What's it worth?

I typed out a long story about this but somehow it was deleted upon trying to post it. What is the value of this trailer? No major damage or repair.

There is zero value to this trailer. If you put $30,000 into restoring it yourself, you might get your $30,000 back. Net zero. What are you thinking? You cannot make chicken salad out of chicken poop.

It is worth $400 for the aluminum. It is missing a lot. If you like the creative process of bringing a dead trailer back to life, it may have a personal worth to you. For a reasonable cost you might make an aluminum tent out of it without restoring the appliances. To make it fully functional, you will likely spend more than you would by buying a newer functional trailer, even if you do the work yourself. For maximum usage for minimal cost you might consider an SOB.

Are you asking because you want to sell it or do you want to buy it? What does the inside look like?

A moderator can merge your two posts.

Many would say its not worth it then volunteer to rescue it for you. Oh my ,,,was it literally buried in overgrowth.
