Greetings, I recently purchased a Leisurehome travel trailer, but I am having trouble finding information on it. I do not know the year or if it is a specific model. There is a very faded logo above the front window that reads "Leisurehome." I've seen a 1957 Leisurehome, and while it shares much of the styling inside and out, the front end and shape are completely different than mine. The paperwork I received with the trailer is completely wrong, so I am trying to collet accurate information to take to DMV for the lost title paperwork. From what I gather, Leisurehomes Corp. existed between 1955 to 1961-63(?) in Salt Lake City. The VIN is SNTR00127849MT and is located on the frame near the propane tank. I can take more pictures if needed to help identify it. Any help correctly identifying this trailer would be great! Thank you, Ryan W.   |

I'm not familiar with Leisure Home trailers, but this one appears to be early to mid 50s. Guessing 12 feet long, 7 wide.
Series 849, possibly "mountain" or Montana"??

I've got pics of a very small '56 Leisurehome shaped much more similar to the smallest Beemers and a larger '56 Leisurehome. Both have a rounded forehead top half on the front then a 90 degree break back about 6" before angling back and downward. Both styles have a unique wheel cutout. Back part is squared to the front that then angles back. They both have rectangular jalousie windows in the doors. They also appear to have a V paint scheme in the front that features kind of what I call a sunburst pattern on the lower half front skin. Does that description come close to the pic of the '57 you have? If so, judging from the cutout on yours, no door window and smoother lines, I'd say they had begun streamlining production to cut costs a bit and yours might be a '59 - '61ish. The '56 Leisurehomes were more stingy with the size and number of windows too except on the door. I'd post pics but I'm still getting the hang of that.
