The saying “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure” rings true for this 1973 Prowler camper. Imgur user ranbn8 bought the vintage trailer off Craigslist for only $1,000 and gave it a total (and much needed) restoration.
“I had been looking for a small single-axle vintage camper for awhile,” The owner shared on his Imgur gallery. “These vintage campers are getting hard to find and those that aren’t completely rotted beyond repair sell for a premium.
I guess something is only worth what people will pay for it. I was one of six people to answer the ad that was posted early AM. I showed up with the cash first and it was sold before noon. Although it had been sitting outside for a few years, it was the size I was looking for and was repairable.”
You can’t have a battery inside a camper and the 2 6 volts certainly don’t look to be vented outside !
Batteries inside the living space? Lead acid batteries produce flammable hydrogen gas when they discharge
Love it!
I have a newer (2015) Prowler…
I’m glad the Prowler brand lives on!
Very nice restoration. Brings up memories of my parents first bumper pull trailer.
