I tried the link and it was unavailable for some reason.
How did the axles look?

[FireFighter]

for that kind of cash i would have expected polished tanks

[85MH325]

Oops... I guess we trashed the guy's bandwidth for the month with Yahoo...

Gary,
I think the axles looked OK, but this is SEVERAL hours later now, and I didn't look that closely to begin with.

[JohnG]

Yea, I can't get it either. The link isn't working. So I guess I will wonder about this one. Like to see it through.

Just visited the site. Beautiful trailer!!

Looks like it needs axles.

I hope you don't really mean $45K.

How about $4,479?

[59toaster]

It was probably Wally's Personal coache after he sold the 63 that was on Ebay last week.


It's pretty. Probably bring $15k if it has the Goucho. they are out of their mind on the $45k.

For the polished tanks or the polished coach? I'm serious on BOTH!

Yep... I think so too, now that I can see the photo again. Sorry, Gary. I led you astray!

It IS a pretty trailer tho...

Roger

[jdleezer]

Ok, I spoke to soon. That is one beautiful trailer, but where is the gaucho?

You know what they say, you never get out of it what you put into it.

$17,000 tops.

[bredlo]

Yeah, that's a stunner. Way nice. Good choices, keeping the interior very similar to something period, but not going completely overboard, comissioning an old woman in New Mexico to weave the exact same burlap the curtains were made of ...or whatever.

[Ken J]

Very nice coach - not 46k nice though. I would think he might be able to get 1/2 that - he has put some serious money into it.

Have any idea where you can get those full moon hub caps? I like that

Ken

[JohnG]

Nice, in fact very nice, but realistically you could duplicate it 5 times over and still never hit 45K.

This must be what is known as a conversation piece.......................

Baby moons, and beauty rings will give the same effect. I have them, at least for now, on my little trailer.

As the devoted owner of a '66 Trade Wind, I am obligated to report that the INTERIOR of novalis' rig looks eerily similar to mine (OK, except for the bathroom ). BUT, I have a full-size Dometic 3-way fridge, so IF I ever want to sell it, I am asking for that extra hundred grand.

That bathroom is really nice! But after you use it, don't you have to spend 1/2 an hour wiping off the water spots? Guess that's why it's "museum" quality - red rope across the bathroom!

(hi penguin)

That trailer is beautiful. I especially am hopeful looking at the bathroom...couldn't you fashion a bathroom sink/cabinet area out of aluminum the way this person did the sink out of stainless steel? Or is that expensive? We're doomed on the bathroom thing, we ripped the whole thing out BUT the walls are still in...so we're brainstorming what to do about sink/shower/tub now. But of course, first we have to fix the belly pan, and about a thousand other things. I was thinking of eliminating the bathtub, but I like to hike and a nice soak, even if it's curled up in the fetal position, sure is nice after a long sweaty hike.

Just my 2c...
