Re: Out the Back.
Well Richard, i think i am on my third beer before I found this new section on the forum. 
It has been a big weekend trying to finish TDno2 at my mates place. All week I had been trying to finish the spray painting but kept finding little problems that needed fixing (not to mention runs).............now it looks OK. Final assembly is now almost complete so a couple of beers are well deserved. Even fitted in time to be dragged around the Canberra Show last night by my two teenage daughter................or was that my wallett that was dragged around
take care
Ken

Re: Out the Back.
Thanks guys, As Reddo knows there is a story behind my teardrop being called 'The Black Duck' but that is a story for around the campfire sometime. The new teardrop should be called 'Scrooge' as it is being paid for by my mate who is a dutchman..............it is called recycling by some
Painting is now finished, it didn't go up in flames when I connected the battery and rego should be next week.
It was built as a project and is for sale. The workmanship is better than TDno.1 but only because we had a better idea what we were doing.

Re: Out the Back.
Hi Richard, I have not met your wife but she is obviously a lady with excellent taste
Now Linda, where would you like your teardrop delivered to and what colour would you like the flash on the side ??
