There will have to be a second door installed somewhere on the trailer, it would be extremely inconvient to install the lift on the primary door. I think the rear bath on the older trailer is usable with some modifications, like removing the rear sink. I've made similar modifications to our last trailer which was a 22' +/- Coachmen (really a Terry), On it I removed all of the cabinets on the right side and dinette. My wifes chair is 28.5 inches wide, so she needs a door 30" wide to fit.
If money is no object (ha!) Airstream built and probably still builds for the right customers, 34' two door models. If you were to find one of these, you could modify one of the doors to accept a lift of some kind, while leaving the other for people without need for special entry options. These coaches were built in the 90's, and one of the moderators here on the forums has one.
