A CALIFORNIA TRAVEL TRAILER
The only other known one out there now is Number 251 that I recently sold. We sold it because my wife did not like the polished inside. It made her dizzy. This one also has a Princess four Burner Stove and the other one did not. This is Number 233 and was owned by the "Beach Boys." Being a California trailer it did not endure icy salty roads.
We have restored this beauty recently.
Airstreamers and Caravanners: This is the best investment you will ever make. As you probably know, these small ones are going abroad, and they are totally disappearing. Only a small amount was made. It will appreciate big time like the classic cars. I wish I could keep this one, but room on the set does not allow it. Again, Please note Previous Owners stated that “The Bubble had been owned by “The Beach Boys” and also used in a “Charlies Angels" Episode." See pics.

The props and pillows do not go with with trailer. The Curtains, Cushions and all the Appliances do come with what is listed above. It is sold in Ventura, CA in an as is condition. It has a clear title.
I have had a 100% positive feedback on Ebay since 1999, and you would be able to search my name.
I will be advertising in many venues, and expect this to sell quickly. I reserve the right to cancel this ad at anytime. We also have to offer at an extra price, a Cover for the tanks (See in Photos) if desired. If purchased in California, we would sell the 1951 Original Travel Trailer rare clear plate with the 1955 tag at an extra price.
I can refer a transporter at $1.00 per mile. I will also work with International buyers. I have sold around the world and my feedback speaks for itself.
The Bubble started with number 200. The Vin on this is 233. Wally Byam who traveled in his Bubble, and made these Airstreams famous was number 251. See his photo. Again this is more desired because it is a lower number than Wally.
This is a solid trailer that tows and travels like a new one. Great for Camping, an Office, Pool house, or whatever.
You are welcome to come see it. I have sold many trailers from my television production company.
Upon the close of bidding a non-refundable deposit of $8500 is due by wire transfer with the balance in the same manner within three days. No returns and serious buyers only.
This is the ultimate of Airstreams. I encourange you to call and make a decent offer. This is not only a great tiny home on wheels, but a dynamite investment. Great for an Airbnb. It will bring more money and publicity. Look who owned it.
