Today she is ours


We bought this little travel trailer today. A 1952 Crown. The woman that had it said she thought it was male, but I believe it's decidedly female.


There is alot of work to do to make it ready for next Spring, when we hope to start using it. Most of the work is Jerry's, but I'm going to do my part (which is pretty much what Jerry asks me to do, plus curtains).


Overall it's in pretty good shape - there are some dents up front where it appears one of the prior owners took a corner to close. There is also some bent places in the back where they may have bumped the underneath. There is also a little wood damage up front which will need to be repaired.


The electrical works, but we'll need to have the electrical and the propane lines all checked and possibly replaced. The interior is in remarkably good condition - except of course general ugliness. The gentleman that had it last decided paneling with huting scenes (elk, etc) was really the way to go! And some fake wood flooring. That can be pretty easily solved.


It's light enough to tow with the VW.
