About one week ago I bought this fiberglass pop up truck camper for some short outings and was hoping someone could help me ID the manufacturer for registration; the placard that is printed manufacturer, Date & Serial Number is blank. The previous owner thought it was built in the 70's. Only lead I have is a raised lettered placard on the back "Yucca Valley" and a meets standards California Dept of Housing plate. I emailed them the data plate information and nothing turned up.

Why do people use "vintage" instead of old, not vintage

If you got an open forum answer and wrote that down, I'm just confused how that helps anyone at DMV? You have no proof of anything and might as well write down the first camper manufacturer that comes to mind. No official serial number and no official name plate? I wasn't trying to be snarky. Just thought a simple, "I don't know" might suffice in order to get what you need done. As any answer you provide will just be heresay, I think.

If there's a Yucca Valley in CA or an adjoining state, and if it's incorporated, it'll likely have a town web site, and maybe a Chamber of Commerce, possibly even a library, and maybe even someone who's the official or unofficial town or county historian. Google will know. If so, try a few emails to various places and see if anybody there knows of the past existence of such a business. If not, ask for or research online the name of some local RV & automotive businesses. Email them, ask that they show the pix to their older staff members.

My thinking was that if you do this exhaustive search to find a name of a no longer existing manufacturer, what does it really gain you?
