My daughter trader her beloved utility trailer for the Holly. I will pay for her new trailer when she finds one similar! In the meantime, I now see a fair bit of water damage and a whole lot of rebuild in my life. Anyone else have a Holly? I don't see many out there on the web that people have rebuilt. I am already on Mobiltec's website and have ordered the book from VK Lee. I'm planning on a complete rebuild so this is going to be an interesting project. There is a little damage to the metal (missing piece at the bottom and some repairs that were not great) so I have to look into fixing or replacing the metal. Let me know if you have ideas on this. Anyway, glad to be here in this group with so much information to help me along the way. Someday I hope I can take her camping!

Hollys are built very similarly to other stick and tin trailers. You will have a fun build. The trick is to take it apart from the outside-less than 1/2 the time than trying to patch the inside. I learned this the hard way...
Metal can be bought new or sometimes RV shops have extra pieces they may want to discard. Many of the patterns are "close" to vintage. Good luck on the hunt.
