Hi all, After mousing around a bit I couldn't find hardly any info on Fireball Trailers. I really liked the idea that this Forum is "A Goop Free Zone!".
If anybody has any info or links to info on Fireball trailers and their history I'd really appreciate it.
Anyway -- I have what I believe is a 1962 Fireball Meteor Standard. I could post the Vin if it means anything to anybody...
I've actually owned it for 20 years... It was my first house -- I lived in it for 11½ months! Saved a lot of money...
It's been neglected by me for the past ten years or more while I've been deployed or stationed overseas... It's time to give her some love and I'd like to do that right -- very excited by the level of information I've seen here already. The good news is that it's been in Colorado all this time so mostly dry climate and not too much water damage -- the worst being drifted snow packed against the floor sills.
I don't see an easy way to add a pic so I'll have to learn about that as well...

Welcome Banman!
Fireballs were well made trailers, especially the older ones. I haven't had one myself but some of our members have. Hope they chime in for you.
Check out the Tin Can Tourist site; they have a page of trailer info and Fireballs may be listed.

Thanks for the welcomes!
I've since learned that Fireball was only sold in 7 western states -- that would explain some of the rarity...
Still haven't found out any info on the company or owners groups...
I have confirmed I have a 1962 Fireball Meteor Standard 16T (16 feet w/toilet)
