Nothing that won't buff out. Just a little TLC and you'll be campin' in no time!

Poor little old TrailManor, I hope somebody can rescue it.

Today we have a member who signs in as HappyTrails. But does anyone remember Happy_Trails from 5 or 10 years ago? He fully rebuilt and restored a TM that didn't look much better than this one. When his extensive repair blog disappeared, MisterP captured a lot of it, and reposted it here

It can be done - though I know that I certainly don't have the skills or the patience.

That must be younger than our '86 - it has the rounded windows. I hope someone can do something with it but it looks pretty far gone. :( We plan on doing the rear shell wood replacement sometime this summer, and hopefully painting the outside of the Origami. Also the toilet (we're either doing the Sealand replacement or just replacing the seal on the Thetford as it's leaking at the base, unsure yet) and hopefully, removing the carpet and putting down vinyl or laminate. So many projects, so little time. :p

And parked right next to it are several candidates for the TV! A perfectly matched set. :)

See what happens when you don't lift it up right!#^!! Gotta watch those anger issues when things don't go right......... Poor ol TM, if it could just talk wonder what stories it could share??
