West Africa Move - Selling Airstream

[2333]

This is a tough post.

The family and I are moving to West Africa where I will serve as a Peace Corps Medical Officer. This is a great opportunity that we couldn't pass up.
I would love to do an Airstream Caravan there, but they won't ship vehicles or trailers.

So, I am selling my 1962 Tradewind. I am only 1/2 way finished with the shell-off project, but my loss could be your gain.

I wanted to post it here before alerting the general public. There's nothing hidden and no surprises since everything I have done it posted here....

1962 Tradewind - Renovation Epic

Basically, it is a frame off renovation.

1. Frame repaired and 2 coats of POR-15
2. New Duraflex axle and electronic brakes.
3. New insulation under floor.
4. New plywood floor, sealed.
5. New wheel wells and C-channel (straight sections).
6. Insulated door, new door seal, and re-riveted hinges.
7. Shell back on and re-riveted in place.
8. New rear lights and running lights.
9. 2 new Maxxfans installed.

The trailer is gutted with interior walls off right now.

• I have a roll of 700 sq.ft. of Prodex.
• I have the original stove and kitchen cabinetry.
• The rest of the interior was not salvageable.
• The trailer needs electrical done, insulation, interior walls, and then whatever interior design you'd like. Then you go camping.

So take a look at the thread and PM me if interested. I haven't set a price but will probably go with cost of the trailer and then all the new materials. Of course, I will leave labor out, because that was the fun part!!!

This is a sad day for me.
