ME TO, I HATE TO SEE THEM GO SINCE ONLY MAYBE ABOUT 150 TOTAL MADE AS ARGOSY AND AIRSTREAMS IN THE TWO YEARS THEY MADE THEM.1988 AS ARGOSY AND 1989 AS AIRSTREAMS.
AT LEAST THIS ONE HAS GOOD STARTING PRICE AND NO RESERVE SO SOME ONE SHOULD HAVE $$ LEFT TO FIX IT UP

YOU DO NOT NEED THE LOTTER TO BUY IT BUT MIGHT HELP YOU RESTORE IT TO IT'S ORIGINAL CONDITSION.
SOME TIMES I WISH I WAS YOUNGER SO I COULD TAKE SOMETHING LIKE THIS ON AND BRING IT BACK TO THE GOOD LIFE GOT TO LOVE THOSE SQUARESTREAMS.

Wow - the seller has a 91.5 rating - I didn't know you could have a rating that low and still sell stuff!

Well,it's sold at $2437.00! Someone got a heck of a deal. Hope they do the right thing and restore it. Then it can be placed in the Smithsonian Institution!!!

That 5th wheel looks just about exactly like the one our neighbors are in here at the park. Their's says Avion. What's the difference (s)?? I really don't know much history of these things!

There are two in the RV park where we are staying, I'll post pics of them tonight.
Avion was an almost-(squarestream) Airstream-looking fifth wheel marketed by Fleetwood, IIRC they exited the market circa 1997.
