Title: 1969 Airstream Globetrotter 21 - North Carolina
I just posted a new ad on Airstream Classifieds.
For sale or trade, our 1969 vintage Airstream, a 21' GlobeTrotter. It's a single axle trailer. Selling because we are ending our travels and won't use it once we return to work.
This trailer has just completed a tour of the United States. It has many updates and is in great mechanical order. Pulls easily and straight, and it can be pulled with a 1/2 ton truck (We used a Tahoe to pull it all around the US). The trailer is roughly 3,500 lbs based on original manufacturer specs and updates.
There have been many improvements to the trailer, with more than $4,000 spent on custom awning and installation and professional mechanical services in 2016. The Airstream is towable and liveable as-is, and she gets all sorts of compliments and inquiries wherever we go.
The trailer is 47 years old and just completed a trip of thousands of miles, so it does have some old and new dings and dents inside and out, which I address in more detail below.

This trailer is usable and liveable as-is. I have towed it and lived in it for thousands of miles, though here are a few issues that could need addressing, if you want:
- On our trip, a rock shattered one of the fixed pane windows on side of trailer. It has a plexiglass, duct tape patch on it. Repair would require purchasing OEM window and riveting it in place.
- There are various dings and dents around the shell, mostly from before my time and mainly on the lower parts.
- Inside some original light fixtures and cabinet pulls are broken. Never looked for parts, just lived without them.
- Front windows are plexiglass. No idea how long they have been there. One leaks in heavy rain.
- The step that folds under entry door is gone, and appears to have been gone for decades. It would require metal work to repair.
- Some soft spots around edge of floor, but not in areas where people walk.
Pictures:
The pictures shown are from February 2016 before some of the updates described above and from our travels during the year. I will have current pictures as soon as I clear our gear out of trailer. If you are interested though, I suggest you come see it.
