“When you enter this vintage Airstream trailer you enter another world. The inside is the original Philippine mahogany that has not been altered since it was launched in 1965. It is called a ‘land yacht’ because it feels like you are walking into a wooden boat. I have not seen a layout I like better than this model. It has 2 couches that slide out to become double beds, dining table that folds when traveling, a galley kitchen, and then towards the back is another couch/bed with a full closet. In the back is the sink, tub/shower, and toilet (see photo of layout). Most of the trailer is vintage airstream and it comes with the original Airstream owners’ manual, warranty, appliance manuals, and other paper work original to the 1965s Airstream. The aesthetics of the Airstream have been maintained. I truly love this trailer- she is a gem – and I think she is rare in terms of being original, well-cared for, and has the original mahogany wood throughout. I would call this trailer original with a partial restoration.” Thank-you for your interest, Jackie
