Yes, for sure...that Geo-prototype is one of the best designed trailers ever! I would give my left arm for that trailer! Problem is, they wouldn't give me $135K for my left arm...

Here is a pamphlet that was put out by Holiday House on it. I found this document online about 6-7 years ago when this trailer was for sale at "Iowa Boys" in Hollywood. They wanted 23K for it then, but it hadn't been restored at that point either. I wonder what it will be worth in say, 20 years? It's got all the right elements to be worth a bunch...one of a kind prototype, restored, original, all historical documents included...heh, it's hard to say?

Okay, while we are on this little side step...if you like the mid-century/atomic type of look (like duh, all of us here do) you will love this baby too. It's a 1959 Spartan Carousel. Not many of these were made. It is also rare. The one you are looking at is un-restored, and listed now for $15K - Has a circular kitchen, domed skylight (look at that awesome ceiling light!), pink bath fixtures...I think this guy is 35 foot? Which would make it a just the legal limit to tow if I'm not mistaken. Still, I probably wouldn't haul it all over the Country.

Amy can't you see this one with that living room picture window jutted out over one of those lake you got there? :wink:
