Thanks for your warm welcome !
My biggest problem will probably be that you dont have adapted the metric system on your drawings ! Anyway standardsize 8*4 is the same here in europe form the boards :thumbsup:

Ya men Hey, hu store da till? (can't spell it, but can pronounce it). Welcome to the forum, from probably the only first-generation Swede on the board. When I was in Sweden, I never saw a pick up truck, much less, a teardrop trailer. I do have a question, how do you intend to enter your trailer, if the doors are on the side? Fill us in on what your plans are. Also, take pictures, we love pics. Just where are you located in that great, old, Viking land? The farther north you are, the colder it gets, as I remember. Again, welcome to this group, ask questions, we provide answers, and when you get it built, come on over and visit our Gatherings.

Welcome to the forum.

This guy is close to you. It looks like only two fingers distance on the map.
This is a really pretty one in Norway.

Well, i live as far south we can get in this country and it is -15 C cold here. My intention is to bild a teardrop exactly as the one on this site (2 sidedoors etc), but not use the chassie. The pick up I will use is a very rare Volvo from the 50ies. It loock like a chevy -49 but only maybe 60% of its size...
