After a long trip of sitting here trying to figure out how to post an introduction, we finally arrived. We are Mark and Susie from Pennsylvania and have just purchased at an estate auction a
1966 Tradewind. Susie had previously owned a 1991 airstream which was sold before Mark and Susie became a couple. After seeing a different
1966 Tradewind at another auction previously, Mark became hooked. We finally found another one up for auction in Ohio and made the trip, with plenty of tools, air compressor, generator, etc. With all tires flat and sunk (one tire and rim was totally missing) and the trailer was sitting for 15 years, we had it up an running 2 hours after we won the bid. The trip home was easy (5 hours) with no problems. We are thrilled with our purchase. Everything is still original even down to the shower curtain. We have plenty of testing and troubleshooting to do. We hope to make some friends and maybe receive some very helpful advice on this site. Thanks for having us. Mark and Susie
