Karen and I came across this on a ride over to Cleveland, TN:

It's gutted, and would be quite a project. We have no interest in or knowledge of this trailer - we just thought it might be of interest to someone here.
Eddie,
Spartan Trailers were built by Spartan Aircraft Company. Neat looking trailer!!!!!!
Nice town Cleveland, TN.

I second that. I lived and worked there for a while after college.
Is this considered a thread hijack?
Maybe but I don't think we will get banned. I had friends living there I visited while stationed at Ft Campbell in the early 80s. Lots of rafting trips on the Occoee River.
We enjoy visiting Eastern TN! Beautiful place to visit and would make a nice trip to see the Spartan Trailer, too!

I am thinking I saw this trailer on a Dual Sport Motorcycle Ride back in October, and memory is it being located along US64. A very cool camper needing some tender love!

Yep! US 64. That's how we get to and from Cleveland. I literally moved to N GA because of all the great riding here and in E TN and W NC!
I hope whomever buys that trailer will join this forum and post lots of pics of their restoration. I enjoy threads and videos on restorations. I've been watching a really neat series on Netflix about WWII fighter plane restorations, and I love hearing the stories about how people acquired these old wrecks and made them like-new. Wish I had the time, money, and knowledge to do that type of thing, but at least I can live vicariously through other peoples' stories.

Great riding area! I can envision a camp and ride gathering in our future! Dual Sport or Street?
