1976 Argosy 28'

New trailer is on the way home. I cannot wait to see what I bought. Made purchase sight unseen and having it shipped by someone that I have no idea who he is. Should be here sometime Sunday.

Another rear-bed Argosy! And yours still has the Armstrong. The body's apparently straighter than mine, too. Very nice... I hope I got mine cheaper. I look forward to seeing the interior pictures.

Awesome! Great find. Can't wait to see the inside and also see what you do with it.

Armstrong is the original air conditioner that Airstream used in the 1970a. They were very well made and durable, built to last a long time and be serviceable in the field. I have one on my '75 24-footer, and it does a great job.

It finally made it home. Over all a good experience with uship.com. Have not checked plumbing or electricity. My wife and I have great plans. Will keep everyone updated on progress.

DKB_SATX - is this 'the Armstrong' on our trailer? ( also a '76 Argosy 28 )

Yes, that looks to be an Armstrong air conditioner on top of your trailer in the photo.
