Editor's Note:  Sold for $4,850

We bought this little camper two years ago and have only used it once. I've spent hours and hours remodeling it, but we just don't use it, so we're letting it go. Everything on it works and it's ready to travel.

What's been done to it

• The previous owner repainted it. It looks good, but he got some specks of over-spray on a couple of the windows.
• New solid-ponderosa cabinet, storage-compartment and closet doors.
• New solid-ponderosa table tops. (there's no particle-board left in it anywhere)
• New carpet. I didn't glue it down so that it can be pulled out and washed if it's ever needed.
• New paneling on both sides of the bathroom.
• Replaced the carpet that covers the seam in the ceiling with the same paneling.
• Replaced the paneling on the refrigerator door with same paneling.
• New wheels (2007)
• New tires (2007, still look new)
• New faucet in kitchen sink
• New faucet in shower
• New ball seal in toilet 
• New signal and clearance lights. All of them, replaced complete components, not just the bulbs or lenses.
• New 7-pin RV plug
• Greased wheel bearings. This trailer has grease-zerks, so you can grease it with a grease gun instead of having to disassemble the hub to grease the bearings. 
• Too many small things to list.

What it still needs

• Nothing as far as being ready to use. These are the things that I had planned to do to it.
• Rework a couple of spots on the fiberglass. One spot by the closet door (pic), a spot on the ridge that runs down the outside (pic) and a few other nicks and scratches.
• Replace the stove top (pic). You will probably HAVE to do this. The stove woks perfectly, but the top had some rust on it. I called several RV dealers but none of them had one in stock and I didn't want to wait on one to get here, so I painted it with chrome paint so it wouldn't make the kitchen look nappy in the pictures. I doubt the paint will stay on it around the burners. They quoted me $97 for it and  if I were you, I'd go ahead and order it when I got the trailer home and be done with it.
• Replace the outside light (pic). It only works when it wants to. It's not a problem with the wiring or anything, it's just needs replaced.
• Needs a bulb in the florescent light under the cabinets in the back. I didn't have one or it would be replaced already.
• Replace the flush valve on the toilet. The toilet works fine, but the valve drips just enough water to be a nuisance in the floor of the shower.
• Needs a cap for the water tank fill spout (pic). Looks like inch and a half pipe thread to me. A threaded PVC pipe cap would probably screw right on there. Also needs to be washed out before you use it. We never used it, but I did pour some water in it to check the 12V pump and it worked perfectly.
• Replace the Plexiglas window panes with real safety glass. All of the windows are intact and open and close, But the previous owner got something on the front window that wont wash off and some over-spray on a couple of other ones.
• The upholstery is in good shape, but has two slightly different patterns on the cushions. I don't know if some of them have been re-covered or what the deal is with it.
• The curtains are old, but still keep the sun out.
• I think that's it, but this trailer is 18-years old so you may find something else.

What I pulled it with

I tried three different vehicles. First, my 81 diesel VW Rabbit pickup. It makes about 50-HP (about like a 3-cylinder Geo Metro) and doesn't pull it well. Then, my 84 diesel Toyota pickup, It makes about 65-HP(most small pickups make much more HP that this) and did a lot better but still left a bit to be desired. Finally, I built a trailer hitch for my old Mercedes 300SD which makes a little over 100-HP and it pulled it just as fast as I wanted to run. From my experience, if your vehicle makes 85-HP or more and is rated to to handle the tongue-weight(125lbs) and GVWR(2500lbs) of the trailer you should be good to go. The empty trailer is listed at 1,500lbs, the GVWR is the trailer plus all your gear, water and so on.

Features

• Back dinette converts into a double bed (there's a board in the closet that you use, everything is there and works good)
• Front dinette converts into a single bed (nothing missing, works good)
• 3-burner stove (works good, but needs new top, about $100)
• 110V-12V-Propane refrigerator (works good)
• 7100 BTU air conditioner (old, but still works)
• Double stainless steel sink (old, new faucet, works good)
• 12-gallon water storage tank (needs a cap and to be flushed out, tank doesn't leak and 12V pump works good)
• 20# propane bottle (not pictured, son has it on his BBQ grill, will put it back on there, looks good)
• Roof vent (works good)
• Closet bar (to hang clothes on)
• Fold down step (at front door)
• 110V power cord (works good but could use a new end put on it)
• 110V and 12V lights (work good, one needs a bulb)
• 110V to 12V inverter/charger (works good)
• 2" ball coupler (works good)
• Electric brakes (don't know if they work good or not, never hooked it up to anything with a brake-booster in it)
• 2 self-storing stabilizer jacks (a little stiff, but still work)
• Spare tire and wheel (good shape, never been on the ground)
• Traveler porcelain toilet (works good, but could use a new valve)
• Shower (works good)
• Waste-water storage tank (not sure what capacity it is, probably 20-gallon like the fresh water tank)
• City water hook-up (all works good)
• Water pressure regulator (very good one, put this on the faucet, then put your hose between it and the camper, I'll put it in the cabinet drawer for you, it will keep you from blowing out a water line if you hook up to a faucet with crazy water pressure)
• 5-gallon propane water heater (works good, remember to turn the  hot water on in the trailer to get the air out of it and fill it with water before you light it)
• Outside 110V plug in (works good)
• Gravel shield (for front window)
• Outside light (needs to be replaced)

Some final notes

This is a nice trailer, but it's NOT NEW. It's 18-years old and although it's in good shape for it's age, it does show signs of being used. You're only allowed 24 pictures and that's not enough to show every little nick and scratch on something and still have enough pictures left to show it's nice features too. If you'd like to come and see it in person, just let me know when you want to come by and we'd be happy to show it to you.

I'm going to have our son come by with his pickup (he has a brake booster in it) and we'll check the electric brakes, then I'll update the listing with what we find out. This trailer weighs less than 2,000lbs fully loaded and I don't really know why they even put trailer brakes on it. I wouldn't be surprised if they've never even been used, but we'll check them out and report back what we find. 

A couple of the cushions aren't shown in the pictures, but we have them and they look just like the ones you see pictured. One of them is used to make a top bunk bed over the twin bed in the front of the trailer. Either this trailer didn't come with the kit to make bunk-beds, or it's missing. We didn't need bunk-beds so we just left the cushion at home when we went on our trip. The other, is a big square cushion (about 28"x28") that's used to turn the back table/seating area into a double bed. I didn't use it because there was nowhere I put it that looked right in the pictures. Both cushions will be in the trailer when you pick it up.

If you buy the trailer, you can leave it here while you make plans to come pick it up as long as it's a reasonable time frame like, a couple of months. Or, I can put it in a secure storage unit here close me if you want to pay the rent on it, then you can leave it there as long as you like. If you leave it here, I wont be responsible for it's care, or for any damages to it while it's on my property.

If I think of anything else, I'll add it to the listing. If you have any questions just hit "Ask seller a question" and I'll answer them as quick as find them.

Thanks for looking and good luck.

Updates:  I forgot to mention that it has a zippered screen door that fastens to the inside of the trailer with Velcro. Updates:  When you don't need it, you un-fasten the Velcro and roll it up where it snaps in place above the door out of the way. It needs to be put back on with new sticky-backed Velcro though (Walmart).

I' have all the original documentation for the trailer, refrigerator, toilet, and screen door.

The vehicle I pulled this trailer with (Mercedes 300SD) typically gets 26-27-miles per gallon (without trailer). It got 22-MPG when we pulled the trailer to Dallas and back. These little campers are very light-weight and they sit right down over the axle which reduces their wind resistance when you're pulling them. I wish I had put a picture of it sitting beside our sons travel trailer so you could see what I mean. The top of the air conditioner on this trailer is lower than the roof on his. All of the corners on this trailer are rounded which also reduces wind-resistance and improves fuel economy even more. This little trailer would pay for itself in fuel savings over time for someone who travels a lot. You can save a BUNCH of money on just one round trip if it's a very long one. Or you can go a lot further and stay gone longer for the same amount.

The frame is not rusted. We're in the South (Oklahoma) and stuff doesn't rust down here like it does up North.

Forgot to mention that I put a little block of wood under the bottom hinge on the closet door so that the front of the door closes with no gap in it. You can see it in one of the pics. They molded the fiberglass on these with a little twist in the closet so that the corner helps support the roof better. The consequence being that it leaves a gap at one corner of the door when you close it. I like the gap at the back instead of the front so I put the block under there. If you don't like the block just take it out (Phillips screw driver, two minutes).
