Interesting Craigslist ad for "Old" Trailer Company

It would be cool to have a '57 Chevy ragtop to haul one of these around!

Wow, that's a different kind of barn find. Kind of amazing. Not sure I like the upper part, seems a bit "too much" but so unique. Yah, 57 Chev and one of those would be perfect.

I saw that on FGRV, I guess it is now sold. Very funky looking styling.

I'm thinking a '62 Valiant would be a better choice although it wouldn't have the same cachet as a '57 Chevy. Fixed up and done right, though, this would be a real eye-catcher on the road. Maybe this is what someone on the forum should have done for their daughter??

OMG, I'd forgotten about those (and I'm not all that sorry about that but, yes, that would be the perfect match.
