Re: 1963 Century Travel Trailer
sdelee wrote: Thanks Windwalker! I have viewed your adventure with your Century and found encouragement :) Have you found any sources for Century parts/accessories? I'm missing several original things: bathroom sink, toilet, medicine cabinet, fridge. Would like to collect these things before rebuild. Thanks!! No, I didn't find any places that sell replacement parts. I have kept my original sink. I replaced the refrigerator with a small electric fridge and cut out the old door to fit the new fridge. Mine didn't have a bathroom so I wasn't in the same situation as you. You could always use generic bath parts from that era. Here is a site you might try.

That really is a cute trailer. Shame it has all that damage and that the previous owner lied to you. That is always disheartening. It does have great potential though. Just take it one step at a time. I think you are right about it originally being all aluminum. I think all the Century's were like that. If you do strip it you will need to polish the aluminum. That was probably one of the hardest jobs on the whole thing. Please keep us posted on your progress.521Views0likes0CommentsRe: 1959 Century

That was difficult because there was so much to do, but I just took it a step at a time. The hardest part was the very last part, the polishing.639Views0likes0Comments1959 Century
Well guess it has been awhile since I posted on here. Went to last 12 months and couldn't find my last post. Finally completed my 1959 Century travel trailer. If you are interested here is a link to my blog that depicts all the work that went into it. 1959 Century Restoration5.8KViews0likes25CommentsRe: Knob Noster, MO State Park
I am from Missouri and have always found my stays at Missouri State Parks to be very enjoyable. We also camp hosted at Pomme De Terre State Park one fall and really enjoyed the experience. The Department of Natural Resources does a great job of maintaining and keeping the parks nice, especially considering the use they get.225Views0likes0CommentsRe: Southern Utah
Have you been to Capital Reef NP. Gorgeous campground, but not full hookup, just electric. Great area to explore. Some great hiking. Also Escalante Grand Staircase National Monument has some fantastic slot canyons. Here is a nice website to explore possibilities.

I've been there about 3 times and would still go back again. So many hikes and areas to explore. I love the campgrounds there at Capital Reef. I think it is one of my favorites. Here is a good link to help you discover what is there. Capital Reef NP Have a great time. I think your distribution of time is about right, but you will want to go back again in a couple of years :-).161Views0likes0Comments
