Sorry I did not respond sooner.  I have not been able to determine exactly what year it is except I believe it is either 1965 or 66 Sportsman Model.  Your camper looks beautiful.

Hi Kevin,

Thank you for your comment.  I like diner blue!  I cannot find any information on the year of our camper.  I have the VIN and DMV said that I could only find out the year if I registered it.  We are not doing that because it is set up in our backyard to camp with our beagle.  I would have to take it to a weigh station to have the weight for DMV and without that, they will not give me any info.  I also had the old plate from 1983 and they said it was too old to look up.  I did find a Canada Dry box inside the camper that held the spare parts.  It is the same diner blue color and it had a sticker on it that says Montgomery Ward/Western Field, with a June 1965 date stamped into the box.  The label on the outside of the door says it is a Corsair.  I ordered a Corsair brochure from 1966 and our model is not in it.  I ordered camp magazines from 1965 and can't find it there, either.

I am new to this site and I do not believe you have to buy, restore and flip trailers to be on here.  If you do, then I shouldn't be here, ha.ha.  My name is Rusticbuilder because I build rustic furniture for a hobby.

 

Your Metzendorf camper is beautiful!

You have a beautiful little camper, I love the 1950's diner blue(What I call it)...You did a beautiful job. I am new to this site, I uploaded pics of my 1973 Metzendorf Camper,however, I guess I didn't realize that it's about restoring several trailers. I only have one,but I would love to restore more if I could , but I don't have a garage. I restored mine outside (Inbetween storms) which made it very difficult. Do you have to buy, restore, and flip trailers to be on here?...I guess i'm a little confused!
