For Sale: 1947 All Aluminum Trailer Company Teardrop

I have a 1947 "All Aluminum Trailer Company" teardrop for sale. Needs total restoration or use as-is if you are adventurous or like to slum it. I am located in Palm Beach County, Florida. $1000.00 firm

Sorry about the pictures, but this is where it has been sitting since the hurricane.
Note: except for the floor (wood) and the frame (steel), this trailer is all aluminum.

Depending, the price is about right. Wish it was closer to California.

Good luck with the sale and have a good day.

Thanks Gage,
It needs the wood floors replaced, lower body panels fixed and fenders replaced or repaired. The fenders would have to be remade as the originals to keep it authentic or just get some trailer fenders for it. It has the original gas stove in the back, but the "icebox is deteriorated.
I have $1000.00 in it, so I will have to keep it if I can't get my money out of it.

George, I think your mistaken about the make. Pretty sure it's an 'All Aluminum Trailer Company' teardrop. Not to many of them around. The American teardrop is a fiberglass pod type teardrop made in the 70's. Below is what I think is the same teardrop (make) that was at Minden and is out of California.


Have a good day.

Like I said, even with all that has to be done, that is a right price.

I stand corrected. That is exactly what it is. It says that right on the metal tag. I was at work when I posted this and should have called home to get the information.

Here are some more pics. As I said. It needs total restoration. Not for the faint at heart. A diehard teardropper could probably use it as is.
