Welcome to our original (before the reno) 1966 26′ Airstream Overlander. Its a rear-bath, double bed model with the kitchen on the passenger side. We found in on Craigslist.com priced at $2750. The Ads went something like this, “66 Airstream, clean inside and out. Complete – everything works!”
We had casually shopped for trailers over the past few months and everything we had seen was J-U-N-K! So when we saw this trailer we were impressed…it appeared to be in pretty good shape and complete as described. I tried to feel out a lower price but as we looked at the trailer the owner had several calls on it and a guy chomping at the bit to come pick it up from Seattle. At the time I was glad we were first in line. Needless to say with all the interest he was firm on the price – which seemed to be a pretty good price based on what we had looked at in the past.
So these pictures were taken after towing the Land Yatch home and after a good cleaning / purging the PO (previous owners) goods. (The sweet wolf blanket, pillow and sunflower curtain pictured was one of the PO treasures we inherited)
Wow! Looks like a bargain…super clean inside! I’ll be excited to see what you do with it. We bought a new Bambi last year, but I think someday, I’d like to buy a larger vintage one and fix it up! Have fun 🙂
Love the new Bambi’s! Some days I wish we would have opted for a less needy trailer…but in the end it will all be worth it.
