This is a beautiful, fully renovated, 26ft 1966 Airstream Overlander for sale at $75,500- (appraised for $88,500 in June 2023). It has a clean title with no lean. Sleeping 5 comfortably, the functionality of this trailer for a family (or individual) is well thought out. Rear bathroom, converting queen bed in the front dining area, 2 burner gas stove top, fireplace (functional for heat), air conditioner, bunk bed and single bed/reading nook, and a 30-amp service shore power connection are some of the highlights of this travel trailer. There is a large freshwater storage, large grey and black tanks (brand new with new plumbing), and the highest quality batteries and inverter keep power flowing efficiently and safely on any excursion.
