Question How do you determine what year trailer was built?

Thanks for the quick reply.....I have recently purchased a 31' International Soveriegn, no title and I am not sure what year it is, is there anyway of telling?
thanks, BFZ

Make sure you are giving the number that is on the tag next to the door, you will find two sets of numbers one on the top and one on the bottom in the center, give the number on the bottom, it may read something like 0315J451 or something like that

Try this to decode yourself and post what you find or if you need help post the number


Serial numbers

Another question, where are the batteries located on this model? i am usec to seeing them on the outside at the front on the tongue on most models, so far i have been unable to locate them anywhere?

Withought knowing the year I will guess in an exterior door on the side.
It probably has only one battery.
If it is a newer model then it will have one or two doors up front behind the tounge, a little older and it will be in the back compartment door.

If it is a 31' it is 1969 or newer for sure.

No door s in front, one door on side at rear right, one door on left side appears to be for access to frig (which has been replaced) one large door at very rear no batteries there....when it is plugged up to power source, meter at front shows batteries in good condition.
BTW: I will try posting pictures in the next couple of days

BFZ,
Sounds like a rear bath unit like mine, in which case the battery is in the drop down door at the extreme right rear of the unit. If it is a center bath; IIRC the battery door is further forward on the right side. The left side door is fridge access.
