Here you will find Airstream company records, but no prices on the motorhomes. Look way down the list to find the motorhomes BTW.

The other folks who might be of help are the Vintage Airstream Club people.

Very difficult to give a price as the option list could easily bloat the base price by 30-40 thousand.

For example my 1938 310 base price was just shy of 80 thousand, but the total price once options had been installed was 108 thousand. My turbo diesel option alone was 15K.

Roughly the average gas motor price would be $125,000- $145,000 for a mid 80's 345.

Cheers
Tony

If you look in 1992, you can see the 250 price list with all the options prices. In simple terms, they are probably equivalent to about $250'000 at today's prices, depending on options which were selected at the time.
