Ain't she pretty?

Bought her back in December and couldn't her until the beginning of February. Previous owner had her under a shed for 17 years and lived in her for 12, so we had to do some work just get get her to move. Still not entirely road worthy yet, but I'm working on it. Next step is to do some light electrical work so she'll pass inspection and I can transfer the title and registration. Then I'll gut the interior before we tackle the suspension and chassis work. I got myself a project, and I hope to do it up right.

Welcome aboard!
Yes,she is very pretty!
I had a 1991 excella 29 in the late 1990’s.
She was built like a tank,and we enjoyed her.
Good luck on your restoration and have fun.

Yes you do have yourself a project. But it's satisfying to return these vintage trailers back to their glory days!

Wishing you well on your project and keep us informed of progress via pictures!
