I have never heard of a Destiny Industries Manufactured home!
Donnie.
>> Yeah.
>> What are you doing,
>> man? I'm down here again looking to mow
home.
>> What are you looking at him for?
>> You know, we got this new lot we're
playing with and uh we're going to see
if we can't find us something to put in
there.
>> Mhm.
All right.
>> We got this beauty we're going to walk
around and look at.
>> You like that one?
>> Big old double wide.
>> Now, double wide costs twice as much to
move.
>> About three times as much to move. Mhm.
Well, I guess we'll walk around the
outside. What year do you think this is?
>> Um
I don't know, but a good rule of thumb
usually.
>> Uh-oh. Rule of thumb.
>> Usually.
>> Yep.
>> Cuz if they got a shingle roof, you can
move them.
>> Uh-huh.
>> So,
>> Oh, that it's new enough to to move.
>> It's new enough to move. Yeah. So,
>> in our in our county, you have to be a
certain
>> 30 years. 30 years running. If you're
older than 30 years, you can't move it
into the county.
>> If it's already in the county, you can
move it around the county.
>> Yes.
>> If the taxes are paid up on it.
>> So, we are at this mobile home lot and
they uh they sell these and they take
them in as repos and stuff and they let
you check them out and uh they've got
this one that they just drug in here.
Looks kind of cool. So, we're going to
check it out. Now, one of the reasons we
like doing these is because it's kind of
interesting to see how the layout is
inside.
because that tends to change a little
bit over time on some of these. So you
sometimes you'll see a layout that you
don't see anymore. So that's kind of
cool.
>> Usually tail field is they're pretty
screwed up if they just split like that.
>> Yeah. So if they just cut it apart, it
might have been a quick repo.
>> Repo or they're tore up inside.
>> Yeah.
>> They got something tore up in it.
>> So we'll see. And I don't know, D. I see
a towel in the bathroom window there.
This one might be a doozy, people.
>> Might be.
>> Get your uh
get your uh bets in now.
>> What do you think? Huh?
>> What I'm worried about? Shotgun holes. I
ain't worried about that little clip.
>> Okay.
We uh we went in one down here that had
been shot up. Maybe a couple actually.
>> All right. There's another towel over
the back door window. Mhm.
>> That's just tiles are just cheap
burgers.
>> Yes,
>> that's all.
>> What's going on there?
>> It looks like a truck run into it.
>> Why did that go in? You know,
>> somebody had a porch.
>> Oh, yeah. Okay. Oh, yeah. The
>> handrail.
>> The handrail there. It makes sense
really if you think about it.
>> That's what I would think.
>> And maybe they hit the handrail on the
way out when they were dragging out.
They might have done a a grab and dash
here. So, we got a door. We got a high
window. I would guess that's the
kitchen.
Big double window. I would guess that's
the living room. And then one down
there. Perhaps a bedroom.
This thing's tinted. It might be the
>> Uh-huh.
Mhm.
Well,
>> this one's got a high window.
>> A high window in there. Yeah. Uh-huh.
That's interesting.
>> Normally, you don't see windows in the
front.
>> Yeah. What's up with that? Why would it
be like that, Donnie?
>> It's kind of windy today.
But the weather's good.
It's
>> supposed to rain.
>> Supposed to rain. Okay.
>> But look like
>> Well, let's see what the front looks
like on this beauty.
All right. We got the I I think those
were blue shingles at one point. I mean,
uh, uh, shutters at one point. They
faded.
>> I think they look black.
>> Oh, Donnie, look over the front window.
>> There's lights up there.
>> This is very fancy.
>> Uhhuh.
>> All right. So, uh, shutters on the
front, white siding,
white boxing. They had their security
camera up there keeping everybody
honest. Had another one at that end.
>> Got a Boy, it is windy. They got a big
overhang.
>> Yeah, it looks like maybe they've
rebuilt that or something. I don't know
that that wasn't like that originally.
They're usually not that nice.
>> Yeah, this got roof damage.
>> I might get roof damage trying to walk
backwards.
>> SP
a little bit.
All right. All right. So, we'll see if
we can hop up in there, folks, and we'll
see what the inside looks like.
Well, Donnie, I see something I like
already. It's got my favorite my
favorite mobile home amenity. It's got
the Graceand windows.
>> Does have Graceand windows.
>> My favorite. If it's good enough for the
king is good enough for me.
>> Mhm.
>> All right. So, uh it has this
I have never seen this in them. I mean,
I've seen it from the outside, but I've
never actually seen it like that on the
inside. That's pretty crazy.
>> That was a little different than that.
>> See if that's Is that
It's faux people. That's not an actual
rafter.
It just looks that way. That's pretty
That's pretty wild, huh? I like it.
Anything that makes it a little taller,
I think it's pretty cool.
I don't I don't want to fall through
nothing. They've also decorated it up.
Time spent with family is worth every
second. So, uh, you know, you put the
pictures in there and it's kind of cool,
I guess.
>> Family is one of the nature's
masterpiece.
>> The family is one of nature's
masterpieces. There's other ones in
there. Traditions, blessings, strength,
patient, forever, smiles together.
>> Let's go this way.
>> Donniey's not having it. He just
He's not that into it. So, this would be
like the living room area. And since it
joins the family room or the dining
room, whatever that is. I guess that's
the family room. You know, that's pretty
big.
Uh, lots of room. This would be the
dining room, I suppose.
>> I would think this would be the dining
room.
>> Wonder what that frame went to. I guess
it went there.
>> It went in that door.
>> We'll come back to the kitchen, folks.
It's got the old popcorn ceiling uh with
the It follows the slant of the roof.
Here's your original texture.
So, that's what the original
pattern would have been on all of this
drywall that's been painted.
It's got the high water doors so air can
flow beneath it.
And then I guess this is the master
bedroom, dining.
>> Yep, this is the master.
>> Fairly large size. Oh, by the way, this
one doesn't stink.
>> Lot of A lot of times they have like a
dog smell or cat smell. This one
doesn't. So, they either took care of
their animals or didn't have them.
>> Huge closet.
>> Yeah, it's actually pretty big. It's
probably five by seven, something like
that. The bathroom is a full mirror. The
whole bathroom.
>> So, that's where the um um hot water
tank would have been behind that panel.
It is so windy today. You can hear it
blowing everything around.
>> Is it 10° hotter in there?
>> Yeah. I don't get why that is. I guess
it's coming through here. There's a lot
of heat right here. That is nuts. And
it's The thing is it's not hot today.
>> No.
>> What's that all about?
>> You hear all that noise out there?
>> Mhm. crazy. All right, so here's our
here's our bathroom.
Um,
turn around and show you how it's all
set up.
The big garden tub with little seahorses
on the bottom.
Everything done in a beautiful shade of
crimson.
Big old mirror on the wall.
A little uh
linen closet there.
>> Guess what year it is on that bathroom?
>> Vanity over here.
Okay. You want me to guess the year? All
right. Um I'm going to you know, we
can't
h I think this red around the tub and on
the sink is original. They just painted
the walls to match it. And then we saw
the uh you can see the the trim on the
drywall there.
Um man, it sounds like there's people
out there like tearing crap up, but it's
not. It's just a wind
I would get. And you got the light oak
and you got the brass trim. And these
these mobile homes to me the style is
always like a couple years behind.
Um so I would guess early 2000s. I'm
going to say 2002.
[Applause]
[Music]
What?
>> Nope.
>> What?
>> 95.
>> 95. Huh. Well, we were way off. Okay.
This bathroom is actually pretty big.
Um, it's not in great shape, though. But
they put laminate. Oh, it does have a
shower as well.
with another weird kind of feature above
it.
Just uh what what who who what brand?
Who makes it?
>> I don't know.
>> How'd you find 95?
>> Oh, he's been cheating.
Okay. Well, back out into
the kitchen.
Something I ain't never seen before.
>> What?
>> Whatever the brand.
>> Oh, okay. I'll check it out. Um,
purple countertops.
>> Purple. That's good.
>> A frigid air stove. Looks like it might
be original.
>> You think that's smoke damage?
>> I don't know, man.
>> I think that's just
>> filth, maybe. I don't know.
>> Don't go in there.
>> Pretty bad.
>> Look forward to go. There are a bunch of
little um
I'm going to show this because I don't
think it will uh dox anybody, but um
look what they've done above the
cabinets. There's like a church
congregation up there.
>> Donnie, we got in trouble for our video
about the wallet. Did you see that?
>> Yep.
>> They took it down.
>> Yep.
>> Guys been dead for 30 years.
>> Yep. We found a wallet in one of our our
buildings and um we did a video about it
and YouTube didn't like it so they took
it down.
>> You can show them
>> after years.
>> Be careful.
>> It was up for years.
I wonder why they put the center block
in there if the floor screwed up.
>> I don't know.
>> That's crazy.
>> Back doors right there. They probably
just chuck in the back door.
>> So, here's the laundry room. Look at the
old drywall
uh U design
>> pattern. Yeah, pattern. So, obviously
this is where the washer and dryer would
be. There's a refrigerator there, a a uh
freezer, and I can smell it a little
bit. So, there's probably something in
that freezer. Um, they have put
wallpaper, it appears, or shelf paper on
the freezer.
Okay. And they never took their energy
guide sticker off all these years.
Yeah, it kind of stinks a little bit.
>> Yeah, the food's still in it because the
cabinets here full of food.
>> So, it could be they repossessed it and
then they've been in here u cleaning it
up. Just a plain sink. Old school frigid
air dishwasher. I'll bet that's
original.
>> Looks original. What is that?
>> That's an alarm system.
>> Old alarm system. as I step on
something. All right, let's see what we
got here.
Destiny Industries from Moltry, Georgia.
Built in March of 95.
Hillbborne
Wernern Carter Associated,
Inc. Association, Inc.
It's a Coleman. Oh, no, no, no. The
Coleman is the stove. I mean, the
heater. That makes sense. All
right. So, I guess that's the name. It's
a
Destiny,
I guess.
Manufacturer serial number.
She'll have to tell me, folks. It's a
Destiny Industries.
All right, moving along. Now, there's
also a
bar pass through there.
Again, doesn't go all the way to the
ceiling. I guess they can't really
because it's slanted. So, they
>> be a good breakfast nook.
>> Yeah,
>> especially if you had kids. So you can
sit there and say, "Mom, I need more
sugar in my cereal."
>> Mhm.
>> Kind of cool little little design.
>> All that black stuff is tar paper.
>> It's tar paper.
>> Yeah, that's tar paper,
>> but it split the house apart.
Come from the same. See it hanging down
there somewhere?
>> Yeah.
>> Well,
>> it's got a fireplace. got a fireplace
and a building over there that's
actually still in decent shape. They
didn't really, in my opinion,
they did I don't see like like horrible
abuse of the place. It just kind of wore
out, you know.
>> I think there was no maintenance done.
>> Yeah, there was no maintenance done. Um
they painted it some kind of ugly
colors, but you know, that's subjective.
Um but they didn't they didn't horribly
abuse the house or anything like what we
see a lot of times. And like I said, it
doesn't stink. It does smell a little
moldy. Um because I think there's some
spoiled food.
All right. So,
little hallway. There was something
sitting there. Maybe they had a
bookshelf sitting there.
Um
we've got one bedroom.
>> Go right here. This bathroom. You I
wouldn't walk in there cuz the commode
slipped over. So,
>> yeah, the commode has is slanted. Who
knows what happened there. A lot of
times the bolts get loose on those.
Maybe they went down the road and it
just fell over.
>> Got a nice little build in the closet
and with the red sink and the plastic
the red um um
what do you call it? Vanity
>> right there. That all collapsed
>> the plastic
very unfirm.
Yeah, this this is not abuse though.
It's just, you know.
>> Yeah, I guess that might be
>> it's just um
>> somebody had a dresser or fish tank or
something.
>> They just wore it out.
>> The cables coming up. Must have been the
TV
and that could have happened going down
the road if the TV was sitting there and
fell into the wall.
>> Yeah, we don't know. They could have
still had all the all the junk in it
whenever they moved it and that caused
some of this damage. Um, but if you've
seen our videos, we've seen much worse.
And there's the high window that we were
talking about. That's kind of a good
idea if you had a dresser or something,
you know, or you put the bed there or
something, but, you know, you run into
that probably in every house.
>> Just a regular closet.
And again, you get a good look at the uh
the pattern. There's actually kind of
like a see the shimmering kind of
what do you call it?
It's got a design, but there's also like
a a ghosted design.
>> All right. So, that's on this half of
the house. And then if you walk this
way, you're coming into a hallway.
That back bedroom's got a little stench
to it.
We'll
>> call this the
third bedroom. There's a little bit of
there's like a roll to some of the the
panel the the
what you call it
>> now the flooring. So it's it's it's like
a probably OSB and it's some of it
starting to get weak.
Couple holes in the door.
Um
yeah, I wouldn't say this was horribly
abused. It just it lived life.
>> The big problem with it is no
maintenance.
>> Yeah. Yeah.
>> If you did maintenance on it, 90% of
this wouldn't be here.
>> All right. And then here's the back
other back bedroom. Another kind of just
small one.
>> Is that one catching your nose there?
>> Yeah. A little bit of like a dog smell.
So there may have been an animal in
here. Obviously, there was a bed there,
so you can see where people have been
walking around it. Or maybe the dog was
walking around it.
Well, pretty cool. What do you think,
Donnie?
>> I like it.
But it's probably not for me.
>> Probably not for us.
>> They're going to want 60 probably for
this place.
>> Yeah, this place here, they they want a
fortune for these double wh
>> So, probably ain't going to be for me.
But y'all, if you like what you see,
give us a thumbs up, film, subscribe to
the channel if you hadn't already. We'll
catch you on the next one.
>> Have you ever heard of this
manufacturer? I haven't, but uh we like
these big crazy double wides. So, if you
want to see another vintage double wide,
check out this video. We'll see you on
the next one.
