Hey that's mine! It's the perfect trailer for the right person, Tell him its here will ya. I am going to be spending a few weekends cleaning up "La Lazy Lady"and getting her back into shape. She has been sitting for a few years un used and she is just too beautiful not be used by some one. I got the trailer totally Gutted less the Aluminum Ice Box. Its all new inside but built to look old. It was manufactured in Glendale California in early 1947 by the Aluminum Trailer Co. Hull #187, Model V. I met a couple that had one just like it with the hull Number 183 and theirs was a late 1946 model. I fashioned the port hole windows, wings, and skirts to give it a cartoon feel and that is not original... Just my own artistic interpretation of what I thought they should look like. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about it.

This is just inside the door and to the left. As stated earlier its really dirty inside and full of stuff. I will get some more pics up soon if thats ok with the Moderators. I dont want to push the spammer rules posted in the Classified rules? Its at the shop and Im not.

I do not see adding more pictures as violating the rules. You did not post the original for sale ad. I am assuming that you found our forum by interest from fellow members that contacted you after it was posted here. Adding pictures helps everyone get a better idea of what condition the trailer is in. Also gives the builders ideas for possible future builds.

Is it titled as 1947?

We rarely complain about more pictures. Neat camper! And I don't think you are breaking any rules here.
