I have an old 1967 trailer on my place that i have built 2x6 trusses over livingroom in the past but many of those little like 1x1 trusses(bow shaped) have lost their bow. I have tried in the past to jack up the top piece and put plywood between(then attach) with little improvement....any ideas how to revitalize it? Thieves pretty well trashed it while I was overseas. Would I be farther ahead to buy a used one to replace it and if so.....what would an old single wide with peaked roof cost for for a replacement? Is there a book value for them?
