The removal from the back yard went really well due to all the rain we've had,sand was stiffer. last year I had to have a front end loader come and pull two trucks (Mine the 4x4 attached to it) and the trailer out. Took about 5 hours to unload the tightly packed nasty junk out of this one. Luckily she had an empty dumpster.
Mostly complete and not much water damage,but still gonna be a complete tear down/rebuild due to the nasty.. Has stove,ice box all lights,sink, table dinette cushions etc.

Such a disaster, but those cabinet curves are awesome.

Lots of work to get a trailer, but this one looks like it has some really classy parts to it. Will you share more pictures now that you have it empty and at your place?? I'd love to see more of it.

Dan, Pretty cool cabinets for sure,but will need rebuild aside from the meece,the PO broke some away for better storage..
MS, Will do on the pics,haven't had time to go in and clean it up yet.
Larry, Since I plan to re-home it and not make parts out of it,I see no good in answering that question, other then to say, too much for the clean-up I've had to do and that that lies ahead. Thrill of the hunt satisfied, Psyche damaged..
NC, As it is/ will be here..

NC, As it is/ will be here.. I checked and USPS doesn't have a box big enough to ship it to me flat rate. I'm glad it won't be broken down for parts. It's a find.

It appears that You got a bonus load of "STUFF" with that one. It will be a while after I am done with this one, before I can afford another camper. I hope when the time and place comes that it will be as good as the one You have here.

It's a twin to my 56! Did it have cool inlaid Marmoleum flooring? Kinda tan with colors and green edging? I was really happy the way it turned out. The frames are a little light weight but that makes for a lighter trailer overall. If this was in my neck, I'd be all over it...

Hey Vikx,
Has the same flooring,but black (maybe dark brown) stead green. Nice job on yours,when I first opened the thread your pic loaded and I was like damn I cleaned that up well, Then wait ???LOL Someone's supposed to pick it up in the morn,hence me getting to the cleaning.. <a href="http://photobucket.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd106/amctogo/IMAG5601.jpg" border="0" alt=" photo IMAG5601.jpg"/></a>

Marty, Nothing that didn't need to be burned...Well I did find a WWll Bayonet in the forward cabinet,but returned it to the PO. Had been her fathers..
