Trailer Parts Organ Donor

My dad found an ad on CL for Vintage Trailer Parts $80.00. The ad showed Hehr windows, a few jalousies, a door, some drip caps, a table and some other misc. parts. SCORE. With hopes that one of the windows can be used as a replacement for Zippy's missing rear window, I made the long drive out to get the parts.

When I arrived I heard the sad story of how the parts came to be on CL. Mike bought a vintage trailer in great shape for his wife. He planned on doing a little bit of work and started with the replacing the floor. To do so, he had to disconnect the frame from the trailer, so he removed the skins. Around Christmas time, a wind storm hit and blew the skins around the yard, damaging them beyond repair. Mike's dreams of a vintage trailer for his wife were dead, so he decided to sell the salvageable parts to someone who might need them. Like a post Christmas miracle, Zippy Lee is the recipient of the precious organs from Mike's dead trailer. R.I.P. Mike's Trailer.
