JimK beat me to it but additionally there are lots of Teardrop plans on the Internet, I have a link to a website back home and will put it up when I get home. Something would like to build if ever I get the time...

I like these - slightly more 'period' looking.

Those are really nice, and I agree the looks are more suited to a Minor. Even more expensive that the Teardrops though. I'll look out for the link dp is going to post about build plans.

Build your own

Have a look at -
http://www.mikenchell.com/forums/
which I have found is the best web site.

I used to have a detachable camper that went onto the load bed of a pick-up.
I'm going with a similar concept and making a detachable camper but this time it will go onto a small trailer that is big enough to carry my Microcar, Austin Seven, motorbikes, 8x4 sheets of ply etc when camper detached.

Here we go:

There's a whole forum as well as different plans. I could see something in a mixture of wood frame and Minor wings matching a Traveller quite well

To get an idea of how they go together, the pictures here are helpful...

Just the regular stuff you get from B&Q more or less
