Major Upgrades:
This Overlander has been fully restored from the floor up with all critical systems brand new. The axles are brand new, professionally installed, and still have the stickers on them. It has brand new tires, brand new electrical wiring, and brand new plumbing throughout. The frame, underbelly, and subfloor were professionally redone, sealed, and painted for long-term durability. A new air conditioner, heater, and two electric ceiling fans were added, along with a skylight dome above the bed for natural light and ventilation. All original jalousie windows were wire-brush cleaned, meticulously restored, resealed, and polished to shine like new.
Interior:
The original layout was preserved with tasteful modern upgrades. The beds were custom rebuilt to match the original style, with opening parts and easy-access storage underneath. Original wood was maintained on the cabinetry for aesthetics, and the original hardware was removed, cleaned, and restored. Additional storage was added near the entry and in the former twin bed area. Every surface inside was carefully refinished to maintain a clean, classic look.
Kitchen:
Updated with brand new butcher block countertops, a new pull-out table, and a brand new refrigerator. New-built cabinetry with original shape and style, with original hardware provides vintage character to the new kitchen. New gas stove, new microwave, new stainless faucet, and original sink restored.
Bathroom:
Completely rebuilt in the original layout. Reglazed tub, restored closets and mirrored cubby, new stainless sink, new stainless faucet spins and doubles to fill your tub, new gorgeous wood countertop. A brand new toilet.
Windows and Lighting:
Lighting is a mix of restored original fixtures and new stylish fixtures for a clean but classic look.
Extras:
Includes a full custom exterior canopy for outdoor shade and entertaining. Sway bar for easy travel. Original outdoor radio antenna for flare. A few additional restored shelves and lights.
Why It Stands Out:
Everything important and functional is brand new, while everything that gives this Airstream its vintage charm has been carefully and professionally restored. This balance makes it both reliable and unique.
