1Opinion of the Court

Lawson Cloninger, Judge.

The sole issue on this appeal is the commercial reasonableness of the sale of a repossessed mobile home. We find that the trial court erred in finding that appellee disposed of the mobile home in a commercially reasonable manner in accordance with the Uniform Commercial Code, Ark. Stat. Ann. § 85-9-504 (Supp. 1983). We reverse and remand.
