    I think you should have gone a retro color. Embrace the classic! Sage green or sea foam blue would look boss! All white on that classic body frame is a mistake. On the inside is where you go modern and updated. I love the bay window on the end!

      Not everything needs to be modern and updayed, late 20th century interiors deserve appreciation and are more aesthetically pleasing than a minimalist ugly 2020s interior

      I had one. Those windows are fixed & don't open, except for bottom right & bottom left. They are double pane windows, but once the seal gets old they leak.Condensation builds up between the sealed panes, leaving gross white streaks that can't be cleaned.

    You might prefer vinyl skirting better than the old metal skirting BUT metal is so much better when you weedwack. Vinyl can get holes even if you try to be careful. Vinyl? Oh, heck NO! I'll take metal skirting instead any day of the week!

    Another idea is tear down everything to the frame and build all new . It was done in a mobile home park several years ago . Keeping the frame kept it mobile home free from property taxes . The whole park was done .
    A mobile home in one of America's most exclusive trailer parks is on the market for $2.4 million. Paradise Cove-Malibu, California.

    This house is begging for a floorplan redesign. There is so much space, but so much of that space is WASTED. Start with the bedroom, bath, master, hallway disaster. Get rid of the laundry “area”, the hall “closet”, that wonky bathroom and that wonky master closet. Put in a small master bath and a small regular bath. Enlarge the small bedroom. Reconfigure the kitchen and living into a “great room” combo instead of the island and eat in kitchen. Much better use of space. Excited to see the journey!!

    I believe mine is 82 skyline alfie hernia. My neighbor has similar windows with peak his is a torch. I have 2 sliding doors opposite sides. Yours has a couple of with in the same spot. Anyone can steer me to someone who would know where I would find info on early 80s skyline models. I had vinyl sidings with hud number . I believe that means that its original equivalent. Paneling. Probably had the shaggy carpeting once. Most mobile home listenings don't have any make and model. Lucky if they have the year. The newer skyline 84 or 83 i assume it was another series.
