Question Vintage value??

Looking at purchasing an old (vintage) Land Yacht. Here is the number?
f66 fg 126-79715 2027 (the #1 in 126 might be an I?) Anyone know how I identify this, year, size, value, etc.?

Posting a photo would help. The VIN looks a bit odd to me. Probably a 1966. The I might be International trim line. The 26 might be the length, maybe an Overlander. There are other members better at translating VIN numbers. You found this number on a plate next to the door, right? It will be interesting to see how right I am.

The number posted doesn't correspond with any of the patterns that I have encountered. You might try viewing some of the photo at this link. You can be fairly certain that the trailer is a pre-1969 if it has a single window over the LP tanks in the front (some 1950s had small side windows flanking the centered front window over the LP tanks as well).

Good luck with your investigation!

Kevin
