Progress!

Finally, we have the rear wall skin removed and are beginning the rebuild...its getting chilly here at nite and we have had a few hail storms. sleeping in the car is getting a little tiring and I miss being out at the Ranch. I really like being outside and comfy... hanging around someone else's place to get work done sucks and its part of the process this time.

I sure hope I can get you all some photos at some point. this is going to be a kewl trailer when I get it…

Movin movin movin...

I dont know if i can add pictures here so will send into my photo page... the KC made a 30ish mile trip into the nearest town for some assistance.

Finally - after shoveling out sand and crap from the desert...my rescued 1959 Kencraft TT will be moving into town for some real help...my auto mechanic pals are letting me put her in the back lot where we can have easier access to tools, supplies and guys who tinker!

Update!

I'm working on the titling on this baby -- so maybe another 3 weeks before it's all legally mine and stuff.

I've been to Colorado (first time) and back in the past few weeks and yikes this so looks like a lot of work!

I'll still be working things out - and seeing if I can truly afford to do this project -- or at least get it covered up for the winter and work on it next summer?

If anyone is looking for a project and just loves Kencrafts and is…

Rescue

Yesterday I rescued a 1953 Kencraft Travel Trailer!

It's a disaster - with great bones/structure.

Kinda wish I knew more about this rig.

Okay so now that I have been poking around in my project I have a better idea what needs to happen. I will need to rebuild the entire back wall, repair the actual wheel well on the drivers side, three roof panels need replacing, front wall is pretty dry rotted, six windows do not even fit the frame work, the fiberglass roof is… Continue
