Anybody got an old traveltrailer for their ride

Still looking !!! Any leads ?

 

yeah try www.trulyvintagetrailers.com this guy loves these things and will work with ya on transport,he moves them all over the country.He is really fair about pricing seems he is more intrested in the saving of the old trailers for history than $$ that makes him OK in my book.....good luck

 

This is my favourite:




...and this is our trailer (photoshoped - but I just coud not resist to do that)

ok you nor-cal guys checkout epay #190138521675,its a unrestored 30s trailer. like the restored one below could be really kool.good luck

 

here's my turd's waiting in line to be the next "project"...

 

Poser......do ya just run out and pick up any trash, just to be part of the gang??

 

yep, the green one smells like cat turds... but not for long, started working on it today.

 

on epay this week.......in Califorina

 

A friend of mine put his 36 Pierce Arrow Travelodge on craigslist in Seattle earlier this week. I've wanted it for years but don't have anywhere to keep it. IF you're looking for a rare, aluminum sided trailer, see if it's still there. I sold my 55 Airstream a couple of years ago and haven't forgotten it since.

 

Now this is frickin COOL.

 

Just Picked this one up today..1966 TravelMaster 18'

 

Here's my '61 Unibody (yes I know it sits too high, and I will fix that this winter) and my '63 Aristocrat 'Lil Loafer' - 10 footer, super easy to tow!

 

blackie, that thing sits just right for pulling a camper. as soon as i find a step bumper for my 61 unibody it will be used to pull my scotty. very cool.

 

This one is in northern Alberta, on the Boondocks page below

 

I get 4x4 jokes from my buddies all the time, bastards...

Scotty's are hard to find around here. I'd love to find one!

I have a '59 Shasta that needs some love.

 

Yes, they are VEREY good people, very willing to work with others so that they can save old trailers and not just head hunt and look to make as much cash as possible. I had been in contact with them last year when i was looking and had the cash at the time,....of course everything for me was also waaay to far away!!! I'm probably gonna take the plunge late next year and scoop one up. I know of an old one locally very similar in shape and style to the one posted by meatball, but I cant ever seem to get anyone to answer the door at the place,....never seems to be anyone there.
its pretty rough though,..well, very rough actually, a major project, but as cool as you can get for the era which looks to be about early 1940s or so.

 

well here is my 39 bender I got her home!!!!!!!! NOW the fun begins

 

WOW! You have your work cut out for you!! There's some good info here:
Vintage Vacations, antique travel trailer talk

 

I posted my Shasta, that I just sold, above.
Here's the 62 Silver Avion I replaced it with(Same as an airstream)

Crappy pic

 

Here's our '58 Wonderer. The idea is to pull it with our '58 Nomad. Both projects need to be finished.

 

here is my hand made teardrops....i build them for fun!

 

thanks for the heads up....its rough but not many around like it to choose from.....the sides are really straight and the rust on the lower edge will be kinda a bitch...the inside will be very simple trying to hide all the modern stuff.and its got roll up windows like a car.......the other place I found stuff was on coachbuilders.com

 

I didn't say you shouldn't have picked it up!! I just know from experience that you're in for a few long hours...

 

Here's a site I found when I was looking for something last year. Some very interesting projects.

I understand......your right a lotta long nights,that ok it is nice here all winter long ( thats why I moved back from portland 5 years ago)I think I just found a donor trailer without the trunk........give my best to the "hot rod lady" joyce

 

Weird, I moved here from Phoenix about 3 years ago!! Does Joyce know you as Meatball??

 

I found out if we go to a GOODGUYS event with a trailer like these behind our registered ride we can haul it in no extra charge........oh yea.I still miss the rain in portland when its 110 degrees here

 

Yeah... I have known her since the 70s we we all cruised Broadway her in a 57 chevy ragtop,Bub in a morris pannel me in either my 66 ss396 chevelle or the model A in my avator....

 

One of our own, GMCBUBBA builds these...
