There's mold everywhere. This is under the sink. I initially thought it was only in the closet area so this actually has me pretty down.

We started pulling up the linoleum. It would look perfectly fine if someone hadn't dripped wood stain everywhere.

The plaque says it's the serial number. I'm just confused on whether there are two different numbers. Is there a VIN# AND a serial # or are they one in the same? Should I Co tinge looking for another number or is the serial number going to work to get my title?

We made it home safely with our 1962 Trotwood today. There's without question a lot of water damage. Can someone point me in the right direction on where to start first? Any good youtube videos, blogs, ect. We want to take it one step at a time. I have no idea where to begin and don't want to do something wrong. Today I cleaned it up with a vinegar/water mix and vacuumed. I removed the flooring that was down as it was basically just cut and laid on top with no adhesive. The floor underneath would be in good condition if the PO hadnt gotten stain all over it and tried to pull it up. The wood needs to be replaced under both couches and the back wall I believe will need to be replaced. The closet may also need new paneling. It used to be a bathroom so there's also a small hole in the floor that will need to be fixed as we won't have a bathroom. The stove and fridge are both rusty. The running lights on the sides need to be fixed. The back lights work fine. Anyways, a lot to be done and we're trying to decide what the first steps should be. We are so excited. Although more work than expected, I am obsessed with the trailer and can't wait to get it in good shape.

We picked up the 1962 Trotwood today. She's currently behind us as we make the 180 mile trip home. After further inspection we offered a lower price. Hoping all goes smoothly on the way home and that we don't have too much work on our hands. Couldn't leave her though. I was attached as soon as I saw it last time. We have never actually pulled a camper before so we both keep checking to make sure it's still there and together. Seems for us, the hunt is over. Although the work has only just begun.

We thought that was the case. We not only did that but also duct taped it around as well because we weren't sure and we're pretty worried. Glad to see yours looks exactly like ours.

There's no place to put the pin into the hitch? We're trying to hook up and go home with a new trailer. There's no way to put a pin on the hitch. Or so it seems.

Thanks. That's why I wanted to ask because I noticed that most people are talking about it being on the tongue. So I'll look there.

Where would I find the VIN# on a 1962 Trotwood Lark? Was told it should be in the closet but can't find it. The tongue is painted so I plan to use a wire brush to see if its there. DMV here in TN said I can apply for a new VIN# if one can't be found but it would be so much easier if I can find it.
