Well, here's my summer side job (camper)

are you scrapping it ? is the siding screwed on ? Might get everything out of it, unscrew the siding, unwire it, while you're cutting that tree cut the wall studs all around (after tying a cable or something to pull the top over with) then just give it a good yank with your truck, should fall right over. Pick up the mess, and the aluminum roofing, you've got you a much lighter load to pull out of there. Most of all, be careful doing it

This that a generator I see in that opening ? Thatd sell good not to mention the rims and tires especially if they're 16 inch should go for round 50 to 75 all day long if the tires are any good at all good luck

I wouldnt bother removing all the screws from the siding, I would get one of those circle cut drill bits and cut over the screw. Leave the screw in the wood frame with the little bit of alum. Much faster tear down.

I wish you were nearby...I am looking for a stove for a small travel trailer.... Rebuilding one I got for nothing to sell it... put a couple hundred into it and sell it for maybe 500...

Destructo, if you were nearby I'd let you come get it out to have!

hobo, yeah, tons of the screws are so rusted they aren't coming out, I'm going to have to see if there is a bit in the garage or go get one of not.

Rusty, gutting it is next. I took the AC off today thats whats sitting in the foreground of the one picture and I got one captains chair out and part of the couch/bed. That is a 460 motor, I have a call out to a guy to see if he wants the motor and tranny he rebuilds cars all the time. I figure I'll just cut around the engine and let it fall and use the boom on dads tractor to get it up to the house.

I'll keep you all updated as I go along and thanks for all the tips!

Yep! My first and probably LAST vehicle LOL! I'm hoping once we get some weight out it will move but I think the brakes are frozen.

Get a winch and pull it out plenty of trees around

Looks like the trees have started to grow up and around it.

Lol hobo, my dad pulled it back there in and out of the trees until he got it just so!

I've. Used my winches to pull things out burrieed in the ground floor with trees trees growing threw them just use a snatched block

Yea you might be right about the brakes being frozen. I bought a trackter trailer trackter once that had been sitting for a long time and brakes were frozen but we hooked a class "A" wrecker up to it and gave it a quick pull and they let lose. I don't know if you can do that being that it is sitting in the mud.

Beat the center of the rims with sledge hammer should break free

I hadn't thought of that. I was just thinking of either gathering enough electric cords to run from the garage to the camper or getting an inverter for my truck.

The only things scaring me about all this is dropping the LP and gas tank.
