Our trailer was always kept under a metal awning cover and only used once after the 2019 restoration.

We are selling this lovingly restored vintage trailer in our retirement as we have finally slowed down. We have enjoyed traveling and participating in vintage trailer shows up and down the West Coast. We spent a lot of time and money restoring this 1957 Flying Cloud with true to the era components and modern upgrades (like the refurbished original Servel fridge upgraded and converted to dometic fridge), and have always kept the trailer covered. During restoration everything was inspected, repaired or replaced, new insulation, new belly pan, new electrical, new plumbing and much more. This trailer is roadworthy for another 65 years.
