    Anybody pull a vintage Travel Trailer behind their wagon. I've had a Classic Shasta that I restored and we've pulled behind our Jeep Cherokee.. but now that I'm fixin' up the '58 Brookwood.. it will be pulled with that.

    Anybody else.. Do you have a pic of your wagon with your trailer?...Is this the right place to post this?

    Here's a pic of my Shasta...

    :slap:Not fins. Them thar things is WINGS on those Shastas! My dad and his friend sold those new when I was a snot nosed high school kid in late 50's. I think they went for around $600 new.
    My dream was to get our 1948 Chevy panel finished and pull an old Shasta or Air Stream behind it and the Chevy wagon. Still dreamin!
    Check out tincantourists.com for lots of old RV's.

    Yes, I love tincantourists. I wish mine had the rounded rear end, but it's a '68. However.. I can not complain.. it was in pretty good shape when I bought it and it was a 1 owner.. how much did I pay? $250... ha! I wouldn't mind restoring a few of these and flippin' them if I can get $2000 - $3000 for them.

    YES WINGS!!! (y)

    We went to several Tin Can Tourist winter rallys not far from where we live now. Gainesville used to be one of their original winter headquarters. That's how I ended up with our latest toy the UltraVan.
    Several members pull their old RV's with older cars and trucks. One guy who lives not far away, pulls his Airstream with an old Chevy panel like mine. Used to think we were the only people wanting to do that. Found out it is very popular.
    One Tin Can member was restoring Airstreams and selling them for around $6000. Not bad for all he did to them. They were in around the 22 foot sizes.
