Hang in there - you'll find one! Have you looked on Craigs List? Many of us looked for a long time. Small Airstreams are most in demand. be prepared to buy quickly when you finally find one - they don't last long.

Yes I have a 19' 1961 globetrotter airstream. In good condition, was planning to remodel, but now need to sell. Located in southern Rhode Island.

Janet is right! You will need to look everywhere and buy quickly when you find one that works! Craigslist.com is a great spot to look. Continue to search ebay each week it will give you an idea of what is moving and what isn't and what folks are willing to pay. Be sure and look at the forum classifieds as well! Google "airstreams for sale" and see if you find other sites for 'streams. I would also scour the local papers and local penny saver type advertisers. Or, post an ad yourself saying you are looking for a 19 footer!

It takes time, we looked for a long time to find one we liked and that was at a price that didn't scare the bejeebers out of us! Hang in there, make looking a full time hobby! You will find just the right one!

In the meantime, look at other Airstreams that size and see what folks have done for renovation, etc. See what they use to tow the trailer. Make lists of things to check out when you do find a airstream to buy. There are some very good threads about what to look for when buying an airstream!

Good luck!
