I am constantly amazed when someone shows a pic of their finished tear, and just have to go through their gallery to see the stages of build. Great looking tear... Very well done!!!

Thanks for the nice comments. It goes without saying that I never, never, never, would have made it this far without the advice, pictures, postings and encouragement on this site.

First trip will be a shakedown trip, somewhere in the area of Estes, then it'll be southern Colorado and the Western Slope!

Absolutely beautiful! I finally have some time to start working on my tear again... and when it is finished, I'll be taking my Tivoli radio along with me, too! Actually, I've got a total of five Tivoli radios... you've gotta love the look and sound of them... plus they all run on 12v, so it's easy to take them camping!
