Vehicle description
A large size for a teardrop trailer! 14ft long Rare one of a kind original California built in 1940 teardrop trailer Has been beautifully restored! There are many key features on this teardrop that show markings used on airplanes. The rear hatch in the back where the kitchen area/storage area has many rivets with original airplane window cut out. Both doors for getting into the interior of the teardrop are also constructed in a similar way with many rivets. I noticed the teardrop body is made with aluminum aircraft frame and aircraft aluminum skin. The frame that it sits on is steel with a 1936 Ford axle and wheels.I found some of the original registration from 1950s to 1970s all saying homebuilt year built 1940.This trailer has been meticulously restored.This is a very functional teardrop camper that can be towed wherever you want to go it sits off the ground just a little bit higher than your average teardrop.This Teardrop is very light weight. Whoever built this teardrop trailer knew what they were doing because it’s built so well! Everything has been redone on this trailer to make it functional and safe. All of the electrical is brand new and tires are new as well. This is a true historical teardrop trailer.The very last photo is showing original registration papers that I found. Has a sink mounted in kitchen area. With extra storage. The interior has lights on ceiling and storage cabinets constructed of aluminum. Trailer is stored inside a garage since being fully restored.
