The front window set is just like the ones on the 56 and 57 Shastas. The floor screams 58 and 59. The outside shape is screaming 60...Beautiful trailer. Where the heck did you find this gem?

Wow, really is in nice condition... Even that cool light.
I'm guessing it's early 60s because of the wood paneling and the metal screen door. Haven't seen a 57 with a metal door before.
Has it had any previous work done?

bought off craigslist from original owners family. TCT site has brochure that states they were made from 55-60 and aluminum screen was listed as a selling feature. it hasn't had any work done they had the front center window ducked taped.. we realize now it is plexi. At some point the original glass must have broken. It was dirty and lots of mouse droppings. I am loving it the more and more I clean. I just can't believe the shape it is in for being outside for 50+ years. and we offered 1/2 of there asking price which I thought was high. But not having to do hours and hours of rebuild is priceless.
