Al, would you believe I got it. The man said he already had 13 emails on it. I was able to reach him on the phone after he emailed me back and now its mine. He said it is just as nice on the outside as it looks in the pictures. And he will hold it for me until December when I can get up to Hickory to pick it up. Anyone coming to Florida want their gas paid for? Thanks again Al. Think I'll buy a lottery ticket on the way to work today.

Say Lee, I guess I could bring it down if your going to pay for the gas. Looks to be a good buy even if there is a lot of work inside.

Dennis, Thanks for the link.

Gage, Thanks for the offer but I'll have to pass. Would you believe the seller just emailed me and said his brother is coming doen from N.C. at Thanksgiving to within an hour of me. Said he'll tow it down for $100. You betcha. Its been a good day.

Congrats Lee! I personally scored a 1960 Serro Scotty Sportsman Senior just last month. I LOVE vintage trailers

I'm about 4 hours south of JAX on I-95. I'll keep you in mind if anything happens. Thanks.

Well the saga continued. The seller's brother made it as far as Savannah and "His transmission burnt out." We were going to Charleston for a long weekend in December and picked it up on the way back to FLA. The wrecker service that towed the car and trailer in let me leave it at their lot with no storage fee. The 7 pin wiring connector on my truck matched the Shasta's, all the trailer lights worked, and the tires were in good shape. Made it home with no problems. The outside is very decent with new paint and the inside is as advertised - gutted. Do have some of the original interior pieces/parts left to use as patterns but I think we are going totally modern on the inside, all new appliances, cabinets, lights, fixtures, etc. Old on the outside - new on the inside. Now the fun begins. Thanks again Al for the tip. My wife thanks you too. Her comment, "Looks like another project to me."
