I checked the ad a couple days later and see it's still there, but now the price is $2,550 !

Wuts dat u smokin?
I don't know what's up with this guy. He keeps posting Airstreams on craigslist, and then discourages you from buying or raises the price ???

1950 airstream 21' travel trailer

I called on this one, aske if he had any pictures - nope. He said it's not really usuable, has some creases. Under further questioning, he says it's complete except the bed, but it's not really usuable for anything other than parts. He said he was thinking about making a hot dog stand out of it, and still might. Said he's got a '50, a '52, and a '67. Well... he's got the '50 and a '68 listed. The '68 is here: 1968 airstream 20' good exterior

If you choose to accept this mission - Good luck

Guys like this can be very annoying. Then someone hits them just at the right time and gets one heck of a deal.

I would love to find out about his '52 if it's in reasonable shape.

Sad to think of that '50 ending up as a hot dog wagon.

That is nice. I'm glad I don't have to polish it, with all of those ribs in the skin.

Yeah, it's bad enough hitting a speed bump with your TV. Can you imagine hitting those bumps with your Cyclo? It could be life altering

Grass hopper. You must first polish by hand and only your hands. Then it will be bright and shiny....

Neither word can fully convey the state of decrepitness that trailer is in. Do you think the cinder block is holding up what's left of the floor?

Even older. Try late '50s before the clear view windows which hit the production line in '59. Decrepid condishin I would say. Can you say "parts"?

I think the cinder block IS the floor.

Getting that puppy home would be a major undertaking and then whether there's even $500 in parts is questionable.

It does look pretty sad... Seems to me he had one of those cool old heaters in the corner though... wish he had more pics of the interior like the bathroom.... I am thinking parts...

Actually the floor looks a lot like the floor in the entry our Bambi looked like before restoration... Don had to place a metal plate there so we could actually step inside... just to be sure we didn't "fall through". But all is good now!

Quite the trailer. It would have been neat to see pics of the plaques. I wonder what shape it was in when they acquired it. Some one will get a different trailer to play with.

Painted exterior and gutted interior but the price makes it worth looking at.
