Step 1 - Complete!

[pjo129]

The garage is cleaned out and ready to receive parts from the tear-down of the beast.

So...what are you going to build?

Got the junk off the patio to make room for the Behemoth project.



I put the little HF trailer to good use. Thanks, Gerry.

Put some utility sides on it from scrap lumber.


Ready to go to the junkyard as soon as I license it.


The workspace/patio ready - mostly - to move the trailer for clean out.


This will start as a cleanout, remodel. Once I get into it, I'll decide if I have to tear down the whole thing and start over or not. The plan it to convert the back end into a tear inspired galley. The inside will have a queen bed, a couple bunks for little kids (my big kids - scouts all - get the tent), and a fold out table for rainy days (what her majesty wants, she gets )

Spring Hoosier Gathering is the hopeful time frame.

Pete,

Even if you don't get it finished, bring it along.
Nothing says campers have to be complete...

I went to my first gathering this Spring at a Tearjerkers gathering in Charleston, SC with a door taped on and my electrical twisted and taped just enough to get my 12 volt working. Over 11,000 miles on my tear now and still have to make a molding for my fenders and wire the ac . Half the campers at a gathering probably still have a few things to be completed so don't let that stop you from attending your first gathering.

I have come to the conclusion they are never finished !

Well at least mine

[pjo129]

When I said target was the Spring gathering, I meant towable and campable. I'm under no illusions that it will be "done" by then. Heck. it may never be "done". But I know this much, I AM NOT SLEEPING IN A TENT AT ANOTHER GATHERING!!

[bobhenry]

So start a build thread and we will nag ya to keep ya movin'

[indycamper]

Glad you have gotten started, Pete. See you and the family in May!

[prohandyman]

"I AM NOT SLEEPING IN A TENT AT ANOTHER GATHERING".....The motto of a true teardrop camper! Rock On!

[Verna]
