Mac's Pill Box

Post by tamnalan » Tue Oct 21, 2014 7:00 pm

My friend Mac McCluskey built his own teardrop camper - it should get plenty of use on the Bankhead trip next year.

Here's a youtube video he recently posted that shows both his trailer and some of the many pretty ladies in his life!

Real nice Mr. Mud. I'm 58 and can't even fold up like the girls can.

Very nice!

How do you like it so far? Anything you would do differently if you build another?

I'm starting to get some traction on restoring my '39 Ford pickup. I'm working out the frame bracing for a pintle hitch so I can tow my teardrop!

Hey Mac! I hope you brought that teardrop snorkel accessory if you are out camping this week! That rain sounds heavy! :shock:

Teardrop will look good behind a 39 ford pickup !!
We hit rain on our way home from jeeping !!

Bankhead will be the test on any changes I would make on the Pill box !!

What are you thinking Bankhead-wise: are you doing the whole trip? Dan and Janine too?

I need another project like the proverbial hole in the head.
But the wife thinks a teardrop would be very cool!

Crap, I need a bigger shop and 30 hour days!
