Bill,
Thanks for the information on the serial number. It's nice to know the
trailer is back "home" where it was made.
I'm curious as to what was included with the international trim package.
There's a clock in the cabinets above the front couch and a naugahide
padding (diamond pattern) covering the head board and ceiling of the bedroom
that all appear to be original - would these be part of the international
package? (the person we bought the trailer from said these were special and
uncommon options)
Thanks,
Bob and Nora
'64 Trade Wind
