15

And I travel with my two

16

17

You know, we spend a lot of time

talking about these new rigs

18

that are coming off the lines.

19

We talk about build quality

from what's being put out by

20

the manufacturers nowadays.

21

And we spend a lot of time talking

about tech and new stuff that's

22

happening in the RV business.

23

But I want to take a step.

24

Backwards today and

not just one step back.

25

Let's go decades and decades back.

26

Let's go back to those classic vintage

camper trailers that we all love to see.

27

And we have so many questions about,

and who better to talk about that then

28

vintage camper trailer, mag trailers,

magazine founder himself, Paul, welcome

29

to the RV dreaming podcast, Paul.

30

Vintage Camper Trailers:

Thank you so much.

31

We appreciate being here.

32

Stuart Doing Stuff: No problem.

33

So real quick.

34

Tell me about your magazine

35

Vintage Camper Trailers: Well the vintage

camper trailers magazine, um came about

36

when I wrote an article for another

Magazine because I thought I had vented

37

and had invented a new hobby I had an old

car and I had bought an old trailer to

38

take my kids camping in Mainly because

it was cheap not because I thought

39

it was cool or anything And i'm still

writing that article for that magazine

40

About 14 years later and somewhere in

the middle there, I decided, well, maybe

41

the trailer guys need a similar type

publication that tells them when the

42

rallies are, you know, kind of picture

a hot rod magazine shows pictures of

43

restored trailers, that type of thing.

44

So we've been doing the magazine

and print and digital now for

45

well over we're in our 12th year.

46

Wow.

47

And so you've got the magazine and I know

you also produce a lot of rallies as well.

48

We do, we do . We, we produce a lot.

49

I'm gonna have to take a look at

that moving forward because we've

50

got a lot on our calendar right now.

51

But we do, essentially for us, a rally

is, I always say it's like a classic

52

car show, but you get to sleep at it.

53

So you've gotta be nice to people

and, and, 'cause you're gonna be

54

waking up with 'em for a few days.

55

So we do several days, typically

Thursday through Sunday, we have,

56

uh, live bands, we have activities.

57

Our events are typically heavily themed.

58

So it might be a Western theme

or we've got a British invasion

59

theme or a Renaissance fair

theme among others coming up.

60

But, uh, yeah, they're, they're a blast,

you know, over the years it's just become

61

a lot of good friends getting together.

62

Several times a year to camp.

63

Stuart Doing Stuff: Yeah, I worked in a

radio station back when I was younger.

64

It was, uh, oldies, fifties,

sixties, uh, era kind of station.

65

And I remember doing classic car

shows where traditionally restored

66

or older fifties, sixties, even some

forties, you know, cars, and it was

67

just a lot of fun to, to kind of see

these classics and, and restored.

68

And you guys, that's kind

of what these rallies are.

69

Vintage Camper Trailers: They are.

70

And a lot of our guys actually

tow with the vintage cars.

71

So, um, it's, it turns into a, you know,

a big vintage festival and the people even

72

dress up, especially if there's a theme.

73

So at our, our Western rally,

we have a country band.

74

People will dress up in,

in vintage country gear.

75

They'll decorate their

trailers in that fashion.

76

Um, next year we have a Christmas in the

trailer park, which is a decorate with

77

vintage trailer, vintage Christmas stuff.

78

We'll have an ugly sweater contest.

79

We'll have a potluck, uh, Christmas dinner

and, and, and just a bunch of goofy fun.

80

It's really, if, if you're not willing

to come and kind of be silly, it's.

81

Not for you, because it's just

a goofy time of everything

82

from costumes to decorations.

83

Stuart Doing Stuff: So if I wanted

to come to one of these rallies, do I

84

have to have a vintage trailer or can

I come in my other RVs or place for me

85

to park and camp out with everybody?

86

Or do I need to go find my own spot?

87

Vintage Camper Trailers: Yeah,

usually, you know, our, our events

88

have gotten so big that we still

try to reserve some sites for new

89

trailers because we do want to.

90

So as long as we've got room, we welcome

people that want to come and play.

91

And, and a lot of times those people come

in, in their new white box and they end up

92

falling in love with what we're doing and

ended up getting a vintage trailer too.

93

But yeah, usually we've got some space.

94

We do a big rally in San Dimas.

95

That's 280 vintage trailers

and about 150 classic cars.

96

And we probably hold back.

97

10 percent or so for,

for, for new trailers.

98

And, and we're pretty liberal.

99

I mean, you know, we let the retros in

and the fiberglass stuff and, and, uh,

100

a lot of those aren't as old as some

of them, but they kind of fit the vibe.

101

Stuart Doing Stuff: You know, and that

kind of asks, brings up my next question.

102

What is considered

nowadays a vintage trailer?

103

Vintage Camper Trailers: Yeah.

104

So somewhere in the, in the 1970s.

105

The design of trailers really

started to change and, and, and

106

the design of everything, the

use of plastics in, in, in stuff.

107

And, and so you went from a trailer

that was around you, what we'd call a

108

canned ham shape, or before that a bread

loaf shaped trailer to square boxes.

109

With, you know, white sides

and plastic interiors.

110

And so depending on the event and, and,

and who you ask 72, 75, 70s, somewhere

111

around there is when they really started

to change and they just didn't really

112

have those warm wood interiors and the

classic pastel colors and, you know,

113

the stuff that really looks vintage.

114

Stuart Doing Stuff: Maybe this is a

subjective question, but to be vintage.

115

You talked about restoring.

116

You guys also do a lot of

restoring of classic trailers.

117

Can I restore a trailer

to be considered vintage?

118

Utilizing the same color schemes or

the same materials, but also add maybe

119

some modern conveniences like solar

and lithium or does it need to be pure

120

era style to be considered vintage

121

Vintage Camper Trailers: were were really

non discriminating as far as that goes.

122

Because in today's camping world

and things, you're going to need

123

and want some modern conveniences.

124

And so I just saw a beautiful

47 Spartan Manor this last

125

weekend that was stunning to me.

126

But that model didn't

even come with a bathroom.

127

And they were able to incorporate

a bathroom in their brand new

128

floor plan and everything.

129

And so that's a real common upgrade.

130

And of course, air

conditioning and things.

131

But a lot of the trailers

back in the 40s and 50s, Were

132

designed for people to live in.

133

So 25 foot Spartan Manor, for instance,

doesn't have a bathroom because it was

134

made to go into a trailer park where you

would have had a bathhouse that you could

135

use and you might live there for several

months while you worked at the factory

136

until you move to go work somewhere else.

137

And so Uh, some of these, uh, like I have

138

more of a mobile home back in the day.

139

People didn't necessarily camp in it.

140

So we've added tanks and things to make

it much more campable, but from the

141

exterior, it looks like a vintage trailer.

142

Now there's...

143

Flat screen TVs hidden in, in

closets and things, but to just walk

144

in, it looks straight outta 1955.

145

Stuart Doing Stuff: You know that,

that's kind of an interesting,

146

'cause it is a subjective thing.

147

It's kinda like if you're restoring

a classic car, but you wanna put

148

in a, a stereo with Bluetooth

and a CD player or whatever, or,

149

Vintage Camper Trailers: or

upgrade a motor, you know?

150

Yeah.

151

Have a motor that will

run on today's freeways.

152

You know, I mean, so, Yeah,

it's, uh, there's both.

153

There's certainly both.

154

Stuart Doing Stuff: You know what, I

would ask, what shocks you the most

155

between, like, the progression between

these trailers that you were saying

156

pre 1974 stuff and the newer ones?

157

I mean, we know they're getting bigger,

but what would you say as far as the

158

build quality of the stuff that's

coming off the line now as opposed to

159

the stuff that was produced back then?

160

Vintage Camper Trailers:

Well, they are getting bigger.

161

My 28 foot Spartan is considered a

big trailer in the vintage world.

162

And if I'm in a truck stop with,

with a modern trailer, I'm dwarfed.

163

I mean, it's, you know, it's minuscule.

164

We do have little tiny, you

know, a 14, 16 foot Shasta is

165

a real common trailer for us.

166

And they don't have a bathroom

and they don't, most of them

167

even have a refrigerator.

168

They ran with blocks of ice and

things, but it, the new ones.

169

You know, I mean, they are what they are.

170

They're coming off a production line.

171

There's certainly different

levels of quality, but man,

172

these, these vintage trailers,

some of them have lasted already.

173

For decades and decades.

174

And they were built with real wood,

real metal, you know, their, their arch

175

nemesis is water, but if they don't

get wet, they'd probably last forever.

176

You know, we're still finding barn finds

sitting in, in sheds and things that

177

look like they're off the showroom floor.

178

We were featuring one of

the next magazine that.

179

Still has the tags on the

seats, and it's a, it's a 40,

180

I want to say a 49 Travelees.

181

It's still got the original tags on the

seats from when it was manufactured.

182

I mean the thing's just an

incredible time capsule.

183

. Stuart Doing Stuff: You know, so

who are these vintage trailers for?

184

It doesn't sound like a modern

day full time digital nomad would

185

probably be very comfortable

in one of these smaller things.

186

Are these mostly for weekenders or

retirees or just people looking to try and

187

get out or who's buying these nowadays?

188

Vintage Camper Trailers: You know, I, I, I

think it's, I think it's people that have

189

some connection to the culture and, you

know, I, I, I describe us as old souls.

190

I mean, I've always had old cars.

191

I honestly, I mean, I like camping.

192

All right.

193

But honestly, to me, it's about the

vintage trailers and the classic cars.

194

That's where my real passion lies.

195

Not necessarily in the camping, although

we camp, you know, we have a cab

196

over and we camp otherwise as well.

197

But I think that it's, it's more of

a, more of an activity for most people

198

going to the shows, going to the

events, you know, for a few hundred

199

bucks, you can go for the whole weekend

and get a pancake breakfast and live

200

music and see your friend it's even

though those prices have gone up,

201

especially on the West coast, truthfully.

202

It's a few hundred dollars

for several days of fun and

203

entertainment and camping and food.

204

And, um, even though we've seen

those prices rise, you know, really

205

it's not, not a huge investment.

206

Uh, if you can find a little trailer,

fix it up yourself and then go

207

meet a whole group of people that

will welcome you in and you can go

208

have fun with a few times a year.

209

Stuart Doing Stuff: I'm looking

on your website right now.

210

And on your website, there's a section

where there's a classifieds where people

211

can buy and sell different trailers.

212

And I'm looking at some of these and it,

it really is just a blast from the past.

213

Vintage Camper Trailers: Yeah.

214

Yeah.

215

And by and large, that section of our

website is our most traveled by far.

216

I mean, people looking to buy selling,

um, we just opened up the ability to

217

take your trailer to auction for you

with And so the classifieds are really.

218

A big part of what we do in helping

people buy and sell trailers.

219

Stuart Doing Stuff: So I would

love to get your help on this.

220

Okay.

221

Cause I'm a total novice when it comes

to these old school trailers, other

222

than I think they're really cool.

223

All right.

224

So I'm looking at one here.

225

It's a very rare 1948.

226

Vintage Spartan trailer, everything

is new, clean title, pink slips, ready

227

to go, designer features, and it looks

awesome, the shine on this thing is,

228

is amazing, and it looks great, I

can't get the photos to load right now,

229

but that just might be my internet.

230

Um, the um, the thing on this

is uh, 125, 000, the asking

231

price, I'm trying to find out.

232

How, how are these valued booked at?

233

I mean, is it, we know that

a lot, let me rephrase that.

234

I think a lot of times on classic

cars, there's, there's a book,

235

you know, like a blue book, just

like you have these normal cars.

236

But as any, as, as anything else,

something's only worth as much as

237

someone's willing to pay for it.

238

So if I wanted to do this, if I

wanted to restore one of these

239

trailers, what makes, yeah.

240

These old ones valuable and, and

what is it that, that, what, what

241

is it that holds their value?

242

Vintage Camper Trailers: Well,

you hit the nail on the head.

243

They're worth what you can get for them.

244

And we've seen just a crazy escalation

in prices go up and everybody keeps

245

pushing it and pushing it and pushing it.

246

You know, it doesn't necessarily.

247

just because you put a lot of money

into anything mean that you're going

248

to get that money back necessarily

and so you've got to be smart

249

about that doing a restoration.

250

I just consulted with somebody selling

an Airstream trailer the other day

251

and they literally want almost double

of what That type of trailer usually

252

goes for trying to justify the money

they put into it in their time.

253

And unfortunately, if nobody's

willing to pay it, it doesn't matter.

254

You know, and so trailers up over the six

figure mark, you know, obviously there's

255

a more limited customer base for that.

256

And a lot of those end up.

257

Going to the auction to the bigger

collectors and stuff that that will

258

bid them up But most vintage trailers

a finished vintage trailer that you can

259

camp in that's you know reasonably clean

and stuff are probably going to be more

260

in the you know, six to 16, 000 range and

then you know up around the 30 40, 000

261

mark you can get something pretty darn

nice and and then beyond that, you know

262

You're looking at collector stuff or maybe

it's loaded with Solar and boondocking

263

and, and, and other bells and whistles.

264

Bathrooms make a big difference

if it's got a bathroom in it.

265

It will bring markedly

more than if it does not.

266

So yeah, there's some factors Spartans and

aluminum frame trailers will bring more,

267

cause they're just more durable, you know,

like your airstreams and your streamlines

268

and your silver streaks and, and those,

they're just a more durable going down

269

the road, you know, they're not going to

wiggle apart like, like a, a wooden frame

270

trailer may have more of a propensity

to, so yeah, all of those things.

271

And.

272

They're just worth what

people will pay for them.

273

Stuart Doing Stuff: I'm looking at one

and and I see a lot that are in your

274

price range So the ones i'm pulling

out are more exceptions, so don't get

275

scared There are exceptions on there,

yes, there there are exceptions i'm

276

looking at one that is marked as sold

277

vintage travel trailer fully restored?

278

This thing's amazing It's

sold the asking price on this.

279

I don't know if that's

the sole price 175 000

280

Yeah, this thing looks

like a spaceship, man.

281

This is really cool.

282

Vintage Camper Trailers: Yes.

283

And, and so that bolus

did sell in that range.

284

I don't know what the final price was,

but that's a professional builder with.

285

Lots of credentials and a bolus is

literally, uh, for most people in

286

this hobby, that one of the Holy

Grail trailers, I mean, there's a

287

handful of them, um, they're highly

sought after that one in particular.

288

Um, I saw it being built

and it was literally.

289

Fabricated better than brand new, but

with all original styling and really

290

just a massive attention to detail.

291

And, and this builder has a

reputation that they demand,

292

you know, a higher price.

293

And I, I do know that they wouldn't

have sold that trailer if they didn't

294

get awful close to that price though.

295

Stuart Doing Stuff: I mean, it's

on the, uh, vintage camper trailers

296

website on the classified section.

297

If you want to look at these photos

and we can probably link it into

298

the show notes, but yeah, I'm just

going through these pictures, man.

299

This thing is gorgeous.

300

It's absolutely.

301

Yes, it is.

302

Vintage Camper Trailers: And it's

like, it's honestly better in person.

303

I mean, it's, it's the pictures are nice.

304

That was at our big rally in San Dimas

last year where they took those, but

305

yeah, it's, it's a stunning trailer

and all of their trailers are, I mean,

306

that's the type of quality they build.

307

Stuart Doing Stuff: Yeah.

308

I, I, I.

309

I have a, a friend, two of 'em, as

a matter of fact, that went out and

310

this might not be considered vintage

and it's definitely not a trailer, but

311

there's only, I think they researched

probably only a dozen left in the world.

312

They picked up these, uh, it's a rev con.

313

Okay.

314

And I don't know if

you're familiar with them.

315

Absolutely.

316

. You know, and, and I remember

we were, we were at an event and

317

they, the two of them, we were

all talking and they're like, we

318

should have a rev con reunion rally.

319

And it's like, It's it right here.

320

The only two that are, you know, that

are running in the United States are both

321

right here, right now, you know, and,

and so it's interesting to see as we move

322

maybe into the next decade as those, I

think they were built in the eighties,

323

you know, tack on another decade of ages.

324

Those are the ones that, that are

considered older, more vintage, still

325

on the road, still up and running.

326

Vintage Camper Trailers: Yeah, and and

motorhomes we have a little forgiveness

327

for and I think revcons even dated back

into the 70s, but we have Um, like at our

328

san dimas rally, we have a whole section

of the gmc rvs those big tandem axle gmcs

329

um, and they're mid 70s and Yeah, they

they continue to build some pretty cool.

330

Uh, rvs even a little later into

the 70s and 80s that still kind

331

of have a Classic vibe to him.

332

And the next issue of the magazine,

we have a 72 Barth, which is a

333

neat brick RV that a guy redid.

334

Yeah, we love, I mean, we're

Vintage Camper Trailers is the

335

name, but we like the RVs and

the vans and stuff just as much.

336

Stuart Doing Stuff: There's a trend

growing on Airbnb for unique, uh,

337

kind of things, and I've heard of

people buying these vintage trailers

338

and putting them just on their land.

339

Maybe they have two or three or five

or whatever acres, and they just

340

put these trailers on the land and

they're renting them out overnight

341

for hundreds of dollars a night.

342

Are you familiar with any of those?

343

Vintage Camper Trailers: Uh

have stayed in several of them.

344

Um just gave away packages at our event

last weekend for uh, free two night

345

stays for a couple of them procure

trailers for some of them and um, Yeah,

346

it's a it's a huge deal people love it.

347

I love it when we travel we try to

find one and I've stayed in them around

348

the country and we've seen uh, wedding

venues With six or eight trailers out

349

there that the bridal party can stay in.

350

And then they have the

weddings on their grounds.

351

There's campgrounds that offer multiple

vintage trailers for overnight stays.

352

Yeah.

353

People, you know, people like

that connection with the old

354

stuff and it is great eye candy.

355

I mean, I'm sure a lot of people that

subscribe to our magazine have no

356

intention of owning a vintage trailer per

se, but, but, but they're fun to look at.

357

Stuart Doing Stuff: You have a lot

of followers on social media, mostly

358

because of the images, and it is

really just cool to scroll through

359

all of these and look at Things that

I've never seen in real life, but just

360

go, wow, those are, are so amazing.

361

What are your social handles?

362

If people wanted to go

and check those out?

363

Vintage Camper Trailers: It's

all vintage camper trailers.

364

So vintage camper trailers.

365

com at vintage camper trailers

on Instagram and Facebook.

366

And then we have groups and

things under the same name.

367

So yeah, we're pretty easy to find.

368

Everything's accessible

through the main website.

369

Of course.

370

Stuart Doing StuffS: I'm just

looking at some of these.

371

What are your personal favorites?

372

Vintage Camper Trailers: I,

I would have to say that, uh,

373

number one, I like unique stuff.

374

We've really, we just

became empty nesters.

375

So, we've kind of reduced our big

collection down to something more

376

manageable so we can travel more.

377

Our main trailer...

378

is a 1955 Spartan and I'm really a Spartan

guy, probably I would say at heart.

379

And then we've got the original trailer

380

We bought a Shasta from the original

family that we've stayed in contact with.

381

For 15 years since we bought it.

382

And so some of those pieces

we'll never get rid of.

383

We've got a vagabond, a 48 vagabond

that we'll never get rid of.

384

And, and then I have a handful of

what I think are just neat little

385

unique, really rare tent type trailers.

386

So they're easy to store.

387

They're small, they're good

for displays and stuff.

388

And, and, and they're very unique, but

I didn't say the short answer to the

389

question is I'm kind of a Spartan guy.

390

I like the Spartan trailers.

391

Stuart Doing Stuff: So on these rallies,

you talk about like, I love looking at

392

the photos, but like you said earlier,

you got to see these things in person.

393

So if I want to come to these rallies,

but I don't want to camp or I I've

394

got other things, can I, do you

just, do you do day passes or is

395

there a fee or how does that work?

396

Vintage Camper Trailers: Our, our

rallies are like most, and I would

397

check with every rally because

there could be variations, but

398

typically our drill is on Saturday.

399

From 10 a.

400

m.

401

until 2 p.

402

m.

403

You can walk in and look around like

you were at a car show and most of the

404

owners will certainly engage with you and

answer questions and many, many will let

405

you into their trailers to look around.

406

There's always trailers

for sale to at rallies.

407

And if you are looking to possibly

get into the hobby, I would strongly

408

recommend that you walk into a few

trailers and get a sense of the space.

409

Some have taller roofs, some have

rounded walls, some have straight walls.

410

I would try to get a sense for the

space and what you really want.

411

Don't just go buy something because it's

the first thing you see on Craigslist

412

and, and you gotta have it because it

might not be the best trailer for you.

413

If you go walk in and out of a

few and get a sense for the space.

414

I think you're better off.

415

So yeah, at our rallies and most

rallies, I would say there is some open

416

house period where you can just come

in and look around and talk to people.

417

Stuart Doing Stuff: You know,

I think that's the same advice

418

that we give to people looking

to buy a new trailer nowadays.

419

You have to go and see them or rent

one or, or go to one of these little

420

lots where you can stay in a vintage

one overnight and make your pros and

421

cons list, you know, cause no one.

422

Camps and RVs the same way and so you got

to find something that meets your needs

423

Vintage Camper Trailers: I would also

add just as an aside if you are gonna buy

424

something free isn't necessarily here Bet,

you know spend as much as you can afford

425

to spend to get something that's more

decent and campable because Sometimes free

426

is free for a reason, and unless you just

get real lucky, you're better off spending

427

a little more money to get something

that's usable that you can kind of finish.

428

Unless you've got great skills and

you're just gonna do a real awesome

429

restoration, they can be a lot of work.

430

I would think that it's the same

amount of work possibly as a, uh,

431

as restoring an old car, but you

don't have the motor, which is a huge

432

expense in restoring classic cars.

433

Yeah, and that's why I restore trailers.

434

I love hot rods.

435

I have some, but they cost

me a fortune because I don't

436

like doing mechanical work.

437

I muddle through some of it, but

most of it I have to pay for.

438

And so I got, that's part of why I

got into doing trailers, but if you're

439

at all handy and can screw and glue

stuff together, honestly, you can

440

figure out how to fix the trailer.

441

They're not that complicated.

442

So, um, you take them apart,

you see how they're built.

443

Chances are you're going to build it

better than it was ever built originally.

444

Just putting it back together because

they really were thrown together quickly.

445

It's amazing.

446

They last as long as they did.

447

Stuart Doing Stuff: And especially the

older ones, they don't have the kind of

448

tech that the new RVs and the new trailers

have out there with the touchscreens

449

and all the, and all that wiring tech.

450

Vintage Camper Trailers: At best you

might have an extension cord that turns

451

on a light and powers two plugs, you

know, I mean there is no tech For people

452

Stuart Doing Stuff: Well, I'm gonna

try and make it a point to get out

457

if I'm in the area, because it just

458

sounds like a whole bunch of fun.

459

Real, and, and, and healthy, safe,

family friendly, fun too, you know?

460

Yeah.

461

Where you can kind of take a look back
