Just bought this mity lite "take five"

[spaghettiroad]

It's a 1984. I can't find another "take five " like it..... Am I alone alone alone ?....

WOW! Look so credibly "Jetson" and cool!

[Kai in Seattle]

Wow! Congratulations!

Wow ,what a find . Is the door hinged at the top?
How about a picture with the door open.
Never seen anything like it. Must be very light.

[Evergreengirl]

Great find. It looks to be in really good condition too. You'll get lots of attention with that trailer wherever you go. Would love to see it in person. Hope you can come to some rallies here in the PNW.

She weighs about 950lbs. Can be moved around by hand easily enough. They went with a leaf axle.

There is one for sale on Kijijji BC, Canada right now.

I think it's the same one....... Got that same (what I think is a) custom interior and even the same 90's automobile inspired hubcaps and it looks like the pictures are taken in a wide open area like maybe an airport. Maybe sold it to this poster and has not taken add down. Maybe a scam happening? Or maybe it's identical twin shows up at the same time this one showed up. Strange. I got excited there for a minute. Maybe poster will enlighten us. Thanks for sharing find.

I'm the new owner ! Previous owner has not removed kijjiji add....

Kevin,
You know any history on these? I'd be interested in knowing your pros and cons with yours !

Congrats! Awesome trailer. Good price.

Kevin, What's the latest on your Mity Lite? Maybe I've missed it, but I haven't seen you post any progress on it since you bought it as a "love at first sight" project two years ago. Have you finished it? Are you camping in it? Curious minds want to know.... Dale

Great design has to pull easily. I really like the shape. Good find.
Enjoy!

Ive turned a little trailer into a big project and it has not been the priority I wish it could be. It still has a way to go so I have not yet used it. But looking for one for sale or in someone's backyard that might sell. One that is complete so I can just go enjoy until I can finish this one.

The two things so far I know to watch out for is a little sidewall sag that will cause the entry door to not close tight at bottom rear of door and the second is the trailer frame to crack where the A-frame attaches to the body cradle (not sure if there is a proper name for that). I think when they got from the Take Five and started building the SpaceMaster the construction got a little better. Not much is known about history or how many were made.

One sold a number of months ago in two or three days for like 6k. The guy that sold it got it at an estate sale, fixed it up a little and painted it solid Blue to sell it......so that one is kicking around the Seattle area some where. There is one in Tacoma area and one in Anacortes area too. So that makes a total of five around Washington that I know of, assuming the one you just bought from B.C. You did not travel real far to buy it.
It would be great to arrange a Mity-Lite camp out. Although I would have to glue a picture of my trailer on my tent and spray paint Mity-Lite on the side of it or something.
Best wishes. Enjoy!

Heh Kevin,

Where is your VIN number on yours? I can't find the location....

[kevin57]

There was a 2x3 inch ID sticker on the pass side front bottom corner next to the entry door. Mine was pretty much unreadable. I was not able to find any thing else on mine.

[TheWanderers]

Wow, nice TT. Interesting doorway...

[spaghettiroad]

FOUND THE VIN. thanks

I used to own her. I redid all the cushions myself. Oh I miss her. I sold her to before I had my daughter. Your post says 2016 and it was sitting at the air port for around 6 years. It sounds like the person who bought it off me didn't use it very long. How sad. I sold her in 2009.

It's funny the pictures are even from my original post when I sold her. That's was my parents carport.
