Hi Brian, Is cost a factor? If so, the square tube aluminum will get expensive really fast, compared to what you can do it with in wood. Also, with square...
Well, we all know there are different viewpoints on that ;-)! I'm not a purist, but I do want it to not leak, and to hold together for the next 30 or so...
HI Brian, I do tend to lean toward the purist approach, generally, but in this case, I was thinking more of your pocket book than anything. As I mentioned,...
Kevin, I'm pretty convinced now that's what'll happen. I like 3M5200, it seems like a bead of that stuff at all the joints, and bonding the interior ply to...
Brian, have you found a source in your area for the aluminum? I need several sheets for a project I hope to begin next year. I need some brake work done to...
Hi Kevin, I'm in Peoria and can get 36x 84 sheets of 26 ga or 48x84. It isn't polished, of course. I can get most any grade special order through Dumont sheet...
Hi David - Thanks very much for the reply and the kind offer. I would like very much to speak with you about Dumont sheet metal and what they could do for me,...
Kevin, I'll contact Mike, the guy I know, and inquire as well. They use sheet with breaks you describe on the "SerroScotty" replicas they build. If he can...
Thanks, Brian. We bought this little 17 foot Holiday House, which my wife now refers to has her trailer, and when I redo it, I would like to reskin it. It's...
Hi Kevin, You might know I'm the guy that restored the other Holiday House for the folks you got yours from, if you got it in El Paso. Contact me when you get...
Hi Larry, Thanks very much for your willingness to share the source with me. I really appreciate it! This one did come from El Paso, and I enjoyed having a...
Looking for a Spartan lover with passion! I have been on blocks for sixty years and looking for someone to get me moving again. Best offer. Located in Rhode...
Yeah, it does, Brian. Still, over the years, I've been the guest of honor at some pretty entertaining barbeques. Sometimes, it turns out to be a good idea to...
I got your back Jaime... I saw this on CL and sent Jaime an email and told her she could find some great adoptive parents here. She is very concerned about...
Hi everyone! I am new to this forum and to trailering. We are looking at a '66 Fireball on Saturday, and the ad says it's a 16'. Has a bathroom, queen bed,...
I'm not familiar with a trailer of 16 feet with a bath and what sounds like complete kitchen plus bunk beds ! My twenty foot self contained travel trailer with...
No idea but here is one listed: _16 Foot Travel Trailer, Camper_ (http://about:blank) 67 for $500 I guess the big thing to look for is water damage... If...
Hello, I'm new to the group as well, but not new to this vintage of vehicle. My husband and I picked up our newly purchased 1966 Cardinal, 13' last night. We...
Linda - Thanks for all that info! Small world, we moved up to Auburn from Concord (Hastings Dr. near the BART tracks). I can't wait to see the Fireball on...

Linda.... Michael brings up a good point about tongue weight and all. I have a '66 Cardinal 17' Deluxe. Dry weight is 2360 lbs. I use the original 5 gal. ...
You are very right, Michael, and in our giddiness and glee over the fact that we now own this little trailer, we have not sat down to calculate much of...
Hi Tom, Indeed it helps tremendously! Oh boy do I have questions for you. Does yours have a pressurized water system? Does it have black water storage or do...
Linda, We use the microwave a lot more than the oven. The microwave is tucked inside the closet in our '65 Aristocrat and stored under the countertop in our...
Hi Linda, Congratulations on your "new" Cardinal. My 17' did have the Nevins Pressurized Water System (many Cardinals did). The pressure pump was removed from...
