 &nbps; Visit Store 1978 Argosy Minuet 6m - Rare and Restored - Ready to Camp Exterior Color: tan Title Condition: Clear History:
In 1971, Airstream launched a new sub-brand under the name Argosy. Although owned and sold by Airstream, the Argosy trailers were produced in their own plant in Versailles, Ohio. Argosy was created as a mid-price alternative to the high-end Airstream brand in an effort to broaden the market for their trailers. It was also the "test kitchen" for new design ideas, new materials, and new floorplans for Airstream in the 1970"s.
In the great Argosy experiment, nothing was more revolutionary than the Minuet line, produced for only 3 years from 1977 to 1979.
The Minuet was created to market to small car owners and gas conscious consumers - they were narrower - only 7 ft. wide, and used light weight materials wherever possible - including the floor which was Aluminum instead of plywood in some of the trailers.
Description:
Which brings us to this little beauty - a 6m Argosy Minuet built in 1978.
Very few of the 6m Minuets were made, and this is one with the rare Aluminum Floor. I purchased this trailer in New Mexico from a long term owner - the trailer is very solid, rust free. The original interior was all in tact when I found it - but the trailer needed a full systems update and new cosmetics to bring it back to life.
Restoration work was performed in Tucson AZ and includes:
Full Steam Clean Interior
Bathroom sink removed and custom countertop installed
New Roof Vent and Fantastic Fan Vents installed
New Electric Converter and Fuse panel
New Pex Plumbing and electric Water Pump
New Hot Water Heater
Tub and Shower Surround Refinished with new Orange trim installed
Stainless Steel Stove cover and Oven Front refinished and powder-coated
New Black-out Curtains throughout
New Window Screens
New Exterior Orange Trim
New Propane Regulator and Hoses
"period correct" shagadelic terra-cotta carpet installed
New 225 profile tires and bearings repacked
All exterior market lights replaced
Other stuff I"m probably forgetting
