Classic first-rate Shasta Travel Camper Trailer, 1967, Model 1500, Veh. ID# P9016. Is an ideal camper for immediate use *“AS IS” or for the person(s) passionate about restoring vintage travel campers. It is about 12 feet long excluding approximate 3 foot long tongue. It is approximately 8 feet tall x 6 feet, 6 inches wide. There are lots of storage spaces whether in cabinets, storage areas, three (3) pull-out drawers, a mirrored closet for hanging and storing clothing and a large rear storage area for most of the “set-up” equipment. The measurements for all the various storage areas are detailed in this document below. I have original keys for the main door and the rear storage area having primary access through the rear door with ley lock. The camper holds a CT registration. Gross Weight is 2900 and Light Weight is 1500. The camper is solid and in very good condition considering when built. There is no indication of any water leaks, insects what-so-ever. There are MANY, MANY extra items included and *all the items necessary for set-up. Interior – The dinner table seats 4 adults comfortably. It may drop down to a 77” Long x 38” Wide bed to sleep 2 adults. There is a comfortable built-in bench/couch across the rear of the camper. It may fold down to 77” Long x 46” Wide bed to sleep 2 adults. Above that is a fold up/fold down bunk bed. It may fold down to a 77” Long x 46” Wide bed to sleep 1 adult or 2 children. In total the camper sleeps 5-6 people. The cushions are in Very Good Condition because they were recently reupholstered. The sink, counter top and table top are in Very Good condition. There is a 3-burner propane gas cooktop stove and oven. I’m unsure if the oven works. There is a 10+/- gallon (Inca Plastics, Model 106416) water storage tank under the left side table bench seat. There is a manual water pump at the sink, to pump water from the water storage tank. Also at the sink is an on/off faucet for running cold water when hooked up to a water line at the campground, home, etc. There are 3 pull-out drawers each measuring 15 ¾” Wide x 11” Deep x 3 ¾” High for containing serving and cooking utensils, pot holders, dish towels, playing cards, match’s, wax paper, aluminum foil, plastic wrap, large and small baggies, measuring spoons, can opener, knives, cook book (all listed included with the camper), etc. To the left of the drawers is a 22” High x 20 ½” Deep x 10 ½ Wide storage cabinet for pots and pans. There is a 30” Wide x 12” High x 6” Deep storage cabinet below the drawers. There is large 22” Wide x 21” Deep x 20” High storage area to the right of the oven where the propane heater was previously located. The camper is electrically wired with its “original” electrical breaker box, several electric lights with shades and electric power outlets. There is a smoke detector mounted to the ceiling. Also included is a wall mounted gas light, “original equipment” (minus its glass globe). There is a 41” High x 29” Wide x 19” Deep 2-door (with mirror attached) closet with bar for hanging cloths, storing pants, sweaters, socks, etc. Below the closet is a 22” Wide x 14 ½” High x 14” Deep insulated food cooler ice box with hinged door and drain for the melting ice. Below the ice box is another storage cabinet measuring 28” Wide x 13” High x 5 ½” Deep. There are 2 additional storage cabinets, 25 ½” Wide x 12” High x 12” Deep above the sink/stove and 38” Wide x 15” Deep x 14” High above the table. The interior is very nice with a thought out floor plan. There is an access door below the couch (in addition to the main access door in the rear of the camper) to access the large rear storage compartment which measures the width of the camper x 24” Deep x 11”High. The floor is very solid and carpeted. The windows have draped (though dated), are screened throughout, and every window hand crank work perfectly. There is a screened roof vent for additional ventilation. There is full length/width screen door and the insulated solid door locks with a key. Exterior – All hook-up’s function and perform as designed. There are hook-ups for campground supplied electric power and water. A 2” (two inch) hitch ball is required for towing. There is a hook-up for the sink drain hose. The camper tongue accommodates a lock-down rack for two (2) propane gas tanks (tanks are likely outdated). At least one tank has propane in it to use the 3-burner cooktop stove. The tongue has a hand crank to raise and lower it, and has a slip-on swivel wheel (original equipment) to roll the camper around on. There is a painted wood box (integrity questionable, there may be some wood rot) electrically wired for a deep cycle battery for back-up electric power. There is a 10’ W x 9’ D awning which is in Very Good condition. The two (2) Unique Shasta Wings ARE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT. The floor carpet is in good condition, older, but is a high durable indoor and outdoor carpet. *One of the camper tires show age and I recommend replacement before the next road trip. *At the same time I recommend repacking the wheel bearings. The metal tire rims and metal hub caps are all ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT. The new owner will need to verify the exterior light bulbs work. The exterior roof has a couple tarred patch spots and tar around the roof vent. All tarred areas are sound and water tight. Pressure treated wheel blocks are included. The following item is a VERY UNIQUE FEATURE: **Mounted in the camper rear is a 2” Receiver Hitch for a bike rack, cargo carrier, etc. Additional rare camper items include a lock-down rack for stowing “two” (2) propane gas tanks and windows on “both” sides of the camper at the upper bunk level location. Miscellaneous included items - There are many, many extra items included with this camper. Starting with what I’m told is the “Original” brochure titled “Operation and Maintenance Instructions for your Shasta”. I also have the “”Original” brochure titled “Lighting Instructions” and parts list for the wall mounted gas light made by Sunbeam Trailer Products. Also included are all the tools necessary for setting up the camper at the campground (*except hammer, bedding, hose tee) such as wire cutter, wrench, 4-bit screwdriver, 6-plug electric power strip, 4’-5’ long water hose specifically to *tee off main water supply faucet to access water for drinking, washing hands and dish’s, filling containers, etc. Plus, an approximate 30’ long water supply hose, 50’ long electric supply cord, 17’ long sink drain hose, four Low Buoy camper leveling stands (one for each corner), a 360 degree bullseye bubble level, pressure treated wood wheel blocks, a 125V 15A electric current tap (with 1 male and 3 female outlets). The cabinets are stocked with all the basic cookware including pots, pans, serving and cooking utensils, can opener, tongs, knives, pot holders, dish cloth, tea kettle, and dish washing scrubbers. Mounted to an interior wall is a fire extinguisher. There is a full size spare tire on a steel rim, propane tank on/off handles (currently detached) and valve safety plugs (currently detached), a couple electrical adapters, electrical and masking tape, lightbulbs, drape rod hanging clips, water hose washers, extra “original” closure clips for the cabinet doors and a threaded plumbing collar with washer. As mentioned, There Is A Lot Included With The Camper!!! Background information – At some time the rear window was replaced, due to a slow water leak which left an indication of water contact on the interior paneling to bottom right of the window. There was also a slight water leak right side of front window leaving an indication of water contact on the interior paneling to the bottom right of the window. As of now, this camper is completely 100% water tight as far as I can tell. Inspection was done before this listing and obviously limited to visual inspection of all interior surfaces, walls, inside storage areas and cabinets, etc. To the best of my ability I find no water leaks or insects visible. No wood damage is visible, without tearing walls out, etc. All framing, walls, and the floor feel solid. As we all know these campers are vintage and could have damage not visible to the human eye. With that said I feel this camper is dry and in solid condition. The propane gas lines are sound. You will find small dents on the camper, and hail storm dents primarily on one (1) side, from being caught in a hail storm. Describing “how large or small” they are is subjective to each person. In my opinion the under carriage is in quite good condition with surface rust on framing. The "Original" exterior water faucet was removed years ago. However, I still have it, and it will be included with the camper to its new owner. Inspection and terms - THE CAMPER IS BEING SOLD IN “AS IS” CONDITION.
