Some older mobile homes were GLORIOUS. The wood finish in them, the coziness. We camped in a campground where people had their RC spots for 30-45+ years. My mom camped there in the 70’s in the same lot. It was actually common for people to have their “starter homes”, which were their little RV’s or airstreams, pop ups, etc. then they’d spend their entire lives working towards their “forever home” as they called them. People literally built decks on top of their campers that had steps walking up to them from a deck in front of the trailer. Campers were turned into HOMES. maybe would park two campers or trailers side by side, and then join them in the middle, connecting them, knock out all the interior walls and rebuild it all. They were permanent. You could tow them out anymore, even the most mobile of the mobile homes and campers. Some people had even built storm cellars (those were later all filled in due to the sea level). It was a wonderful campground. It was around for nearly 20 years when my mom was a kid in the late 60s, I believe. Was unfortunately sold quite a while back, and is now a modern KOA. I can still picture the smell of those old bath houses.. The sweet lady on our path who would invite us over for sliced tomatoes she grew right there in her summer garden, with cucumbers and zucchini’s, and she’d load us up a shopping bag. Her husband had built a huge deck around their camper, and she used the siding to grow her tomato’s and other climbing herbs and veggies. Everyone decorated their sheds really cool. Ours had a handmade giant wooden door that had a marshy scene with a heron. It was beautiful. When we sold our lot, my dad ripped that door off the shed and we still have it to this day. It now is attached to one of our gates. I miss that campground. I grew up there. First time I ever got independence was when my mom let me stay there by myself for a whole summer.
Yep my family was poor and moved around a lot, my favorite place we lived was a mobile home (and the only mobile home we lived in) it was on a suburban street, and on a big plot of the landlord's land with a big yard with a jungle gym and fields with trees behind it. The acutal home was great too, super cozy, wood stove in the decent sized living room, great kitchen, dining room had wall to wall windows, two bedrooms; one for my parents and one for my sister and I. And even two bathrooms each with it's own shower/bath, one across from our parent's room and one connected to our bedroom. Lived in apartments, duplexs, and rented houses before and after as a kid, but that moblie home was the best (and the cheapest rent). Developers bought out the fields and half of the neighborhood so we had to move.
Before my parents finely decided to buy a house we spent a lot of time living in mobile homes. One of my parents friends had a trailer that had an upstairs. I thought it was the coolest thing ever!
I love its vintage character! I lived in a 1938 trailer, 8 by 38 ft., with a similar floorplan, honey colored wood walls and ceiling, porthole window in the door, glass door cabinetry. The good old days. Best wishes with your restoration! 😊
11 years ago, I was in my mid-20's and restless, and decided I wanted to buy a camper and just leave town for a few years. Found a guy selling a 1973 Scotty Highlander... really cool vintage camper, fell in love with it on the spot and bought it. I still needed to work another year or two to save up the money for a truck to pull it, so I just enjoyed it in the driveway... came home after work and had beers in it sitting at the dining table, listening to music on the overheard radio. Life threw me some bad hands and I wound up having to sell her... and not a day goes by that I don't regret it. It was only a single-axle 18 footer, but for some reason the mobile home in this video reminds me of it. Cool find, I hope it gets restored! As for my old camper, I'll actually be featuring it in one of the first few videos of my new TH-cam series. A little depressing of a topic, but still... it meant something to me and I want to share the story.
I hope you can restore this unique beauty! Since I was a kid, I have been fascinated by vintage mobile homes, and the 2 story models are the best! The workmanship and design were better in 1950s trailers than you see in the modern tiny homes.
Ohh thanks for sharing this beautiful beast of a Caravan,lots of love proper varnished Wood,gosh so many beds,pretty wall lights,I hope someone saves it & restores it to its former glory😘
They did. The thing is 70 years old and put up with years of heavy snow piled on top of it. Show me any regular home that has gone 70 years without a re-roof. All you need is one crack, and that will let water in which will then rot all the ply underneath.
It seems a design flaw perhaps? It seems to be in that same spot, always. My '65 had a roof collapse in that spot. Swamp cooler was there, if you know what that is. Tee
My stepfather moved mobile homes, and I worked helping tare downs and set up along with repairs, we moved one of these in the early 1980's. I think they are just the coolest
True, but I think the roof collapse was probably the end of the line. Once you have serious water intrusion things can really go downhill. I bet it would have been pretty expensive to either have repaired or haul away.
@@jnharton Yes too expensive to fix , probably rotted floor , extensive water damage . It might be fixable to use as a hunting camp or something. I think hauling it out is a Lost cause . My grandfather had a neighbor with an old single wide he had bunks built into so 8 people could sleep comfortably . It was old but, stationary and no water damage. Some great memories .
Wow, super cool. It will be a great project for someone with the time & money. Somebody will want to tackle this project for sure. Keep us updated. Thanks Ben
This needs restored! So much character. Look at what new mobile homes cost...If someone put half the amount into this , they would have an awesome dwelling.
I had no idea they actually made double decker mobile homes back then. I know this would've looked so cool if it were still in much better shape. Maybe if the roof could be fully repaired and everything got cleaned out it might still be livable.
I lived in a similar one in 1960. Don't know when it was built, but it was a real beauty. Hardwood everywhere. My sisters and I (the 3 of us) slept in bunks that were triple stacked! I loved it. Built in dressers too. 😊
My parents, two sisters and I lived in a double decker trailer around 1960. Loved it. This looks very familiar, especially the inside. Would be fun to live in again.
My grandfather had one, not a double decker. He built a log cabin of the side he tore a wall out of with huge ceilings and large triangle pain widows. I thought it was the coolest house I had ever been in. It felt so enchanting.
My grandparents owned a trailer court when I was growing up in the sixties and seventies, a lot of newly married couples moved into a trailer as a starter home where they lived until the put together money for a house. I only ever saw one double decker, never went inside.
The actual plan on that subject would be interesting to know. Flat bed trailer haul and place it, but, multi trips would seem a bad idea even if it were new.
The Seller Obviously Doesn't Expect Top Dollar or they would have Spent a Hot Minute Cleaning Up...Unless theyre Old and it's Full of Mold! I'd just Give it to you! ❤
Wow it’s still really nice oddly enough. I would’ve thought that it would’ve easily fell into decay worse than it is. It’s quite lovely & full of character.
Very cool! It's mind blowing to think that our current 5th wheel RV trailers actually rival or exceed the interior size (with slide outs) and amenities of these older single wide mobile homes.
*WE LIVED IN A 3 STORY MOBILE HOME* The First Story was it was cheap and safe The Second story was it had a clear title The Third story was the land it was on was owned by the seller
Thanks for showing us. I had been in several similar as a child. The ones around my area only had 2 bedrooms within the split part. On the lower was a room with 2 twin beds. The upper bedroom had the twin bed sitting on the ceiling on the room below. It was tiny.
This is pretty cool! I can see it back in the 50's being advertised to go to Florida! They had all the fancy trailer courts! I lived in a very old trailer with a ugly green toilet and tub! I don't miss it! 😂
For what it’s going to cost to remodel it they could buy a beautiful brand new Airstream 38 footer. We had a 28 footer in the woods in Michigan that we spent weekends and hunting season living in. Great times.Would do it again if I was younger.❤
I so truly would take on this project and make a home out of it, I am no Carpenter but I would definitely go room by room wood panel by wood panel, I unfortunately just sold a 1960 all original Shasta mobile home and I regret it something about these old mobile homes in the history and character that they have this is truly a rare one and a beautiful one worth saving
My mom inherited a 1950's baby blue trailer and land years ago. Solid wood, sconce lights, in excellent condition. My oldest brother got it and later had it towed off as he purchased a large, new trailer. I wish they would have kept it.
Omg. This is taking me back, my family had a cabin that was half streamliner, half stick frame in Clermont, just up the road from the ANF. I remember peeking in rusted old campers. There was an old abandoned teardrop, that was the office for a gas station on clermont road in the 70s
It's nice to meet you, friend. That must have been amazing back when it was functioning!! I love how it has the upstairs! Thank you very much for sharing it with us. If you do take it, please post the fixing up and end result for us!! I wish you continued success and happiness always!
I live in Piqua Ohio and I swear... as a kid, every Christmas my neighbor's extended family would bring up a UNIT of a camper like this and hang out for a month or so. It was so big it'd hang out of the driveway and onto the sidewalk. it was just... *mind blowing sound effect*
To bad! Back the day, it was a beautiful Mobil because there was a lot of love and craftsmanship put into something that long. I wish you could save some of those panels and that straight grain trim. You can't find that anymore.
Hi, just discovered your video of this beauty, and frankly I'm astounded. What a huge beast for it's time, or even today. I really hope you can get it restored as it has to be a very rare classic. Heck, it's a mansion on wheels lol
That is awesome!!! Save her!!! My first place was a 10x50 trailer probably a 1970 not real sure. It was a 2 bedroom, just big enough to fit a full size bed in the room. I was a single mom so the other bedroom had a crib in it. It was made so solid!!! And the heater worked excellent!! We were never cold!!! The bathroom believe it or not was the best!!! That was 40 yrs ago!!! Oh btw I paid $160.00 a month for it!!!!
Coral--that was a hot color mid-fifties. Especially with two-tone combined with black on like a '56 Bel Air for instance. Coral and Turquoise were big in those years.
Back in the early 90’s a guy had one of these on a farm that he’d bought at an auction maybe. It was so big I thought it was a trailer house, I didn’t realize until now that it’s a camper. I never seen the inside, it didn’t look a whole lot better than this one on the outside.
From what I remember back in the 50s & 60s there were no titles for mobile homes. My Grandfather lived in one and when he passed my Mom just gave a bill of sale to the guy that bought it. And that was in the 70s.
Amazing. I think youre going to have the hardest time lifting it on a flatbed. Great unit tho. Im still using an old Rolls International. Made in early 70s. I built a roof over it with an attached porch. Have a friend with a 2 story unit but the upstairs is only like 4' high. Like a crawlspace. For sleeping or storage, basically. It was new in the mid 80s. I forget the mfgr.tho. I hope youre serious about rehabbing this, its not gonna be cheap & will take some time. Good luck & God Bless. Keep us posted. 🙏❤☺

Nice to have a visual of your life in "imobile" homes. Lol Tee in N.M.
Love your story. 🙂 sounds like you have really good memories of a time I wish I could travel back to.

I saw one when I was a kid that had a roof slide out that was a whole room on top it was wild

Didnt say he was going to buy it.

@@Dave-bj3pquhhh it was
Mine had a fridge with the freezer on the bottom of the unit. People think that it’s a modern convenience but it’s been around a while.
This was luxury back in the day. It’s really pretty cool.

It's a beautiful piece of workmanship, it's a shame that they didn't seal the roof.
They did. The thing is 70 years old and put up with years of heavy snow piled on top of it. Show me any regular home that has gone 70 years without a re-roof. All you need is one crack, and that will let water in which will then rot all the ply underneath.
Looks like it actually had standard roof shingles added at some point. I think they gave up on it.
It seems a design flaw perhaps? It seems to be in that same spot,
always. My '65 had a roof collapse in that spot. Swamp cooler was there, if you know what that is. Tee
I fear the worse when you dig into this project - but it's truly gorgeous!
That's gorgeous.
Should be on the registry of historic homes.
Please please please save her.
🙄
Lol garbage unless you have no where to live and then it is a castle.
😂 a trailer historic,, stupidest comment there..
@@Dave-bj3pq "Should be on the registry of historic homes" LOL!!
I can show you whole trailer parks of those it ain't worth shit

I would love to see the finished product, It would look Amazing ❤
damn shame the guy let this camper rot like that
Yes it is . Maybe someone older passed away ?

That camper is 70 years and I would take it in a heartbeat fix it up and have me a beautiful home with no mortgage like I have now
It’s as shame how bad it is, I bet it could be saved , it’s got potential , it’s still pretty
That's such a cool trailer! So different! Imagine how amazing it could be if someone takes the time to fix it up.
Would LOVE to see this renovated and turned into an onsite Airbnb or something!
My uncle had one similar back in the mid to late 60s ... drug up an old memory for me - Thanks!!
Thanks for the video, love the trailer, keep us posted on it's progress 😊
This is so awesome I really enjoy anything old and unique. I love it thank you for sharing.😊
I love that Blonde wood finish! Everyone wants a dark wood color in their house!
Nice! They used good materials back then it shows.
Like asbestos
This needs restored! So much character. Look at what new mobile homes cost...If someone put half the amount into this , they would have an awesome dwelling.

They were freaking awesome! Google it! See what a new or refurbished one looks like!
There were even triple-deckers in those days!

The actual plan on that subject would be interesting to know. Flat bed trailer haul and place it, but, multi trips would seem a bad idea even if it were new.
Probably a mobile home towed by a tractor aka 18; wheeler...
That really is worth saving , its got style and character, and to restore it to its former glory would be quite an achievement. ,👌

I've never seen one like that! Comfortable design and I love all the wood. I fear she'll completely fall to pieces if you try and move her.
Save it!!!🎉
Wow it’s still really nice oddly enough. I would’ve thought that it would’ve easily fell into decay worse than it is. It’s quite lovely & full of character.

It definitely has potential. The upper and lower decks are fairly good condition. I've rebuilt worse and your labors are worth the effort.
This actually looks alot better than most mobile homes that are currently being lived in.

Just gorgeous

I'm looking forward to seeing this home completely restored. Hopefully, this will happen.
So cool , I got to see in one ,in upstairs the same.
thank you so much wow very cool video!
What a great find
I once lived in one that had three levels in the back. Three bedrooms. One bathroom. Small rooms but interesting set up.
Wow, very nice interior, especially considering it sitting there with the windows open
Fantastic 👏
We had a “cabin” that was a double decker camper that was added on to. It was really a cool layout.
This is very cool...never seen a mobile home with an upstaairs room.
Coral--that was a hot color mid-fifties. Especially with two-tone combined with black on like a '56 Bel Air for instance. Coral and Turquoise were big in those years.

Very worth saving. Clean it up and it will give you a new appreciation of it and where it can be after restoring it.
Need money to do that. 🤑💰💸 Is it worth it?
@@HazeInBrain Probably chock full of mold and would be a money pit. Too bad it was left to rot.

Amazing. I think youre going to have the hardest time lifting it on a flatbed. Great unit tho. Im still using an old Rolls International. Made in early 70s.

That thing is awesome.
It’s definitely worth saving!!! 🙏
What a beautiful home it's a shame for the roof
Reminds me of the childhood home I grew up in 😢
I demolished a 1950s trailer. I couldn't believe how well it was constructed...I mean it was built like a tank!
I've never seen one of these before, but it would have been a snazzy little place to live back in its heyday.
Cool design
I would LOVE to have one of these!
