1970's trailer

Found a travel trailer for sale. 24 foot needs work. Going to gut and fix roof leak. Future piggy bank for me. I keep seeing roadside treasures discarded by our throw away society. I can begin to reclaim these items for refurbishment. IMO this is the best option for me. Won't clutter my yard with eyesore and it's a onetime investment I hope pays off quickly. I have a small yard and restrictive zoning laws so hoping this is agreeable to my neighbors.

So you're planning on just altering it's purpose to a towable Ryder van type vehicle. Store your road trip finds in it? :thumbup:

I have a van. I would park this in driveway to conceal all my finds thus keeping eyesore to minimum. I have been seeing quantities of metal, household items etc. On regular basis which I pass up because I'm trying to avoid looking like "Sanford Arms".
