Hey guys, Larry Wood, the "Hot Wheels" guy, is trying to get Brian Brennan from Street Rodder to do a feature on hot rods and vintage campers. Send Larry pics of your cool combo to: larryr.wood@mattel.com, and get Street Rodder to publish something we can like! Brian
Cool. I sent it along. I have been waiting for someone to do this. I don't think I posted this here, but looking around for pics, I found this. here is a video "tour"... http://youtu.be/EfbD4bgiz0E
Here is a small project I just finished for it. http://share.shutterfly.com/action/welcome?sid=9AbN2rJq3atKQ
Here's our 1945 KIT mfg. teardrop behind the 55 wag I restored and our 1960 Avion we now pull with the 50 Burb. With 2 75lb hound dogs, my wife likes the room in the Avion alot better than the drop. . . http://i953.photobucket.com/albums/ae18/newfisher/IMG_20120628_205239.jpg[/IMG[IMG] [IMG]http://i953.photobucket.com/albums/ae18/newfisher/IMG_20120628_205252.jpg . last weekend on a longer pull at an ROVT rally we used the wifes Tahoe and gave the Burb a rest.
My little teardrop made by a fellow HAMBer. It's got 12 inch wheels/tires with the rubber torsion axle...way too heavy duty for the light trailer. I think I'll put parallel leafs [prolly 2 leafs] from a 57 ford pickup under it with a dropped axle..I also have a pair of 50 chevy pickup rear fenders for it...might hafta narow them down a bit.
I didn't spot this posting earlier , i was going to ask for a picture of the other side with the door, but realised it's towed by a bycycle!!!!!!!!
Here is our 1969 Ideal Travel Trailer (14 feet) It took us over two years to find a trailer in our area and for the price we wanted to pay. My wife has wanted a trailer for over 30 years! Better late than never! Worked on it for a year off and on between building hotrods. Plan on taking it to as many car shows and events as possible. The maiden voyage is this week to the GG Southwest Natls. Check out pictures of the rebuild on our website. http://www2.n2hotrods.com/wp-conten...-Travel-Trailer-10-1-2011-6-56-43-150x150.jpg http://www2.n2hotrods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/DSCN3733-150x150.jpg http://www2.n2hotrods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/DSCN3740-150x150.jpg http://www2.n2hotrods.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/DSCN3739-150x150.jpg http://www2.n2hotrods.com/2012/01/03/current-project-1969-ideal-travel-trailer/

That pic in your Avatar caught my eye. I lived in Avondale (LaSalle Rd) from about '66 to seventy sumthin'. Don't remember if we talked before. Maybe on the Mighty Mo thread?
