1947 KIT

Between 1946 and 1947 the Kit Manufacturing Company of Norwalk California produced 4,500 “Kit Kampers,” the iconic 4’x8’ teardrop upon which nearly all modern teardrops draw inspiration. Highly regarded for its clean aesthetic and easy towability this classic design is now available as a modern build from Trailers4Two.

: Our 1947 Kit features authentic fiberglass fenders from the original molds, vintage style stainless taillights, large double doors, anodized aluminum exterior, and a powder coated steel frame.

: The galley comes with a dry pantry storage area, built-in 36 qt. ice chest, 5 gal. water tank with gravity spigot, and 12v lights. The restored Port-O-Stove & vintage add-ons seen here are available.

: Inspired by the gracefully upswept round tongue of the original Kit Kamper, we have painstakingly recreated this elegant feature, a detail only available from us. The easy lift tongue jack is included.

: Can my vehicle pull a Trailers4Two 1947 Kit teardrop? Why yes! With a curb weight of just 750 pounds it’s one of the lightest trailers on the road! For reference, a 4-cylinder Subaru Outback has a tow capacity of 2700+ pounds. With it’s long wheel base, narrow profile, and 15″ tires, you’ll forget it’s back there. So keep your eye on it! The DOT VIN makes DMV registration super EZ.

: The interior is classic, clean, and simple. The bed fills the space with a comfortable 4.5″ memory foam mattress. Two shelves span the foot zone — the lower shelf is perfect for small items like phones, books, flashlights and water bottles; the upper gear loft holds your overnight bags. Each side has its own reading light, door and window for cross ventilation.
