My Apologies, Let me start at the beginning

Well,

Like most things I jump right in and now I realize I did not give a proper introduction on the Forester.

The previous owner stated he had it for a few years and used it last at an ice-fishing contest.  He said the heater works well and does keep up with the north weather temperatures but not the winds.  Looking at it, I can understand due to no weatherstripping on any of the windows so I'm sure the breeze blew right though them.

It seemed well kept, not something that I would rate as a fishing or hunting camper.  It did have issues at both front and back windows where the typical canned hams don't fair well to begin with. The previous owner confirmed all lights worked on 12-volt (which was an added option for this year I found out later).  When asked if it worked while plugged in, he was not sure as he had never used hooked it up at any time.

He did confirm the stove worked but not sure on the fridge.  They did not cook in it just heated water for coffee mainly.  When I viewed the fridge, it looked new on the inside.  Completely free of rust spots, ick spots, etc.  I was happy and surprised to see it this clean with it being original to the trailer.  BONUS!

Here are a few more pix from the day I viewed it.


Original cushions, fridge, and stove



Viewing from the front of the trailer, the closet is on the left, you can just barely see the closet hardware in this photo.  Under the closet is a heater and small (really small) storage to the right of it.  On the street side is the sink with small countertop, four self locking drawers, stove over fridge, and overhead cabinets.

 

It has the original light fixutres all around. And in nice shape too.

Overall, it was very nice.  I had looked at a few others over the years and had some basics I wanted to have.  One was for sure the 12-volt.  It will come in handy when going into the back woods where I really like to get away.  It also had to have the comfort factor for company with a couch of some type.

I am a Diva when it comes to Dutch Oven cooking, so an oven would have been nice but I don't believe I would have much use for that particular item.  Though an indoor biffy would be nice to have, a porta-biff is much easier to maintain.  No issues with accidental dumps, winterizing, etc.  Since I also do a lot of kayaking, I have had one of these "boom boxes" and will make use of that in an outhouse style.  http://www.riversports.com/product/index/60/Toilet-Systems

Since I have been camping and kayaking, I have quite a bit of stuff already and really was in need of a room to store and move it all together.  So when I saw this trailer, seeing the storage capabilities and the basics, and believing there was just a litte correction needed,  I was quite happy. 

I did a bit of research was found this info. Thanks Kerby & Family.

Though this info is based on a 1968, and the one I'm looking at is a 1967, it's so close ---  SOLD !!

Then at home with the new trailer I take to closer inspection.....
