Leaking Boler

Thanks, Kurt. Mine is in the form of 12 3456, with none of the numbers really making much sense in terms of a sequential "hull number." I guess that would have been pretty hard to keep up with numerous plants going.


Mine was "born" and lived all his (its?) life in Winnipeg prior to my purchase. So I gave him a good taste of the US just bringing him home

I have an update!!!! Thanks to Brandy for giving me the courage to peel back the ensolite, I have now done, nothing wrong there, I simulated rain to find that a bracket in the window is broken and that is where the water is getting in! So the ensolite can dry while it's peeled back and I will have to locate either some new windows or rig up the old.... Thanks all! I was terrified to pull back the ensolite but now that I have done it, not so bad. I am all pumped to deck out my little egg.

YEAH! and it didn't take you three months like me! Great Job.

I've been tracking the boler American serial #'s looking for clues. Most are 4 digits starting with either a 3 or a 5 with one exception and that's a 3 digit starting with 3. I postulate for the boler American the first digit signifies the plant and the remainder the sequential #. I can't find any starting with a 1, 2, or 4 and believe that plant 3 was either Tri-Fab in Tripoli or Eveland's in Backus, with plant 5 being the other.

Stretching this perhaps planned plants 1 2 and 4 became the Eco in Aurora, NE the Minit/Perris in CA and something up in OR

Any chance yours might be the mold # and sequential #? My understanding is that each mold effectively produced one body per day. That would make for somewhere between 220 and 365 trailers per year.
