This 12 foot, 1961 NORTH Travel Trailer was purchased new by Christy's (SWEET66)Grand Parents. They used it for many years towing it all over the US. They sold it to Christy's parents when they were too old to travel any more. In 1998 Christy's parents gave it to us. We have used it many times to go camping and hunting.

It has electric lights, battery lights and a propane lamp over the dining room. On board water, sink, 3 burner stove, oven, plenty of closet space, and a fridge.

Front dining area converts into a bed that allegedly sleeps two. Rear couch converts into a bed that sleeps 2.

It came from the factory with electric brakes.

My ride was on the FRONT COVER of TheAutoLog.com!

I plan on rebuilding and painting it to match the hot rod Chevy. It will have a Route 66 interior theme with a black & white checker board floor.

I plan on rewiring it with modern LED exterior lights. I want to put a flat screen/DVD unit in it like what's in my Mazda.

I want to be able to tow it behind the Chevy for out of town car shows.
