Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
Bought them both on ebay. Parted both of them (kept the good stuff for myself!). Had to pick the states that allowed a "trailer hooked to a trailer". Had a state trooper pass me slowly in KY- but no problems. Didn't try backing it up!!

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
Using the rusty K20 to haul some wood. Headed through the field after this and challenged the 4x4 a little!

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
We bought some round bales lately that are much heavier than our usual, about 1300 to 1500 pounds. My poor tractor could lift them, but not steer with that much weight. I put them on the back of the truck and tried to balance them just right so I could just drop them off with a stab of the pedal. Glad again for the no-spin I put in this fall. The pastures are very muddy this time of year, at least when they aren't frozen.

It has a modern fuel injected 16 valve Ford 1800cc Zetec engine and can haul ass if needed.  Your teardrop just blew me away.

Here is the full build thread for my Teardrop. I am a bit of a serial "fiddler" I like to make stuff, and like the teardrop, I do best when making it up as I go along. CLICKY LINKY http://retrorides.proboards.com/inde...y&thread=67389 The sides were meant to be Ally clad as well, like the rest of the camper, but by the 7th coat of varnish we realized the wood had to stay, and I am really pleased we did, it forms a neat contrast. The Portholes are wooden wall clock face surrounds, bought for £1 or $1.50 each at a new cheap store opening, I bought four of them, and sandwiched the walls and also the "glass" which is policarbonate cut from discarded caravan windows I tried to add a quirky feel to it, as it is a quirky thing in itself.

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
Thought I would just add this in as it links to my post above about the teardrops.
NO MORE GRIZZ MOBILE...... After getting some advice on removing the Graffitti which this bus was known by, as it may put some buyers off, I have used some thinners, a couple of rags and done 4 passes on it all, soak, scrub, scrub, wash and then wiped again with a good old T-shirt.  GOING.......  GOING.......  GONE !!!!  Next up some polish and a bit of rubbing should see it almost disappear.

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
I love the teardrop trailers.I've got a chassis, and axle that I hope to someday build my own with.
I towed my sandbuggy up to the dunes recently.This trailer is homebuilt too

Re: Lets see pics of your truck hauling!!
Done
Next up I spent over 5 hours with T-Cut polishing and hand buffing the whole van, even the roof, which is a PITA. I must say, it has come up pretty decently, so I hope it helps when it comes to selling. GRIZZ-MOBILE graffitti side polished out well.  Other side done as well. By this time I had to push the van inside again, as evening condensation was coming down.

You cant really see it but the back is full of leaves. I filled it up four times to get rid of them all.
