	Another of those postings that should sink to the bottom by the end of the weekend. I know it is not a retro car, but it is good engineering,building and a place to learn from others when you are contemplating making something, even as simple as a speaker enclosure. However, not an American VW product, but rather an ingenious build, throwing a big fat "bird" at winter and bad weather. Some of you know "Jackdaw/DeliDave " on here, or on the Delica forums. He is a bit of a serial teardrop trailer builder, and mentor to many. He decided to build his latest creation inside the donor that is to be the chassis for the teardrop trailer....... Here is the link to the build, untill yesterday, when the new trailer was birthed . BUILD THREAD By means of a taster.....

If it's half as good as that one, I want it ;D Mate, I do believe the old one is going onto the market soon as this one takes its first steps. It has its own build thread on the www.tcgb.freeforums.net site. I know it was camping out last weekend. Keep in mind these are a lot cheaper to build than to buy, but they still do not get into the market cheaply. This is Thypod he built in 2008...... www.tcgb.freeforums.org/jackdaws-thypod-2008-t14.html THEN REBUILT IN 2009 !!! This is a lovely caravan. www.tcgb.freeforums.org/jackdaws-thypod-2009-t15.html And the now famous Coppertop he built for his daughter in 2009. www.tcgb.freeforums.org/jackdaws-coppertop-t25.html

	I just read your mate's build thread - phenominal stuff - how he built that teardrop inside another caravan is beyond me Good progress on yours too Rian, look forward to seeing it finished.
	Currently driving a '68 Karmann Ghia as my daily. Don't ask about previous cars - there have been way too many and I stopped counting at 160!

	Read it as well, love these tear drops caravans. Would love to think I could build one after my I finish my current restoration of my classic mini, and then have it tow it! but it's a bee in my bonnet

	looks about the same as modifying a car in a council garage, i remember the days when it would have been pure luxury to have a whole garage to myself even if it was half a mile from any power or water.
	Volvo back as my main squeeze, more boost and some interior goodies on the way.

Hi Mate, Been watching you on TTT&TT Love the combo, as well as some of the detail and speed with which you built. You should really add the build as a build thread to the "Readers other Modifications" I am sure it will impress and inspire a few guys here too, maybe even get a build inspired.
