Congrats! Even if it needs work, everything is there, and the skin looks great. Sounds like it will have many more years of memories.

He's going to grow up working on this Shasta. And some day it will be his four generations slept in this beauty boy if the walls could talk.

Nice looking trailer, it's always nice to have almost everything there on the really old trailers. While cleaning it up don't forget to loosen the skins and check the framing for rot and water damage. Haven't seen a trailer yet that didn't have some and you definitely want to fix that from the outside in so the trailer is safe and sound. Looking forward to seeing it progress.

There is some rot by the wheel wells. And of corse the vent and front area. Got a lead on 1/8 birch I bought a pocket hole jig already. I want to add a Fantastic vent but I'll have to add 12v somehow.
