Paul,
You may be on the right track...
There are better projects out there that don't need full rebuilds...

Well Paul. If it's free and you have room and time, get it. From the picture, like Rob says, it'll be a complete rebuild. Be a good learning project and probably take a couple of years.

funny tho, this is an old campground with a slug of seasonal campers that never move I did a good walkabout this fall and there are several vintage canned hams etc around there.

Yep, it will be a labor of love to save the old vintage trailer from demise. Building a new trailer from scratch would certainly be a lot easier.

It kinda looks like an old Bellwood to me:

If it is a real bargain it would make a great build platform for a custom build.
The frame would make it a bargain and any salvage is just gravy.
