This is a true unicorn. This rare 1955 Flying Cloud Whale Tail (built in Los Angeles) lived most of it life in a barn. Incredible condition. Original refrigerator, stove, amazing OVEN (!) heater, lights, cabinets, screens and vents, are all in good working conditions. Beautiful new dinette with upholstered benches and hardwood table folds down to king size bed. Two twin beds in back (with removable dog bedin middle) fit two full size adults and a large dog because of the ingenious whale tail rear design ( adds extra 1’).
This is a rare unit built without the bathroom which we prefer. It’s minimal, light and easy. Skin still shines up bright and is in incredible condition for 1955. Tows perfectly, ready to camp. We are the third owners and mostly enjoyed “Lucy” camping on Jalama Beach in Santa Barbara county and camping in Harvest Host winery vineyards around California.
Previous owner added new floor and king size bed / dinette and did some work refinishing cabinets. We added new tires, wheel bearings, new propane tanks, and a fantastic hydraulic jack.
Comes equipped with bedding for twin beds, dishes and glassware, and a brand new portable toilet that can be mounted in the large closet if desired.
Almost new Honda EU3200I generator available, if desired, for an additional 2400. You can’t buy these in CA any longer – great generator. We used this to power lights and our espressos machine which also provided hot water for dishwashing, etc.
Lucy is ready for someone who wants to continue to preserve her vintage charm while adding useful upgrades. However she is in great shape and ready for your first camping adventure the minute you drive away with your new beauty!
