• Two tall adults can sleep comfortably in the camper. A very comfortable foam mattress comes with the camper
• Wood panelling is fitted on the bed head wall which has a shelf for small items. The other inside camper walls are covered with a felt material.
• There is an adjustable roof top air vent

• Doth doors are fitted with inside curtains.
• Inside the camper it is warm and cosy and when the warmer weather comes along, plenty of cool fresh air circulates through the two large doors on each side of the camper

I Love the Teardrop but I cannot drive – my eyesight has deteriorated. It is a joy to tow and is easily manoeuvred. I have not used the little camper for about seven years so it has been, and is still stored in my garage.

Homebuilt by Jono & Nev - built new, never used $13,900 ono SOLD!!

Unfortunately my newly finished, custom built teardrop is for sale. This is the second tear drop I have built and is the culmination of what I learnt from the first van.

I invite anyone to inspect and compare our teardrop to anything else that is currently on the market. It has all the mod-cons such as fridge, 12V and 240V power, lights, inner-sprung double mattress all crammed in to a retro timber package. The last van won a trophy at the Gold Coast Rod and Custom show (similar but smaller design). This van has 300mm more head room than the previous van as well as twice the head-board storage - approximately 2.5 suit cases worth!

Body: 3000(l)x1800(h)x1500(w) - Head height inside 1400mm - probably the highest of any teardrop around Overall: 4000(l)x2080(h)x1990(w)

My baby is garaged in Logan Reserve - South side of Brisbane - 25 minutes south of the city and 45 minutes north of the Gold Coast.

Built 2014 - built new, hardly used $10,000 SOLD!!!

Selling my home built teardrop camper caravan cheaper than i want to but need to make a quick sale. I have recently changed the front storage box to a larger box for more storage. I have installed a high end electric water pump system.

• It has a TV (with usb/DVD/coaxial) and speakers for a surround sound. A stereo head if you want to throw on a CD or play music from USB or your phone via AUX or bluetooth.
• It has a very comfortable premium foam queen mattress from clark rubber. Two storage cupboards for storage inside.
• A gas cooktop, a 30L cooler, cutlery draws and cupboards in the kitchen area for my storage.External fold down table. Pop up ventilation inside. It will come with a small evaporative air unit (bought for $450) which sits inside one on the inside storage cupboards and works like a dream on a warm night.
• All appliances can run off either the 12v battery or 240v by plugging power into the external 240v power inlet.
• Sad to let this go but have to say goodbye.
• The teardrop camper caravan's registration has lapsed and is no longer registered.

Homebuilt by Jon & Nev - built new, never used $11,700 ono  Sold!!!!!

Unfortunately my newly finished, custom built teardrop is for sale. When I started the build 2 years ago the plan was to put it behind my Jindabyne Mauve EH and do a lap of Aus. However, the EH is now gone in place of a house and I need to get ahead with the repayments in case rates go up. I am sure I will regret this in years to come :(

I invite anyone to inspect and compare our teardrop to anything else that is currently on the market. It has all the mod-cons such as TV, fridge, 12V and 240V power, lights, inner-sprung double mattress all crammed in to a retro timber package.

The Van won a trophy at the Gold Coast Rod and Custom show last month.

I could keep going and going about all the custom bits and one off fabricated parts but this would go on for pages. It really needs to be seen to be appreciated. I have around 400 pictures and files for the new owner.

My baby is garaged in Logan Reserve - South side of Brisbane - 25 minutes south of the city and 45 minutes north of the Gold Coast.
