We began our odyssey for a travel trailer without even realizing it. I'm not sure where the obsession began, but one day I knew we had to replace the pop-up travel trailer we'd recently sold with a more traditional option. The local news channel runs a website everyone in our state (UT) uses to find obscure used items. I went on KSL.com and found 900 bumper pull trailers! Of course, I began by looking at the cheapest one and found a nondescript old-beat-to-heck trailer. Without even seeing an interior photo I knew it was the one to focus on and set out to get it.
We drove over 600 miles in one very windy day and brought her home. Turns out our little bumper pull is a 1961 Aljo. Aljo was made by Modernistic Industries, in CA. It was also (later) known as Aljoa. In 1984, Aljo became part of Winnebago and they ceased to produce this brand. So, this is not a Skyline Industries trailer...it's an Aljo 1500X! As far as we know, ours is the ONLY ONE of it's kind posted anywhere on the web...I'm still not sure 'why'.
Enjoy the photos...and the road trips!
