Hello All,

I am new here. My husband and I just bought a new travel trailer and we have not been able to find anything about it on the internet. The title says it is a 1972 Twilight Travel Trailer. After extensive searching, I have only been able to come up with a few pictures of vintage-ish trailers called Coleman Twilight Travel Trailer, but the pictures do not match my trailer.
My trailer is 16’ and has dual axles. I would appreciate any thoughts or comments. Thanks!

Welcome!

There were lot of tiny camper manufacturers that came and went. Duel axle were usually larger campers and never really caught on with campers this size. Hopefully somebody with firsthand knowledge of your camper will chime in.

I am excited to fix her up! We knew when we bought it that it has some water damage and probably hidden rot. I am glad to see all the helpful videos and information on how to do it right.
Here are a few interior pictures. Perhaps they will look familiar to someone. Almost everything looks original, even the cushion fabric!

The skin seems reusable which is a real plus. We don't get many duel axle campers but hopefully somebody will offer you some info.

Hello and Welcome,

Looks like a time capsule with the oranges and browns! That's a cute little tandem axle trailer. I think this was a short lived trend in trailers in the early 70's. My research found that Aristocrat sold a 1972 Landstar model with a short length and duel axles as well as Teepee with their 1972 Model.

I didn't find any info on this trailer as well. You might have the only one left.

I like it.

Rod
