1978 Trillium 4500 for sale in Texas $5000

I bought this little jewell couple weeks ago from as I understand folks who bought it new in Canada.It has been setting for long time I believe.
My information is limited on the history.I have last registration (1996).I also have Bill Of Sale.
Took paper work to my local county court house and was told I needed inspection from US Customs before they could give me Texas title and tags.Its been 17 years and they want me or previous owner to produce
an inspection paper.Long story but I have not give up.Working with attorney hoping to get it registered.
I have decided too try and sale it too someone in Canada or another state that can get it registered.
From reading about this RV here and other places I have learned a lot about it.I will try to tell you the major things you might want to know.
First the interior is still in very good condition.The exterior just needs cleaned and waxed.
The fridge works but not good on electric has propane so I have not tried
that,have not tried heat,no air conditioner,have not hooked water to it but will tomorrow.probably needs tires(look good but old),running lights work,windows work,very good RV just needs some minor work and good exterior cleaning.
From my reading here I believe the frame has been recalled and looks good.Yours for $5000 Located near Ft Worth Texas

Which province was it last registered in Billy?
The US customs inspection paper may be something as simple as verifying the serial #'s and safety tags.
Search for posts by Raya on importing into the USA, I'm pretty sure she describes the process and what they did.

Register it as a "home made" trailer, if you can get away with it. In NY, the DMV never sees the trailer first hand and an independant person does the inspections (your local gas station type of thing). In NY, you'd be good to go.

Best of luck.

Sounds to me that you bought this trailer for a song and are trying to flip it for a quick, large profit and really need the money fast. It is certainly your prerogative to do so, however, in order for people to properly evaluate the shape of the trailer, pictures are a necessity.

You said you posted pictures to this site, but, they didn't take. Please retry.

Welcome to the forum!

Thanks

Spanke
