Vehicle description
You are looking at a 1966 Airstream Tradewind, restored with a reverence for its original design and vibe. The first owner kept it in a barn most of its life in Idaho, it was rescued by another party and after he had it for a year and had done nothing with it, sold it to me this year.
Here are some of the highlights:
Painted bright white throughout Repainted propane tanks and Roof vents white with exterior enamel, repainted all black frame of trailer with rustoleum.
Repainted awning a custom polka dot pattern you won’t find anywhere else!
Replaced floor with new custom laminate wood floor with trim, in main areas and closets Replaced bathroom floor with penny tiles (there are no lines in person, I don’t know why the camera does that!) Installed hexagon tiles along shower wall Resurfaced counter and tub in bathroom with porcelain paint Coated bath floor (before tiling) with Redgard waterproof membrane Made custom cabinet fronts and latches for compartments under gaucho pullout beds, with heavy duty iron art deco pulls from Anthropologie Beautiful one of a kind, quality Indian rugs Reupholstered red vinyl gaucho cushions (couches fold out into full size beds)
Replaced counter tops with 1.5” American Cherry butcher blocks, with an improved (bigger!) countertop extension Upgraded to LED lighting throughout, new lens covers for all interior light fixtures, one is missing over kitchen in picture, but it will be included in sale New thermostat
New reading light in bedroom with USB charging port 24” LED Flatscreen TV Custom decorative tin covers for roof vents
New city water inlet and new freshwater intake port New 100 Ah Deep Cycle RV house battery Replaced broken fuses New cupboard latches Brand new glass back windshield and trim Brand new Dometic toilet and flange 4 New tires with original hubcaps New shurflo water filter Installed custom wallpaper throughout Installed heavy blackout curtain for bathroom door (swiss cross pattern) Professionally polished two years ago, will shine up to a mirror finish with minimal effort, still shines like a diamond though! The sun started setting on me when taking photos, but really, she sparkles in the sunshine.
Includes the wooden picnic table in the pictures (folds up neatly into a briefcase) and the interior rugs, the rest of the decor is not included.
Though not pictured, all screens for windows are included.
The Atwood 6 gallon water heater, Suburban furnace, Armstrong AC, Dometic 3 way refrigerator, Magic Chef oven/cooktop, Univolt, water pump are all original and all in working condition, and in some cases are better than their replacements would be. I wanted to keep the 60s vibe by hanging onto the original appliances and fixtures, you could upgrade those if you want, but this little adventure machine on wheels is ready to be used as is, for glamping the National Parks, a guest house, as an Airbnb or bed and breakfast, a mother in law apartment, rental property, auxiliary apartment for your college kid living at home attending remotely, you name it!
She pulls straight and has virtually no rust. It’s a shame to have to part with her. So much lighter than my 31’ International Sovereign, she weighs in about 4000 lbs dry weight and can be towed by most light trucks/full sized SUVs.
Ask all questions before you buy :) All reasonable offers considered. She’s not perfect, but she sure is purty for a 54 year old :) We greatly exceeded our budget makin this girl special but I lost my job due to Covid so we are forced to pass her on again.
Take the plunge, live the dream! May she find the right home.
