Good score!  Better than Tiffany's almost most recent purchase..... an 04 Featherlite that had bent doors, a divider ripped out of the wall, and a floor that separated from the walls..... "but it's only 9300!  Fix it up and it's a 16k trailer!" Horse women, I tell ya

Propane is easy to mount.  Personally I'd build walls to actually hold the tanks in place and prevent rocks/road crap from getting in there.

Easiest way I've seen to wire the battery in line is to run the hot pin from the truck directly to the battery, then just unplug the trailer when camping. Is that the safest way to do it? Debatable.

Mounting the battery is another question, in the picture above you can see a shelf above the spare tire that looks like it has a battery in it..  The rest is easy, especially the last (should be first or middle) task!

You should have a hot wire coming back to your trailer hitch wiring. That should go straight to the battery on the trailer.  That's how factory camp trailers are.
