Pedaal, don't be :oops:

That would be common place around the Southern region of these great states!!!
Except maybe not such shiny paint....or nice wheels..or..well you get the idea.
Normally just an old pick up bed with big nice rust spots and "may pops" for tires. :lol:

HVM... don't forget the tool box and the gun rack , now !!!

I always have an interest in modern teardrops. But I prefer designs that don't use fiberglass. :designing:

Mike ....Paper mache' ? pressed cardboard in a mold ... very green eh ? waterproof glue makes it happen !!!
How about molded out of recycled plastic milk bottles, like those little kayacks ??? and porta potties :roll:

OK Mike , how about inverting the rear of the TD so it forms a porch / canopy, with a rounded nose it would look sorta' Buck Rodgers/Flash Gordon type of thing ... no need for the "antiquated hatch /hurricane hinge /leaky galleys " Like the rear of my "modern TD , just built in a more conventional manner ...???? Plus gives a convenient place to hang your Chinese lanterns ... it sure would eliminate alot of problems...

by **GPW** » Fri Mar 31, 2006 8:05 pm
