Why is it that everyone who has an old teardrop, thinks they own a gold mine. You can buy a restored 'Kit' for $5900.

I'm with you Gage.

SOME trailers are worth a lot of money...IF there in great condition. And these same trailers are worth crap if there condition is crap.

A lot of sellers don't see the difference.

I've reconditioned many trailers, and weather I buy it or not is predicated on ;

1. What its worth in great condition

2. How much it will cost to get it in that condition.

3. How much I can get it for.

4. Is it worth my time.

Unless you have a personal connection with this particular trailer

Let it sit for that price.

Happy Trails

Mine did got not quite that much but then she was cute, had tight jeans and cash.


And she paid most the price of my re-skin



If only this had been a 1947 instead of a 2004 I could have had a kick ass RV!!

Mine was a 2004. A poorly worded attempt at humor... Using this guy's price, if I had sold a 1947 instead of a 2004 I would have made a lot more money.

I thought you were talking about the Kenskill.

Go figure....I always love reading those type ads...you know the ones...lots of words/phrases like, (rare, collectable, one of a kind, only 20 known to exist...etc...) You all would flip if you knew how cheaply I sold my 49 for and it had original glass fenders on it...but I know where it is, and it did go to a very good home, lots of TLC behind a 40 Ford. But that was many years ago in a galaxy far far away. Like PT Barnum said..."a sucker and his money are soon parted" Doug

Didn't he say, "There's a sucker born every minute?"...

[doug hodder]

I dunno Dean....I'm sure he had lots of "sucker" references....maybe I'm wrong, you might be right....I know I heard this for a good portion of my life. it works for me. and who said "never give a sucker an even break" or was that just a 30's WC Fields movie title? doug
