Spartan Manor was sold as a house trailer, not a travel trailer. Stacking them is interesting, but then definitely not mobile.

At approximately 1:53 in the video the owner explains that the way her father constructed it, the rig was able to get under overpasses. Also the "push out" was retractable.

At 3:55 there is a picture of her father towing it, and she describes that her father worked various construction projects and had to move around.

Wow, I wish I had half the skill and ambition that this woman's father had.

Her dad was sure some kinda of crafstman. Everything was done so well and in a tasteful manner too.


The story below the video said the dad was a finishing carpenter.
No doubt he also had skill in other areas, and was a true craftsman.

Those are the first Spartan house trailers I've seen piggy backed. I've seen other house trailers of that era set up piggy back fashion.

The womans dad that built it must have been a metal man as the Spartan is a all riveted aluminum outer shell and frame.
