Are you shopping for a vintage trailer? Before you buy vintage or even start looking, there are serious things to consider. 

Because I have renovated vintage trailers several times over, friends always ask me most of the important questions. I could answer some of your questions but know that once you start digging you find more problems…every single time! I always tell them to thoroughly research their limits financially, physically and emotionally. 

Enjoy this gallery of some of the vintage trailers I’ve loved and hated at the same time. I knew my limits but also had many surprises with every one of these vintage trailers.

There is nothing more nostalgic then camping exactly as your adventurous grandparents camped back in the day. Also, the satisfaction of reviving that old hunk-of-junk is second to NONE!  But do your homework, research everything, be prepared to walk away if you’re not absolutely sure of your skills, workspace, and budget. It can get costly in so many ways.

Please go straight to this article from GoRVing to take in some more trailer buying considerations before you buy vintage.
