Hey, folks. I have been lurking for a few days, so I figured it would be polite to introduce myself. My name is Tom, I live in Idaho and I have just purchased my third vintage trailer, a '67 Shasta LoFlyte. I no longer have the first two ('67 Land Commander and '68 Cardinal) as I thought I was over the resto bug, but I saw the LoFlyte for sale and caved to my addiction. So here I am again.... Anyway, I look forward to seeing pics of all your trailers, maybe getting a few resto pointers and comparing notes.

Welcome! We don't offer any cure for your addiction here, but since it's relatively harmless, except to the pocketbook, that's not usually necessary. If you've been lurking, even for a short time, you'll know that our unofficial motto is, "pictures, or it didn't happen." Can't wait to see your Loflyte!

1967 LoFlyte...I believe. The axle must have been flipped because it sits higher than all the others I have seen.

Kinda takes the advantages of the "LO flyte" away from it, don't it? Definitely looks flipped to me. The gold-stripe body style and the Loflyte models came out at the late-67 stage of the company's history, and I see by your other post that the trailer was built in Battleground Washington. It looks like it is going to be a fun project, especially since you have prior experience with other vintage trailers. Is this one the front-kitchen, or front-dinette version?
