    Howdy Larry, I discovered Lakewood began making large park models in the late 60s and even double wide MHs in the 70s such as their Gold Medal models.

      OH I didn't know that. I really liked that trailer but I ended up flipping it as I had too many projects at the time.

    This reminds me so much of the trailer my dad bought to go camping in, back in 1972.. dents and all! His was a 1956 Ideal trailer, previously owned by a construction company. The inside was in good condition at that time.. Loved the birch paneling interior! We had a lot of fine memories with the family camping outings.. When the trailer was just parked at our house, My sister and I slept out in it all summer!
    So glad you found a good home for this one! Folks restore many things.. So why not vintage trailers?? Keep up the great work!

    Hi, I am looking for information on vintage campers called Ledger wood. Any info would be greatly appreciated!!

    • @mobiltec
      @mobiltec  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      A ledger or a piece of ledger wood is nothing more than a piece of wood on the paneling that you build the bed or something else off of like a deck in your back yard that is built off of a piece of wood nailed to the wall.

      I have many women in my class who have never picked up a tool until now and they are building beautiful trailers all by themselves. Many of my viewers have built beautiful trailers out of way worse than this one. Just watch my videos is all you have to do.

    Does one have to replace the metal? I like the vintage original unless there's a structural problem. If replacement is for aesthetic purposes, then one could keep it, right?

    • @mobiltec
      @mobiltec  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      As long as it's not leaking it can be kept. If leaking it must be repaired or replaced. Just depends on what you will do with the trailer, how you store it and how bad the damage is.

      No one has lived in this trailer as far as I know. I picked it up about 300 miles from here last year. My landlord decided he wanted to charge me for my trailers because he saw a buck to be made.

    So it is a complete and total restoration. Doesn't seem worth it for such a small trailer (just my honest opinion).

    • @mobiltec
      @mobiltec  6 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Your opinion is welcome here. To some it's not worth it. To others it is. This trailer actually became an office inside of a big industrial building. It was exactly what the buyer was looking for and he drove all the way from Vegas to pick it up.

      He started watching that stupid cable show Flyte Camp and Flippin RVs and decided I was becoming a millionaire. So he figured he should get a piece of the action. Well I can't really afford his piece so I have to cut the heard. The more I worked on that trailer the more I wanted to keep it but then again that's how they all are. Wait till you see the one I kept to restore. It was a tough choice but I'm happy with it.
