Super rare / collectors item 1948 Wee Wind Airstream. Fully renovated, compact 16 feet!!!
This airstream might be one of the rarest in existence! Her sisters have been preserved in museums and James Hetfield of Metallica owned one of the few left in existence.
She’s looking for her next stewards who understand her rarity and want to be her next conservators for generations to come.
She is lightweight at 1500 pounds dry and she tows like a dream. She turns heads wherever she goes!
I have all paperwork and service records with a clean title in my name. She has recently been through a professional RV service check and all systems are in excellent working order.
This sexy lady has been lovingly renovated and upgraded with modern comforts. The original 1948 interior was pretty teeny and not super functional for how we live today. She’s got all of the professionally built systems that you could want. The interior feels surprisingly spacious with a large kitchen and queen bed. Please note that this model is petite and never included a bathroom. We use a stowable luggable loo system for emergency bathroom needs. The outdoor shower is a real luxury!
All of her modern systems have been professionally installed in Portland, Oregon:
Maxxair fan
Outdoor shower
Girard water heater
12 V / 110 Norcold fridge
Suburban propane furnace
110 amp hours AGM battery
AC/DC 30 amp electrical system with new converter

Propane, CO2 and smoke detectors
New tires with chrome hubcaps
Fresh new low VOC paint throughout with eco marmoleum flooring

Ample storage IKEA drawer system and custom cabinets
Induction cook plate which can be stored
Lightweight birch ply counter

Chalkboard paint on the interior of door for your social media handle and notes from friends

Please note that she has not been polished. I’m having trouble finding a reputable company to work with.

Consider these tips in order to send or receive payment safely.
Know the vehicle’s market value
Be very suspicious of any vehicle priced significantly below market value. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Confirm contact information
Verify the seller’s physical address and phone number BEFORE SENDING PAYMENT. Zip codes, area codes and addresses should match up.
Use email wisely
Do not send personal or financial information (such as your social security number, credit card number or checking account number) to a seller via email. Email communications are not secure.
Do not use money transfer services, such as Western Union to pay for online purchases
Even Western Union recommends against using their service or similar services to pay for online purchases. Be cautious about any seller who will only accept a money transfer.
If using an escrow service for payment, make sure it is a reputable, valid escrow service
Some buyers, purchasing outside their local area, may consider using an escrow service. If so, make sure it is a legitimate service. Go directly to the website of the escrow service. Do NOT go to an escrow service through a link in the seller’s e-mail or use a service based on a referral from the seller. Check the web address to make sure you are at the valid website.
Get a detailed receipt
Ask the seller for a receipt that states whether the Airstream is being sold with a warranty or “as is.”
Get title to the vehicle
Make sure you know what’s required in your state to transfer title to the vehicle you’re buying.
Confirm contact information
Be wary of buyers willing to purchase your item sight-unseen, especially buyers located overseas. Always verify the buyer’s street address and valid phone number.
Verify that a certified check is genuine
Verify authenticity with the issuing bank prior to depositing a certified check. Make sure the account contains sufficient funds and the issuing bank guarantees payment on the check. Once deposited in your account, it may take a week or more for the check to clear. Acceptance by your bank does not guarantee the check is valid and funds are available. A cashier’s check can take 30 days or more to clear.
Secure payment first
Do not transfer the title until you have payment in hand at the agreed upon price (and you have verified that the payment is valid.
Beware of overpayment or other complicated payment schemes
Do not agree to any plan where the buyer asks to send a check for more than the sale price and requests that the seller refund the difference. Be suspicious of any buyer who proposes making payment through a friend or agent of the buyer.
