Most of the road worthy mid fifties trailers with or without title are selling at $5000 or higher. If it is a whales tail expect to pay more

If you don't buy it and it's anywhere in the western US, give him my email tlcbuilder@aol.com. Depending on length and condition, I think $5K could be the right number.. I paid $4200 for an 21' last year and almost have ready to use, always looking for the next project.

We just picked up #7091 (1951) here in Sacramento, Ca and are beyond excited! She's going to be a BIG project as her interior in in rough shape and she'll need a floor replacement. But her guts are mostly intact and we're looking forward to the challenge.

Hey Streampunk, welcome to the family. It will be interesting to know if you do, in fact, have the oldest one. I'll be watching.

My very first post, I'm so excited!
Please add my '55 #7951 Whale tail awesomeness!
She's taunting me...going to be a major restoration. Twin "L" shaped in the rear. The front was empty. I'm guessing there was a divan. I think I'll put in a dinette.

I am the owner of two Flying Clouds, a 1951 ser# 7177, restored to original and a 1954 whale tail, ser # 7674, last picture, in process, will be original with the exception of an added toilet and a slight modification to the front gaucho.
