History Was given this trailer by my uncle who purchased it slightly used in Florida in the early 1980s. Rough shape when I got it - broken frame rails, wiring shot, etc. - but completely original & "unmolested". Completed frame-off restoration in/out 2013. Have original bill of sale friom Burro, Inc. of Plymouth MN to first owner - price was $4,365.45.

Added independent 12V electrical system w/ deep cycle battery, larger sink and on-demand 12V water pump, added new wood cabinet face frames and cabinet doors, new plwood inserts and cushions. Tried to keep trailer as original as possible, no radical modifications, still simple and functional. Restored the original 2 eye LP stove to working order. Replaced the rusted and nonfunctioning fridge with Coleman upright 12V cooler in same space. Removed nonfunctioning LP heater unit.
