    I grew up in a two story trailer. It was purchased this way. Had 2 bedrooms and a half bath upstairs a full bedroom downstairs and a full bathroom with a washing machine! This was in 1960 we were the envy of the trailer park.

    A genuine example of true craftsmanship. More importantly is the commitment by her father to keep the family together instead of him being away for an extended period of time for his work.

    This is a great testament to a man that only had his trade and his hands to support the family he loved. He made it so he could move where the work was located. And be comfortable for his family, so he could make a living. This is a long lost psychology in today’s morality. I enjoyed hearing this story and seeing the structural work of art.

Now I’m 57 and my daughter and I live in a beautiful 3 bedroom, 2 full bath mobile home. My sister and brother-in-law live in a 4 bedroom, 2 full bath doublewide that is gorgeous. They’ve been in theirs less time than I have mine and have already paid it off. Hoping to be able to get mine paid off soon as well.

    I lived in an 1950-ish house trailer from birth to age 7, without any extensions. I would joke in later years that I learned to walk early because I could just extend my arms to either side and touch furniture or walls for stability. But we actually found ample space for comfortable living. I remember quite a bit of playtime and events from my preschool years that occurred in that small space. My parents would later recall entertaining up to four other adults for an evening, often with dinner. We transferred from the trailer when my father constructed a small 2-bedroom apartment inside our commercial buiding; we found the new quarters spacious. I found it very novel that there were now corners to turn to go from end to end in the new home.

    I know Shirley Wallace. She is a great person! I am glad to see your two-story Spartan featured here. Her Dad was a genius in how he re-built this 1953 Spartan. It is a one of a kind mobile home and well worth placing in a museum. Actually the first two-story or double-decker trailers showed up in about 1950. Spartan never built one so this is a rare double-decker. Other companies like Pacemaker and Stewart built double-deckers from about 1955 and well into the 1960s. The first pull-out appeared in about 1950 on the Rollohome mobile home. A couple of manufacutered experimented with pull-outs even earlier.

    So glad Shirley got the old girl back. So rare to be able to do something like that. We lived in trailers too, for much of my child hood. Smaller and no facilities. Now I wish I had one of those trailers or even the railroad boxcar we lived in. Hope you get some use out of it again and can pass it on to a good caretaker. It's a gem. Especially that your dad built it up. Enjoy.

    I love my 1947 Spartan Manor. I always see people taking pictures when I’m hauling it down the road. Built to last too.

    this is awesome. and to the people who are just ignorantly saying its too tall to move or too heavy.....first of all watch the damnd video, they moved it many times with what looked like a ordinary 3/4 or 1 ton truck. second, have you never heard of a semi truck or double decker tour bus? both are as tall or possibly a bit taller than this is so why is it that it would be "unwise" or dangerous to haul this thing around? If you are aware of what you are doing and plan your trip it would be fine. if you have never towed a trailer and you are lacking in common sense then yes it would be best for YOU not to be hauling something like this. It wouldnt be something you'd take out every weekend camping or something but I would not feel uncomfortable towing this from city to city seasonally or whatever. I love it!

      They move 2 story houses. This trailer would be simple by comparison. Also some 5th campers are almost as tall.

      I agree! This trailer looks very cool, I could live in something like that very easily. And, first things first, I would paint that exterior and it would look fabulous!!! I love that shape!!! :)
      I love hearing her fond memories of her childhood and living there.

      I love the fact that her Dad was so creative and fixed a really neat home for his family! I It reminds me of my Dad, we camped on a nearby lake a lot during my childhood. Over the years our "campers" grew from a two room tent to a converted school bus. We also expanded our watercraft from a two man rubber raft to a six passenger ski rig. We have many good memories and delightful stories about our lake
      homes and the people we met in those "good ole days". Lol gotta love the 60's and 70's

    • @vegasjill21

      Lavena Russell Oh how cool to have a school bus!! Just like the Partridge Family!! lol
      It sure would be a lot more comfortable and roomy!! Yea,,it was fun being a teenager in the 70's. :) I have lots of great memories, too!
      Take care.

    I work on mobile homes and I miss seeing the older ones. The ones with the cool 50s / 60s vibe. This one is truly unique and I hope it is preserved.
