New addition... a Shasta Compact

Postby 2bits » Tue May 27, 2014 11:17 pm

I picked this up for $180 today. I called on the CL ad 20 min after it was posted and agreed upon $100 and she said she would hold it for me. Well of course she got like 40 calls while I was driving the hour and a half over there and when I called to say I was close, she gave me a BS story about how her mom was upset that she was selling it so cheap and the price was now $200 because she wanted to sell it for $400. I knew the real deal. I looked it over and knew it was still a deal at $200 so I told her I was keeping $20 for my gas and for $180 I hooked it up. I knew the dang wings were worth that much so I was happy. The tires were good too which made me feel real good after that last two campers that I bought...

I drove it at 60 mph all the way home and there were no problems at all and I barely knew it was back there, just like the teardrop days. It's night now but I'll post more pics tomorrow!

Good find, the wings alone are worth $200!

Thomas,

Great find! You're going to have to get a larger property if you keep buying trailers!

Take care,
Tom

Nice find Thomas! Guess you are going to have to get a Trailer Flipping show on travel channel if you keep this up!
