This is my first attempt to restore an older camper. The previous owner thought this to be a mid 70's Lark. After we got it home we found a manual for the stove copyrighted 1969. I'll probably start a build thread soon. If anyone has any information on what I've got I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks

Nice Trailer! I like the retro lines. It is very similar to a Shasta LoFlyte or Aristocrat Loliner. The larger Airflytes and Land Commanders often had the same shape, but were taller and longer... Welcome to VTT!

to VTT. I have found a thread to a 1972 Lark for sale, the paint scheme is different than yours but I don't know if it is original. Anyway you might want to compare your interior to this one's. littlevintagetrailer.com/2014/08/1972-lark-vintage-trailer-for-sale/Then I found this 1971 with a similar paint scheme to yours. goodoldrvs.ning.com/photo/first-camping-trip-in-our-1971-lark-2In any event. I am thinking your Lark may well be very early 1970's not mid-70's or possibly, as you mentioned 1969. Finally I noticed that Tin Can Tourists has Lark listed as a manufacturer in their wiki section, but with no information. It may be a bit more difficult to pin point your camper's age because a search shows Main Line made a Silver Lark and Trotwood made a Lark, which will make a search more difficult. I'd do a search for a vintage Lark camper owner's club. Lots of Pinterest references but I don't Pinterest.

Does your Lark have any roof vents in it?It is remarkably similar to this "Bravo" camper I picked up a while back. Same windows, cargo hatch, even the axles.....
