This 1964 Airstream Overlander is unrestored but in usable condition. It is mostly original with some updates. 1964 was a good year for Airstreams. The door-within-a-door screen door was still available. Interiors were solid wood and veneered plywood, not the plastic and aluminum extrusions of later models. The windows are regular flat glass which can be replaced at any glass shop should one get broken.
We replaced the Overlander with a 1974 Sovereign which we completely gutted and rebuilt, including replacing the floor, repairing the frame and replacing the axles. We have a good understanding of what is involved in renovating and maintaining a vintage Airstream as we did all of the work ourselves and own other vintage campers. We want to make sure that you have a clear idea of the condition of this trailer so you have no unpleasant surprises. We would be happy to have you look at the trailer in person if you are able, and will answer all of your questions as clearly as we can. At some point in the future this Overlander will need the floor repaired or replaced and may need repair to rusted areas on the frame, but we see no reason that it can’t be used in its current condition. There are soft spots in the floor to the front and rear of the door.
The interior is mostly original with the exception of the dinette which replaced a gaucho couch. We designed and built the dinette table to be raised to table height or lowered to make a bed. It only takes a few seconds to raise or lower. We slept one adult and one child on the dinette, an adult and two children on the bed and one child on the floor. To make the bed larger we removed the closet doors and had a platform that folded out to fill the gap next to the bed. If you have children and are interested in this modification I can send you more information and we will include the fold-out platform if you like. We only stopped using the trailer because it was too small when our kids reached their teenage years.
