Taking a road trip with a is fun, but choices for trailers are pretty limited for those with smaller, less capable vehicles. Owners of a small car shouldn’t fret, because you can still hitch up to a vintage camper that weighs basically nothing. is a pint-sized camper that weighs in at just 975 pounds.

I often write a lot about that should probably require its owners to have a CDL to drive. Even I have a big transit bus with a gross vehicle weight rating of nearly 40,000 pounds. But you really don’t need to drive a mobile penthouse. How about a travel trailer that’s still practical, yet can be towed by even the smallest of cars? That’s what offer, as well as this:

the National Serro Scotty Organization, Serro got its start when John Serro, a retired car salesman, built a 16.5-foot trailer in his garage. Nobody bought it, but it didn’t stop him from opening up a company to build travel trailers. Serro started in earnest in 1957 with a 10-foot Scotty Sportsman teardrop (later called Sportsman Jr.) before adding a 13-foot Scotty Sportsman Sr. in 1958 and a 12-foot Scotty Sportsman 12 model in 1959. The Sportsman 12 is exceedingly rare, with just six known to still exist.

Serro expanded even further in the 1960s, adding a 15-foot model as well as opening a plant in Oklahoma. The Scotty trailers were popular enough that Serro opened up Scottyland, a 230 acre campground just for Scotty owners.

The little trailer you see before you was built in 1964.

It’s a 13-foot Scotty Sportsman. Based on the floorplans available for the 13-foot unit this one is likely the Mattress model. On the outside, it’s clean with a gorgeous two-tone paint scheme.

The layout of the camper is pretty simple. There’s a table and seating up front, a small kitchen unit in the middle, a couple of cabinets and a bed.

There is no shower and no toilet. You have more or less similar amenities as a pop-up camper, but with hard walls. One thing I love about this camper is that the color theming continues inside, too.

And as I mentioned before, it makes up for its lack of features by being incredibly light. At just 975 pounds it could be towed by just about anything. I’ve towed more weight with a Smart Fortwo before. Including its tongue, total length is around 16 feet, which is short enough to fit in some garages!

The seller for this Scotty Sportsman says that it’s road-ready without any leaks. It just needs a set of tires. It’s unclear whether this one has been restored or not. But if it hasn’t, it has survived incredibly well over the decades.

Sadly, the same cannot be said for Serro. The company continued to expand through the decades, producing trailers as long as 32-feet-long and even producing park models. Serro even made a motorhome in 1995. But in 1997, Serro’s factory burned down, putting an end to camper production. Serro Scotty trailers would be revived just to end production again in 2014. Now, the name basically exists in name only.

The price for this piece of camping history is a reasonable $. Go ahead and hitch this up to whatever you have!
