It has working 3 pane/panel roll-out windows (crank knobs – a couple stick and hard to open, and one has cracked glass) and all have either curtains or blinds. There is also a locking entry door with key. There are very nice aluminum lip eyebrow awnings over each window outside – many of these are new. For comfort, there is a portable plug-in heater as well as a window unit A/C Air Conditioner mounted in wall (AC may need to be replaced as sometimes does not want to work – easy & cheap to replace/install).

Make/Brand is Pathfinder. Pathfinder history from research on the web: Made by Pathfinder Mobilehome, Inc. in Spencer, Wisconsin from 1953 to 1973. Named after Natty Bumppo, known as the Pathfinder in “The Last of the Mohicans”. They used his likeness in early 1960’s advertisements. Pathfinder produced canned ham trailers initially and then in 1966 they introduced a small bread loaf style model that had a flatter front end, a bump out tail, and a diamond patterned stripe along the side.
