1957 Overlander on European Ebay
Look what I just found... This ebay Auction is ending in about 4 hours and the price is up to 48,000 Euro!!! That is 64,000 US$...
Wow, that is way too much although it seems to be a nice remodeled Trailer...

The Frame is a new one, made for european regulations e.g. it has a hitchweight of 100kg... It has a Dolby Suround System and a TFT Display on board. The exterior has some show-lights and it has a custom Tent to put before the Trailer (is that a add-a-room or how do you say for that??). The Trailer surely it beautyful, but 64,000 US$ Is a lot of money!!!!

Very good restauration but no more vintage at all and a bit cold for my opinion... Too much perfect exterior; no more vintage Airstream too.
The red numbers are not really well found...

Ok, it was just sold for 48,049 Euro or 64,692.7 US Dollar!!!! For that money, I would buy a new one... It looks really great, but not for that money...

He has a feedback rating of 75%, not good to be getting all those bids. It is one thing to have the bids, quite another to actually get the money. The winning bidder has a feedback of 1.
It is made to look more like a newer CCD trailer, which I don't like.
He rehabbed it in 2006, after importing it in 2005, so he has done a lot in not much time.
He is also in Austria, a long way from most of our European Airstreaming friends.

I just recieved my AS from Florida, home to Norway. The shipping costed me $8400. It is a well-grown trailer, that didn`t fit inside a container, so there you have it... I also have to pay tax for it, before I can start the restauration and have it on norwegian plates. Anyway, I have seen newer AS on Norwegian markedplaces on the net, and the prizes are just unbelivable. I put mine down by the road where my parents live, and in about three hours, four cars stopped to look at it, and one of them went out and took a picture of it. (It really was in need of a wash too...) They are VERY special here in Europe, and if you can spend the money, and like camping, they are being more and more popular over here. I`m 27 years old, and still, I have only seen the total of two my whole life. The other one was on danish plates, and was used as commercial for a diet.

I just sold my 1962 Overlander to a gentleman from Germany. He comes over here once or twice a year, pulls them to Baltimore and loads them on a cargo ship.

Hi Rampage;
A bit surprised by the shipping cost ... To France or Belgium... it's Half ...
Welcome in this new A/S world and a new adventure ( in restauration) begins now !
Bruno.
