i have a hard time believing the whole thing, INCLUDING the starting trailer, cost only $9300. but that point aside.. wouldn't wood (interesting sounding) construction be WAY too heavy for a 5th wheel. it would never collapse, but hey, with petrol prices as high as they are, that tow vehicle is gonn...

how are the wing coming along, scott? it's been almost a month since the last post.. so, that means you're about to seal the tanks?!? j/k.. hope all is well... the offer always stands for me to come down sometime and help bang some rivets!

Hey there Scott, I haven't been able to order my emp kit yet, because I am getting my new garage ready to build in. First there was the task of getting all the moving boxes into the house, and put away, (still not done). Then build a wall to separate the 1-car from the 2-car section of the garage. T...

one more vote in.. cool design.

i love the bikes.. but hate the lower gas prices than us, here in cali.

dude.. lockhart phillips used to make a piece of glass, that fit over the license plate, and connected to 12V power.. glass was clear, but when you flicked a switch, glass turned completely black, like a calculator screen kind-of.. haven't seen one in MANY years.... hmm.. how can i put that technolo...

The single spot will be a protected area for my car, to keep the shavings and junk away from it! also, I'd had to swing something around or have an a...

Roger-wilco- Thanks..actually, one of my co-workers has offered to come over on his days of and pound some rivets with me, as long as I can teach him how! little does he know what he just got himself into.. and he's a tall, scrawny thing too, so those long, skinny arms will come in QUITE handy! but ...

Hey everyone, wanted to introduce myself, and it seems like this is the place to do it! I'm 30 years old, and about to start my journey into the unkown of a RV-7. (October 2007) This has only been made possible because I just bought my first house, in Rancho Cordova, near Sacramento! I told the wife...
