Holy cow!! LOVE the build.

Except that Flower Power van looks a little too fancy to pull it behind. Maybe something older and "not so nice" looking. ;)

Cracked me up when I saw the vise grips for the handle on the sink.

Man I love the scale bong

I'm thinking the Gurgel will make the best tow rig. But first I gotta hit the dollhouse aisle.

Whatcha need? Trailer Trash Barbie?

microgoat · 02-13-2010, 05:57 AM

Raised the ride height 1/2 inch

Big propane cylinder for those extended stays. Installed duct tape.

Made the door...

... and it opens

Groceries in the overhead cabinet, dirty dishes in the sink

Taillights (still unpainted) are Novak crystal covers.

It gets real dark in there with the roof on, so I may light it up and hide the battery in here.

I'm surprised nobody's made a "tiny caulk" joke. I expected better from you guys.

Jester666 · 02-13-2010, 06:14 AM

Damn Stu, you've out done yourself again. What does this travel trailer way:? Nice touch with the duct tape.

NatalieMorgan · 02-13-2010, 07:11 AM

Looks great Stu! Are you gonna tow it at the OSAS meet today? lol

62PYRO · 02-13-2010, 08:48 AM

Your attention to detail always amazes (amuses?) me.

Now you just a need a rifle to shoot some squirrels for dinner.

racerx · 02-13-2010, 10:12 AM

Gee Stu.... what a tiny "caulk" you have there!

There ya go Buddy,happy?.

It's a little late but all I could think of is:

03libertysport · 02-13-2010, 10:45 AM

Lookin' good!!

I just happened to be checking my "saved searches" on ebay. Not sure why this one popped up, but I thought of your build right away. Different trailer and all, but it's cool just the same.

It's pretty light since it's all styrene and balsa. Maybe a pound now, but I ain't done yet

rcjeepbuilder · 02-13-2010, 08:51 PM

So cool!! I had no doubt it would turn out cool , but damn thats awesome Stu!!!!

microgoat · 02-15-2010, 04:20 PM

Painted the front emblem

Poo hose hanging out of the rear bumper

Fridge door

NatalieMorgan · 02-15-2010, 04:45 PM

microgoat · 02-16-2010, 09:49 AM

Potential tow vehicles:

Gurgel

Truggy (will require one hell of a drop hitch)

Metal Fume Fever Scout

Eagle SX/4 (wrong scale but still looks cool)

FJ40 (wrong scale, not as cool)

TTB camper special (redneck condo?)

Scout II (another problem with scale)

And because rats aren't the only campsite pests:

XSRCdesign · 02-16-2010, 09:57 AM

I'm sorry stu...

Its time to build a station wagon. something with green or yellow, and with fake woodgrain...

mangus7175 · 02-16-2010, 10:03 AM

Eagle as the tow rig would look pretty good!
