Want the vintage Airstream experience without the old interior? This trailer was completely rebuilt by Airstream specialists Rivet Renovations near San Diego in spring 2023, including upgrades to its systems, safety, and styling. At 18 feet, it’s easy to tow and ideal for road trips, hosting guests, using as an office, and renting as an ADU. The light-filled open floor plan, large rear bath with full shower, and spacious dinette lounge make this little trailer feel roomy and relaxing. The extra-long queen bed, converted from the dinette, can sleep two adults comfortably (90″ x 57″). The vintage exterior is in great condition for its age and just got a professional polish.
See below for a list of the new materials and systems.
