Vehicle description
1955 Vintage Airstream Bubble Whale Tail 16 feet 1750 pounds
Totally Restored
It was Just Polished Aug.15, 2019 for a Second Time with a Protectant Coating to stop it from fading and making it easy to wash.
Our “1955” Airstream with a low Vin #233 was one of a small amount made. We kept it original, and did the allowable restoration to keep it comfortable and safe. We were told that In the late 1960’s “The Beach Boys” had this travel trailer.
Wally Byam founded Airstream in 1931. He led Caravans around the world, and his Bubble was number 251. I had number 252, and sold it because this was a lower number and in better shape. Being roadworthy was important to my wife and I.
One of the trailers we once owned went into “The Ohio Historical Society Museum.”
It has a brand new Airstream mattress, new toilet, clear title, new maple wood cabinets, new electrical and plumbing. It also has a new axle and bearings, a dinette that can turn into a second bed, a huge couch with new upholstery, new curtains, a mahogany wood floor, a new two way refrigerator, plenty of storage space with a wardrobe, an awning, screens and a screen door, a Princess stove, countertops, new propane lines and so much more. It is totally ready to be towed long distances. Pull it with almost any car. We even have a spare and keys for this tiny home on wheels for a family of four plus.
All the small vintage ones are going to Europe like our classic cars did and appreciating.
We can refer a transporter at $1.00 a mile if desired, and will also work with International buyers.
You will be able to look me up and verify who I am. Some of the props do not go with the trailer, but the cushions, curtains and some of the pillows do. The rare California trailer Plate would be a separate purchase if desired and purchased in California.
