When I first decided on making a website of Vintage Travel Trailers for Sale, I thought, “Who in the world would be looking for old travel trailers”. And much to my surprise, there are quite a few people still interested in the vintage trailers. As I read more and more, my mind went back to 1965 when I was just a girl of eighteen. Oh what a great life we had back then, huh? My dad had retired from the USMC and looked up an old friend of his from the Marines. His name was Red Martin, just in case anyone remembers him. His wife was Maggie and their son was Butch. Also, Jim and Laverne Weis were great fun to be around and also involved with Kenskill travel trailers. Anyway, on with my story. We moved from Orange, Ca. to Granada Hills, Ca. There my Dad, Mom and myself nestled into our new life of being civilians. We moved there so Dad could be associated with Kenskill Travel Trailers. He attended tradeshows to show off the new travel trailers for sale. I can remember one tradeshow, in particular, that I attended with them. It was at Dodger’s Stadium in the huge parking lot with all of the new travel trailers and some vintage travel trailers from the 1940’s. We were all very close back then in the travel trailer business. Most of the time, my Dad would be whistling the song “Trailers for Sale or Rent”. Great times were in abundance! This website will be here for remembrances of what the vintage trailers for sale used to be like.
The classic trailers at that time were more of the long long trailer and Kenskill was at the height of making the 18’ classic enclosed trailer for smaller families to be able to go camping for the weekend. Kenskill was a big name in the 1960’s in California. A much loved travel trailer family adored by everyone back then. The travel trailer supplies and equipment were top of the line for those days. The used airstream classic travel trailer was the biggest competition. Kenskill made quality, and had trailer supplies that were always available. Sadly, the vintage camping trailers are all but a few. You might be able to at least see one if you are lucky enough to get to a big trailer tradeshow in a large city. They are truly something to see, let alone own. I guess if I really added up the years, you could call them antique travel trailers now. But I won’t, because that will make me feel too old!
Let’s not forget the vintage airstream trailers. They are also a true work of art with their curved wood panels in the interior to the flashy silver streak trailers on the outside. A used Airstream classic travel trailer is a legend in the truest sense of classic travel trailers. The Airstream trailer following is huge among vintage travel trailer associations. You can always find trailer supplies through catalogs to spruce yours up, if you are lucky enough to own one.
Just a few more words on vintage trailers for sale. There are sites online that you will be able to find trailer supplies. I almost forgot to mention two more classic trailers. They are the vintage tag-a-long camper and the 1951 vintage vagabond trailer. Both were wonderful in the days of slow living, long weekends and lots of family time traveling around in the classic trailers of the day.
Thanks for reading my article on Vintage Travel Trailers and maybe having some of your memories take you back to those great times. Wait, I think I hear someone whistling “Trailers for Sale or Rent”!
To fond memories of vintage travel trailers for sale,

1962 Metzendorf Trailer
Welcome to my road to renovating my 1962 Metzendorf Travel Trailer. The Metzendorf is a unique trailer in that it is only 6 foot 4 inches high, small enough to fit in a garage. Mine is the 15 foot version.
