Hi guys,
I am about to start manufacturing Teardrops again.
Bigger than the last ones, with solar powered extractor, Alu "airstream" look or all-wood "retro" look.

Claude - have you got more pictures of the teardrop you are producing - When will they be on sale?

Really like the stove you do to
Camping is cheaper than therapy.

I would love a teardrop trailer to tow behind the Westy. It's got to be something small and light like this:
