I bought a nice little 16 footer but can't find ANY info or references to it or the company that made it. The title says it is a 1981 "Heritage" and the only graphic on the trailer says "Eagle." I don't even see a place of manufacture. The trailer is fiberglass sided with foam sandwiched between. It seems well built and ahead of its time for a 1981. I'd love to see some others. Thanks.

if it would be my guess i would say jayco or american coach might have made it

Both of those keep coming up in my searches, but it think it's because Jayco makes an Eagle and American Coach makes an American Heritage. I couldn't find anything either made that looks like this one. I did find references to a Heritage motorhome built around the same time on a toyota chassis, which looks something like it, but no references to them making trailers.

I wonder if it was built by Heritage (Abel Corp.) 574-773-4106

Sorry, never have heard of it but, it sure looks cool. Got any interior pictures?

Has anyone heard of a Heritage Eagle travel trailer?

It looks like the Jayco light weight trailers from the early 80's. When I was a kid I used to order brochures from trailer manufactures and I had one from Jayco. (no longer have them). You could probably email a picture to Jayco and ask them.

I'm hoping to buy a very similar trailer - looking at it tomorrow. The owner said he had a hard time finding any information on line about it, so I thought I'd try. This post is the only thing I've found that looks the same. Seems like a great little trailer and I can't believe there aren't more around! He's asking $1200 obo.

I'll post pics once I figure out how

Pretty sure it's not a Jayco. I don't think Jayco was making anything but tent trailers back in 1981. It looks a lot like the travel trailers you see in Europe. (I'm not saying that's where it was built. Just looks like it.) The open floorplan, horizontal tanks, lightweight construction, and low chassis.

I agree, it definitely looks European. I'd really like to find another one to get an idea of how it is contstructed before I start pulling things apart.

They are horizontal tanks-

Manchester Horizontal Propane Tank - Amazon.com

I can't attest to their safety, but I plan to replace them with standard 20lb cylinders mounted further forward on the tongue.

Are those propane tanks laying on their side? Always thought that was unsafe.

Yep, the back corner was the worst of it, but the paneling is still solid. The pics were taken after I pulled all the paint I could get off the ceiling. I'm sealing the roof this weekend (weather permitting) and will repaint the entire ceiling.
