Episode 7: 1948 Curtis Wright
Give a listen to the story of the loving restoration of Dave and Lori Whites' 1948 Curtis Wright Model 5 Clipper. It took over five-years and multiple attempts to make it their own.

Creating an authentic stripe took research, time, and perseverance to achieve. This episode was recorded at the 2019 All-American Rally in Brooks, Oregon in the Canned Ham Studios and is hosted by "The Illustrated Field Guide to Vintage Trailers" authors....

We usually get pumped up on black coffee and maple bars for breakfast around ten in the morning. That's followed by some Slim Jim's, Skittles, and Mexican Cokes for lunch. By late afternoon we're pretty tapped out, so we usually pull into...

We're going to Boot Camp!
Like most vintage trailer enthusiasts Paul Lacitinola's interest began humbly, with the purchase of 1962 DeVille for family outings. From there he's evolved into a collector, magazine publisher, rally organizer and creator of Vintage Trailer Boot Camp, an intensive 4-day learning experience focused on vintage trailer restoration. Open to experienced and novice restorers alike, the weekend will be packed with industry leaders and experts sharing their knowledge of topics like electrical & plumbing, framing, wood refinishing, painting, design, fabrication, appraisal, crafts and much more.
