Hi everyone my name is John. I recently retired to my desert property near Joshua Tree which has a small homestead cabin on it.
I've been looking for a vintage trailer to fix up and use as a guest house on the property. After a short search I found 2 trailers for sale that were languishing on a 12 acre hoarder's ranch in North Palm Springs. The hoarder died and her nephew was trying to sell them but they were inaccessible to any vehicles.
I ended up with 3 trailers that were on the property. We needed a Bobcat skid steer and flatbed tilt trailer to get them back to my property. I have pictures of the whole adventure but since this is my first post I will introduce you to the '63 Cardinal. I found a 1991 registration card in the trailer which gave me the make and year.
There are a few pics on the web of '63 Cardinals but I haven't seen any with the "trunk".
They had the door on the property and it's re-installed in the first pic.
I have been watching Mobiltec's videos. Luckily no silicone on this girl. Stay tuned...
