Thread: Travel trailer talk... Is there a place here for it?

This thread left the tracks on post 32... Put a fork in it and call it done... I did.

This one looks similar, but not as cool as yours M.T.

Here is a vintage popup RV. These things are so cool. M.T. I really like the custom work you did on the trailer. Anyone wanting to post big photos can do so free thru sites like photobucket and link the picture here with the IMG code from photobucket. It's a nice compromise to keeping the MB storage capacity down on this site and the pictures load instantaniously. Everybody wins! Now back to cool old trailers/RV's

And here's on for Brent, with that certain bright bling factor!

or this one

That last one looks like it was used in the Lucy and Desi movie from the early 60's! LOL..

The blue & white/red & white models are Shasta trailers. M.T. had me heading that way until he mentioned that he fabricated the wings on his, and they're more art deco anyway.

Sadly, I kno of a scrapper who has cleaned this entire area of vintage travel trailers but always seems to find more. By the time they hit his yard, they are damaged pretty badly since he just slams them togther. One I was considering trying to rescue since it was about a 30' teardrop looking model that had to be from the late 30's, but the day I went to try to see if I could recover it, it was basically gone.

That's sad.. From what I have seen,,they are being restored all the time up in your country,,and much sought after down here..I wonder why the guy doesn't get them in his yard and sell them??

It was a pain in the butt towing the caravan behind the Cobra.
Normally the noise from the exhausts dissipates behind you, and the noise level is quite bearable; in fact you can even make conversation.
With the caravan on behind the noise hit it and 'bounced' back forward; a couple of hours of that and you got fed up with it.
