I have owned a 1966 Aristocrat Trailer for some years. To my knowledge only a few different sizes were built and the 13ft was one of them but I do not think they built a 12ft one. It weighs 1,300 pounds. It's history is: Irving Perch manufactured Aristocrat trailers in California from 1956 to 1974. The Lo-Liner model was called that because one could purchase optional metal wheels to install when storage in a low garage was desired. These smaller wheels lowered the height, as well as the unique “drop axle”. The Lo-Liner was sold as a 13 and a 15' trailer back then, but licensed as 16', as the nearest measurement from hitch to tail. (The living space is 14'.) Perch also manufactured a Land Commander, Highliner, Lil Loafer, Traveleer, Classic, Landmark, Landliner, American Clipper and Pick up Partner and an 8 ft RV called “the bug”. The exterior of the Lo-Liner was notable for the large windows on all sides of the trailer. The trailers were extremely well-built with aircraft construction techniques,(metal I beams) and many are still on the road all over North America. |
