this site. :thinking:
