Looks great Red,

I think you should call it "the road runner" the mudguards set it off, did you make them or are they from another van?

The mudguards are off a 1937 Chevrolet (keeping it in line with GM) but they were overall too large for the Tear Drop.  So I cut 150mm out of the back section length and to get it to lineup 100mm out of the height.  I also had to cut 100mm off the front leg.  Then because the '37 Chev guards fit into the body of the car, I had to add 100mm to the width, then weld in a flat wall to bolt against the wall of the caravan.  Far too much work, but the finished result was worth it .... well I think so!!!

Red, that is a wonderful piece of work. You should be extremely proud of the outcome and may you have many happy camping days in it.
