Restoring 1962 Cardinal Cabover Travel Trailer

Question: Dear Luise: My wife and I have just bought ha 1962 Cardinal Cabover travel trailer. Somewhere along the line someone painted it white. We have been trying to find a picture of the factory paint job. We are interested in the colors and pattern used. J.

Answer: Dear J.:  Let’s hope someone reads your question and comments on it. I would start by contacting the manufacturer, since they are still in business. Many long-term companies can refer customers to in-house or reliable, external vintage data. The URL is: http://www.firestriverinc.com/cardinal/ Blessings, Luise

About Luise Volta

Luise’s long life has brought her to being the great grandmother of four teenagers. Born in 1927, the miles in between her teens and theirs have been full of falling and getting up, learning and growing and then falling and getting up again. A normal, though not simple, process. She has had diverse careers in nursing, teaching preschool, interior design, Real Estate sales, insurance adjusting and dairy herd testing. She’s lived in the Mid-west, South and West Coast. Luise is married to the love of her life, Val, born in 1911. Their little terrier, “Rosa,” makes most of the major decisions at their house, (or thinks she does).
