Description 1956 Spartan Royal Manor Travel Trailer New Renovation by Wheelhouse Mobile 32 Feet Long x 8 Feet Wide
This Wheelhouse unit is fully rebuilt, meaning nothing from the original interior was retained. With the exception of the original bathroom vanity mirror. The design goal was to build a unit that is fully road worthy, but optimized for functioning as a “mobile guest house”, utilizing 110v or 250v shore power from a cord, and water supply from a hose. There are also onboard freshwater and greywater storage tanks to accommodate stints spent “off grid”.
Frame / shell Prior to the build out, all interior materials were removed, including the wooden subfloor. The entire steel frame was wire brushed to remove any rust, and was painted to seal against future rust. The tongue hitch was extended to allow more maneuverability without “jackknife”, and a heavy-duty coupler-style hitch was installed. A new Bull Dog 3500lb tongue jack was installed. New steel mounting brackets were fabricated on the tongue for propane storage and mounting of the AC mini Split Heat exchange unit. The aluminum shell was leak tested and sealed from both inside and out when interior walls were exposed. All damage to the aluminum shell was patched and repaired.

Most of the trailer is wired to run on 110v AC power, with the exception of LED ceiling mount lights , ceiling vent fans, and toilet vent fans. A heavy duty cable designed to connect to Solar panels on the roof if future owners decide they want to build in solar power (roof panel array, inverter, and storage batteries). Similarly, the plumbing system is designed to run with pressurized city water supply via a garden hose, or via 60 gallons of on-board water tank storage and pump.
