Found this one while surfing tonight:

Beautiful trailer, but they sure want a lot of $$ for it. Lots of other neat stuff on that site too, check it out.

Way to much money. I've seen restored Benroys that look better than that one for way less money. And I'll just bet it's reconstructed not restored. But some one will come along that doesn't know teardrops or where to look and just has to have one and will pay the money. :yes:

Have a good day.

Yeouch!!! 15K? :shock: Looks more like a show piece instead of a utilitarian camper. I'd rather have storage than a full rack stereo system. Is it just me, or does it only have one tail light?

Yep single light and like Gage mentioned it does look like a recontruction not a restoration. For that price where's all the indoor amenities.sauna, shower, bathroom, etc.

yeah....I think this one is way out of line on the price...but like others mentioned...find someone willing to pay the price and that's what it's worth...good placement with the woodies in the background...makes people think that he has quality stuff, subliminally....and I'm not saying he doesn't...but I'd be willing to bet it's a rebuild, not a resto....just my opinion....maybe offer him 5K (or fill in your price) without all the route 66 stuff....I was also surprised at 22.5K for the 59 Rambler station wagon...nice car and all...but WOW...high dollar....Doug

Where is the storage area? The shelf is neat but you need somewhere to store your underwear (and all the lights that you hang on the outside of the trailer to show it off at night).
