[A/S] '83 Burro (was 'trailer plates')

[Tuna <rctowns@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Only slightly off-topic, since i bought the lightweight '48 Trailwind hoping
to lighten it further to tow behind my Purple Cat... however, I repented -
found a '49 Jeepster to pull the Airstream (both in early stages of
restor/renovation).

Kept up the research, and found this '83 Burro on e-bay a couple of months
ago...
Scamp, Trillium, and Burro are small (usually 16' and under) fiberglass
travel-trailers which are pretty 'bare-bones'... This one is just under 13',
bumper-to-ball (12', 11.5"), dry weight 1,000lbs, tongue-weight 100lbs...
just at the limit of the Prowler's stock towing capacity. I've actually
towed the Prowler's luggage trailer, loaded with tools, clothing, (about
1200lbs loaded) a little more than 6,000 miles round-trip from Reno to
Detroit, and back again... through the high Rockies on the return trip, and
i barely knew it was there... this was a trial run last year in June-July
(some of you may have seen me and the purple cat at Bismarck); it reassured
me completely about the Prowler's towing capacity.

Since returning from Tucson, i've been getting the Burro/Prowler rig ready
for the Estes Park 1st Annual Eastern Rockies Vintage Airstream Rally - when
i registered, there was a vanishingly small chance that i'd have the
Trailwind towable - gonna pop a FanTastic Vent into the Burro, paint the
whole thing silver, and head out to Colorado around Aug.5th... i've been
assured that i won't be turned away... i'll have pics of the (slowly)
ongoing Trailwind restor/renovation as bona-fides, anyway...
