Finished Product and a Sale

After getting Hammie back from Parker Trailer, we made the decision to sell her.  We met with someone who was going to lift her skins and fix the rot underneath, for what seemed like a reasonable price, but the time line kept getting pushed back due to weather and other projects.  With so many camping trips coming up, and after much discussion, we decided to put the new cushions and curtains in, give her a final scrubbing, and list her for sale.  We needed a camper that we could pull thousands of miles without worry.





Hammie cleaned up so nicely, so we put our listing, with full disclosure, up on Craigslist.  Within hours we had multiple showing lined up.  Our goal was simply to recover the cost of our purchase price and the work we had done at Parker Trailer.  I was so happy to sell her to the nicest man, who wanted to take his family camping and was also capable and willing to do the work needed to make sure she was completely road worthy.

A few weeks later we ended up purchasing a 1982 13foot Scamp Camper, which we love and is it's own story.  Perhaps I'll write about that later.  Until then, this is the end of Hammie's story.

The End.

  1. We just recently purchased a 1969 North Star. The similarities are uncanny. It makes me wonder if it could in fact be your Hammie. I'd love to know for sure.
