Yikes! Did this pass an inspection like that? I'd highly suggest moving this higher up on the TODO list. Whether its a panel that needs replacing or just a cover needs to be replaced, it should be corrected. Please, don't become a statistic! </randoInternetNanny>

I have no idea when's the last time an inspector saw this place. It's a mobile home manufactured in the 60s so a lot of lax code is probably grandfathered in. The panel is too high and out of the way for a child to reach and I'm smart enough not to touch it. I imagine whoever I sell the house to is going to demolish it anyway.
In other words, contemporaneous with the Chevy Corvair, and pre-dating most modern safety regulations.
Hey! I liked my Corvair. I learned how to drive in a Corvair. It was also the car father/son project where I learned I had no interest in being a grease monkey.
