I don't believe in Fate... I don't think anything is meant to be or not meant to be. Everything is as it is. We have the power to change what is to what was. I wouldn't wait too long on this one though. All the parts are there. That's the most important part. Only problem is, your yard will soon look like a vintage trailer rally. I own 2.5 acres, so I'm not quite at the overflow point with my two vintages and my 28.5' fifth wheel. I've actually just texted the guy (not sure if it's a landline or cell # on his listing), so hopefully he replies. If it's still available, I've decided I have to have it. (that may or may not be the wine talking)

That's a great idea - you _HAVE_ to have it.
4 hours away is practically next door!
Good luck. Nice looking trailer.

Considering I make a 1 hour round trip just to go grocery shopping, 4 hours for the next camper of my dreams isn't THAT unreasonable. Maine is a VERY large state end to end... so it's probably a long drive for most folks, but for me, not too bad. My husband changed his brake caliper tonight, so my tow vehicle is back in service.

And..... I bought it. That's now three vintages I'll have sitting in my yard. Time to get busy I guess!

Thanks. The owner took a PayPal deposit and will hold it for me until I can get down to get it in two weeks. Very excited for this one.

Awesome, thanks Larry. I messaged the owner of mine and asked him to send me more photos to tide me over until I get it home. This link will help tremendously.

Oh my gosh, my husband is ready to kill me already!! hahah But wow, that's a sweet looking trailer, huh? And I bet the prices could be knocked down some... yet again, a good 4+ hour one-way drive from me. Geesh, springtime is bringing all the campers out of storage!
