Growing up my grandmother had a small camper she stored in my parents' back yard. I'm trying to determine the year, make and model of the trailer from the one picture I have of it. Any help is greatly appreciated!!  |

Welcome!
The design is new to me but it looks like a mid/ late 60s camper. Any idea of the date of the photo?

There is no date on the back of the picture, but it was in an album from around 1974.
I've been scanning the internet for small camper pictures hoping to find what this one is for a few days now. From my very limited research, it is unique with the flat roof that is lower at the back, and the lack of windows (except for the door) on the door side, and no wheel arch.
I appreciate any help / ideas!

I wonder if it was a Home Built camper. How handy were your grandparents?

In my opinion it is a mid 60s trailer because it doesn't have required clearance lights that came about in 1968 if I remember right.

I'm going to agree with mid 60s and Windows were optional. In cold regions warmth was more welcome than a view.

MnMike last logged in Sept. 14 2019... Thanks for that. I only stopped by to try to find him. I have questions about a motorcycle build similar to one he has. If you have a contact email for him, can you send him a note for me, please? Ask him if he'd be willing to email me at sixbennetts@gmail.com, or pm here, whichever works for him. Thanks! Donny |
