Found this vintage Travelaire Holiday trailer for sale near me. www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1617690339067389/?mibextid=79PoIi&rdid=KsRAg67OUVdWX55t&share_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fshare%2FGn61DgXLMvTr3VCa%2F%3Fmibextid%3D79PoIiThe owner thinks late 60s but doesn't know. But it has the 50/60s era rounded profile. What's cool is that its been stored for what sounds like decades. And was an inherited trailer, the guy is just trying to get rid of it now. Everything looks in great shape - from the exterior to the interior. All original as well. You never know with tin&stick trailers - but this thing looks like it may not even need to have a skins off rebuild. But of course, looks can be deceiving. Just trying to find out any info I can on it, but without a model or even approximate year, I'm coming up short. It does seem on the smaller side (look in the compact range, 11-12ft maybe). Anyone who knows something about these trailers, please let me know! Thanks.

I really like it! I'm saying 1967 (lack of '68 required lights across the top front) and the faux wood paneling. The body is straight and it "shows" very well.
That said, You're right about possible work needed. It's a little too clean for a trailer stored for years... Inspect very closely. "for someone who restores campers" tells me the seller knows of problems.
Definitely worth a look! Have fun.
