1976 Serro Scotty Travel Trailer

This is what she looked like when we went to the gentleman's house to look her over. Red and gray is so not my colors but I could see the potential right away. We got her for 1200.00 dollars from a local Craigslist seller. He even delivered it 45 minutes back to our house.
 After going to Home Depot and purchasing white and blue exterior semi gloss paint, it took us about three days to put two coats of paint on her, but the difference is so awesome.
 This was her dining area in the state we received her in...I scrapped the tint off of the right window, laid the table down in the sleeping position...
 We painted all the brown walls a bright white, I added curtains (which are really pillowcases with a tiny hole cut in the bottom. Much cheaper than curtains.), a memory foam mattress, and bedding I already had lying around the house and here is the new twin sleeping quarters. The chandelier sticker on the wall I got at Target and I cut it in half to put on piece there and one piece on the bathroom door.
 This is a creepy serial killers kitchen. I wouldn't even attempt to eat anything that was prepared in this joint. The brown wood makes me throw up in my throat a little.
But after some light blue paint for the cabinets, a stove cover from the camping supply company, some sticky floor panels as the back splash, and a cute spice rack added....she looks very sweet.
 I would have to say that this is probably the original flooring that was throughout the entire thing (70's porno). This is under a cabinet, but I just took the same sticky floor panels for .60 cents a piece at Home Depot....
 Pulled the backing off and stuck em down.  Major improvement....so much better to look at and now maybe some spiders won't really want to live under here any longer cause it's clean.
 The bathroom closet had this dark blood red paint on it. It could have really been blood where someone was murdered but after a good wipe down, I redid this floor as well with the same sticky panels. The toilet we did have to buy from the camping supply store, but it's a nice added touch.
All of my cabinet knobs have baby campers on them, I ordered these off of Etsy. They are adorable and they were not that expensive. So worth the money.
 This is the full memory foam sleeping quarters, we did add two shelves above for storage and so it would match the other sleeping side.
 I had to order the Serro Scotty sticker off of Amazon, but for 7.95 cents it adds to the charm of the camper.
And last but not least, I purchased a decal from the local mall with the name of our camper in 7 inch letters. So cute....
It finally ended up being moved from my driveway to my backyard where the poor slow boy that built our fence, might have not put a gate in front of it. So it's now my guest suite. I hope you enjoyed my camper redo, if you have any questions please feel free to ask....
