Vintage Spartan travel trailer
Vintage Spartan Trailer Specifications, Weights and Dimensions
Spartan travel trailers were manufactured from 1945 to 1962 by the Spartan Aircraft Company. Owned by one of the richest men in America at the time, J. Paul Getty spared no expense in the creation of these high quality travel trailers. They were built with the same techniques used in the manufacturing of their airplanes. The result was some of the highest quality travel trailers available, and their price reflected that.

There are Spartan trailers being advertised on the internet as manufactured in the 80s. Does anyone know if there is any relationship between these and the original Spartans? Regardless, I would like to know which company manufactured the later “Spartan” trailers, given that the original company closed and the name was sold to the aviation college.
I don’t know anything about 1980s Spartans, but they wouldn’t have any relationship to the post-war-1962 Spartans.
The Spartan name wasn’t sold to the Spartan School of Aeronautics (as it was called during the time Spartan built trailers); Spartan’s aircraft businesses pre-date Spartan trailer manufacturing. Spartan started out building airplanes and built many during WW2. After the war, demand for airplanes plumeted, so Spartan started building trailers to take advantage of the aluminium and other aircraft building materials they still had in stock, and the skills of their current employees. Spartan trailers were built in the same hangars that they had built airplanes. That Spartan trailers were built using WW2 era aircraft materials and techniques wasn’t a coincidence.
I own a Royal Spartanette Camper i bought back in 2006 and I didn’t get any paperwork with it , how can I get paperwork for it ? Serial number 135-51
Where is the serial number on a trailer. We didn’t get any paper work so need to buy a license
I just bought some property tha has a 1961 spartan sparcraft statesman on it it is 50’and is in very good shape for its age and could be liveable with a good cleaning,i dont need or want the trailer it has axles on it and is sitting on gravel on blocks, what are these things going for about the inside and out is original and in shape
Bobby where are you located? I will buy it.
I need a wiring diagram for a 1951 Spartanette Tandem
