At last some progress
A landmark occasion this week, a moment which I anticipated happening several weeks ago, however due to work commitments, lack of spare time, value of the pound to the euro etc I only just managed to complete the fist part of the build. Yes, the trailer on the trailer is my Tear on it’s way to the galvanizers.
It seems like an enormous step from when I first started building even if a long overdue one. You may notice the doors and the hatch are missing from the photo. Concern over thr weld on hinges has lead me to believe they would be as well being electro zinc plated as opposed to hot dip galvanizing. I will also wait until the chassis comes back before putting the door and hatch into the electroplaters. That way any adjustments can be made prior to finishing.
In the meantime I got my hands on a sweet looking solar vent. They are used in marine applications and aesthetically suit teardrops perfectly due to their low profile and stainless steel construction.
