ray romano selling RVs?
That was the first thing I was thinking . Sounds just like him.
He is a cutie, was happy to see the voice matched the face🎈

I was an Airstream trailer mechanic 43 years ago in London Ontario Canada and there's nothing on the road that comes close to the quality and the look. I actually trained at the airstream factory in Ohio. This brings back many great memories for me. Thanks for posting this video.
Dave Parry I currently work at airstream
wow.. how do you go about staring a job like that? 22year old here nearly donr with the schooling to work full time as a car tech, but i want to work heavy duty. i owned an rv for about a year last year (:
Dave Parry sorry i busy.
Yes...43 years ago they were the best yet...the newer ones are a bit marginal. But an older one and restore it.
Just thought it was odd to see London Ontario that’s were I’m from lol
Wow, how many other 30 year old motor homes would be this presentable? Love seeing how things held up over the years.
Thank you for checking out Colonial Airstream.
The stains were gross.
My husband would love this RV. It’s really amazing how well they took care of it.
It really is!
Airstreams are in a class all their own , nothing else compared to the quality craftsmanship
Appreciate the support.
We as a young family and now as adults have always had an Airstream to enjoy. I never get tired of people asking "what does it look like inside?" I proudly show them. We are on our 4th. The 31 foot is the right size for us and they are beauties! Airstream forever.
Thank you for watching and sharing your story.
my heart goes out to those who preserve the beauty of times gone by. i"m sure it took a lot of care to keep this piece of art,in such nice condition. it makes the world a better place.
Thanks for checking us out.
Its a beauty

I came down to comment on the awesome cast aluminum grill, and saw the impressive 2,803 who came before. Folks love Airstream for good reason. I'm now at an age where stuff sold in my 20's is treated like antique. My Grampa told me this would happen.
Welcome aboard!
I LOVE this Airstream , would only hope and dream to find one like it someday. I just want to live on the road, go wherever the wind blows me. If I don't like the looks of a place or it is too busy , somebody at Walmart gives me some crap, no problem, I just ease on down the road to another town. The life of Riley! I was never happier than when I lived in my camper . Can't wait to get back to that life.
Sounds like a plan.
What I love about the airstream company is they don't mess with success. If it worked well in 87, it will work in 2017. As well, in a time where cheap RV's are pumped out of factory's (Jayco's for example), these will still be together in 20 years
Opinion Matters my 2013 probably won’t be.... or if it is, it’s because I’ve spent thousands switching out the cheaply made stuff.
The dinette cushions very cheap, needed to replace every cushion in the thing. The steps into the coach are the steel garbage they use on all other RVs and you can’t switch them out for the aluminum ones they used to have because the opening is too wide. The windows used to be wrapped with metal and now they are not there’re just a single piece of glass.... The interior of airstreams used to have a vinyl coating on everything inside and now it’s just bear shiny aluminum....
Today you’re lucky to get 1/2 of what you pay for.
I own an 88 Airstream 345 with the same floor plan. Still a pleasure to watch this walk thru. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching. Happy Airstreaming
What's the gas mileage ?
@@chery6030 Probably very bad since it's a V8.
I as well. I bought it to live in while I had a house built. I only paid 3500 for it and it was in rough shape. I put 8k recently after being parked for 17 years and drove it to Florida from New Mexico and back to New Mexico. Very comfortable trip. So glad I kept it. I had several offers on it and some very generous offers but I’ve grown very attached to it and I would consider buying another one but I can’t see parting with this one. They are very interesting and unique. I did all the work myself and it’s been very rewarding. I’m fixing to pull the radiator and get a new core put in it. Still has the original radiator but electrolysis has ate it up. And I’m planning a trip to Michigan this fall. The P30 chassis is pretty durable from the 80s. Still runs real strong and the banks power pack is a plus to.
@@chery6030 over a 4800 mile trip I averaged 6.8mpg. I kept it under 60 but if you get over 65 it drops off to about 4.5-5. So it’s pretty bad but considering what hotels cost and sleeping on a strange bed and a strange toilet I would rather pay for the fuel.
Ah man, I didn’t realize this video was 7 years old until after I watched it. What an amazing motorhome. I hope whoever bought it took good care of it, it’s a beauty!!
Glad you like it.
@@colonialairstream And you still reply on old videos… now that’s great customer service!
@@colonialairstream, I noticed that you never answered other commentators question of how much it sold for?
I think this is very cool! Extremely well built and innovative for that time. Would love to see it renovated.
Glad they left it alone for the most part. My parents had a newer model with a Diesel engine, same Nutone food processor and a rear bedroom with a shower-over-bathtub and sliding door (glass or Plexi). They had a TV, antenna and hookups for their laptop. Some of the lighting was fluorescent. They used to take it on the road for the whole summer (sometimes into October) and go on Airstream Caravans with a group of other Airstreamers and take over RV parks and public fields, by means of an itinerary, moving on to the next one and doing the same. Sometimes they'd go on one tour and pick up another on the way to friends and family. This was during the time when Caravan meant something else.
if only I could win the powerball, I would come all the way from colorado to buy an airstream from you. You are very thorough, you help me snoop in every nook and cranny of these homes on wheels. You explain everything. I sit here and tell you to open this door or that slide and you do. Like magic! lol.
Thank you for helping folks like myself to dream a little.
Thank you for watching and for enjoying my format.
Well thought out, Well engineered, Well put together = Fabulously Timeless - I'm seating in awe right now.
I always wanted to see the inside of one of these Airstreams motorhomes, and there, you made it happen.
Thank you for checking us out.
I graduated from HS the year this was made. Nostalgic for me,thank you!
That's awesome!
M me too
Absolutely amazing!! Canadian here and just love the look and how well built they are!
Me too
I seriously love these old Airstream Motorhomes, since my divorce back in 1999
I've been putting my life back together and making plans for the future, I could
seriously see myself moving into one of these and parking it next to a small
machine and fab shop / Man Cave with a patio area Between the two. Small,
Comfortable, Simple. And still with the ability to travel when needed or when
I would want to.
Thank you for watching.
I’m a bachelor and I could see myself living in one of these!
I am going to sell my house soon. I really want one of these. I was thinking of buying a fancier newer motor home but THIS is what I want. Is this available as a diesel?
I’d love to know the price, it’s perfect! What a class all of its own!
Dude, it's massive, and it's probably less overpriced than a house, it's perfect
To hell with upgrades. Maybe a little cleaning and fixing. I like it the way she is. Beautiful.
Agreed.
Keep coming back to snooping at Airstreams
Was thinking the same.
I ZS, same...
How much did she sell for?????
My late father wanted an Airstream very much. Sadly, finances never permitted it. I’d like to think he’s in Heaven, with mom, driving all over in a beautiful airstream.
Thanks for sharing!
My wife's grandfather had one of these. You couldn't get me out of it on a hot day, lol.
Lots of memories.
What a beautiful vintage rig, and a great presentation that gave her justice.
Thank you Glenn
I bought one of the other two that Colonial sold, a 1986 345. I arrived on the lot, fell in love with it and almost bought it without any inspection. It has been on the lot for about an hour, I believe.
I remember that day about 15 years ago.
Do you?! That's great! I wrote a book about my adventures in it that has been selling well on Amazon for over 6 years. How NOT to RV: An RVer's Guide to RVing in the Absurd. It's full of bloopers and how (not) tos and life wisdom. I'll send you a copy. :-)
Wow! The 80’s...these were my times I grew up in. We were entering the age of fast evolving technology. This baby was must have been considered top of the line for the average consumer... The 70’s and 80’s baby! Good times for me !
Thank you for checking out Colonial Airstream.
Colonial Airstream Never saw a better more complete, informative tour. Wow, and thank you. First time I ever felt a little envious of something I don't have.
Glad it was helpful!
Looks absolutely stunning.. I hope however buys it appreciates the original condition
Thanks for watching, I hope so too.
@@colonialairstream when did it sell?
Patrick,,, You get the Major "ATTA BOY !!!" Reward for presenting the Best Videos... You take your time,,, You are not herky-jerky with your camera,,, very clear voice... You made this Classic proud... I'll be calling for a price and a chat... Jack in Little Rock
Jack In Little Rock...no one wants to hear from you.
Together with the GMC Moterhome, this is my favorite RV!
My word what a beauty! If I had the money...
Great old motor homes.
Too bad they don't make 'em like this anymore. And not enough old (and good preserved) ones are left, for any decent money
What would be perfect with this Airstream 345 Motorhome, is to connect a small Airstream trailer behind it. And to have that trailer converted into a 'garage' for a classic (Rover/Austin) Mini (for local trips and grocery-runs)!
Yup! That would totally work for me! (^^,)
ALWAYS lov THESE mobile homes. Thanks for the tour. They were built to last. ❤️❤️❤️😊😃🖐️👌👍
Glad you like them!
For anyone hooked on 'trailing homes' as it were, your portrayals of the different models are a true treat! - The show of this mighty Classic 345 gets one literally salivating to head out into the great outdoors! - Thanks again Patric for sharing your passion! :-)
Eric, what an awesome coach.
Talk about your house on wheels , believe me this pure luxury . My family and I lived in a Rv for years, if we could have afforded a Motor Home like this one,wow even today that old baby makes most RVs look really cheap. They don't make them this good any more,unless it' cost at least a million$ . This is a beautiful mother home. Well built.
Thank you for watching.
What did these cost new?
Lucky
Look up a Newell
@@tzuten the only thing that competes with these is a bluebird wanderlodge it might even be a step up from these since its chassis is made by a bus manufacturer using buses made for a million miles use.
Home sweet home right there. Didn’t realize how old this vid was, yet he still responds to comments, that’s a guy that cares. That really was a choice unit. A 45’ fifth wheel would be nice , I’m 🤔 about a permanent home.
True.
Airstream is a name I remember from my childhood.I still notice when I see them on the road.I even new as a kid that airstream meant quality.good walk thru.
Thank you Jane.
Patrick, you give an excellent tour! It is evident that you went over everything and rehearsed in advance. No um's or errrr's, and you never said, "and here you have your...". Low key and comfortable, not all hyped up. Really good. Look at that: over 28 minutes in one take! Hollywood would be jealous.
Thank you for the kind words. Please check out my other walk through videos.
Andrea Knox Easily one of the best RV guys on UA-cam.
Yes! It was really good video! I don't like so much ofn talking-head-videos that the selöfie generation produces... And a calm voice is always nice to hear (many young women seem to talk like small children, I don't know why).
That's the way Bollywood starlets speak. Very annoying...
He did not have to rehearse, Andrea. It's obvious that he knows his business and the Airstream line, both old and new. . Excellent salesman. Very well done video of a great classic vehicle.
I've driven and repaired a lot of these working for an Airstream dealer in Ohio,this one was finally starting to improve,rear air ride axle helped,always felt they were overpriced but if you drove one in a extreme storm this thing would cut thhrough it like butter. Were definitely better with wind and passing big rigs,all in all a pretty decent Airstream 😊😊
Thanks for the tour! You surely know a lot about this model, pleasure to watch
Thank you very much.
That's really cool. You can tell the owners took good care of it.
Glad you enjoyed it.
This would be $230,000 if it was made today. It is beautiful. I would love to restore this.
Peter Evans, so true! 😂
Lol right? Why don't we just tear down all the old buildings and crush all the old cars and just build new ones every three years? Wait no every year lol. I mean who wants this old thing right? Lol Yeah new is always better lol, lol, lol....
@Peter Evans I right what do we even need any historical anything for? Lololol lol. I mean let's just keep building new everything constantly. It'll give all the shiftless people on unemployment something to do and then spend their money on. We can also keep raping the the earth for raw materials that way. Hey maybe those smart Chinese can help us build cheap disposable things. I'm SURE it'll all be safer. Safety first right. Hahahahahahahaha lol.
@Peter Evans you must be one of the most stupid people I have ever came across🤣 litteraly everything made to day is disposable junk designed to last 3yr max. They cannot even make houses properly now you complete twerp. Keep your modern "made In china" tech and we shall take care of our older well made stuff that doesn't break down constantly. The fact you even insinuated modern tech is anything but tat is beyond the pale.
@Peter Evans "safe buildings" ? All buildings are safe till you fill them with flammable stuff. Bricks and mortar have never caught fire you tool of a boy.
that's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen
Thanks for watching.
Great video. Classic piece of American craftsmanship. Built to last. I remember these!
Very cool!
That’s a nice old motor home. Well maintained for it’s age. I wouldn’t do any more to it than a good cleaning on the interior, good maintenance and touch-up on the outside.
Thank you for checking it out.
Dang this thing is bigger than my cock
What a piece of history; well made and maintained. Glad to hear it was sold. Had to laugh knowing it was a trade-in, so someone is continuing with life on the open road! 👍
Thanks for checking out the rig.
what a great classic. great presentation as usual.
Thanks for checking us out. Patrick.
I'm glad ray romano has found something to keep himself busy with
Ha ha ha
Patrick, thank you for that highly informative video and a glimpse into the past. This vehicle is American craftsmanship at its finest. It is amazing how much detail they put into that motorhome’s construction, and how you meticulously pointed out all those features. Thanks again!
Glad you enjoyed it
It's so neat to see how Airstream has taken on an evolutionary approach to their trailers and coaches. As apposed to what most of us are used to with an all new model every few years. I'm sure a few upgrades and light restoration will make that 30 year old RV look and feel like a brand new coach.
I believe the new owner did great things with the coach.
I love it too, thanks for the tour. Just dreaming!
Thank you for checking us out.
A carbureted 454 GM pulling that vehicle. Outa' the past. 6 to 8 MPG. What a treat.
Yes, 6-8 mpg is a bit low in todays standards.
Although this is 5 yrs old i still in love with this video because it’s my most favorite type of motor home from back in the day. Airstreams are perfectly built.
Thanks Ramona.
I worked in a couple RV dealers for a few years and actually went to the Airstream school in Jackson Center, Ohio and to the Argosy plant too. I was a certified Airstream repairman.
That was forty years ago and I never saw one of these. I worked on many different makes of trailers and we did have some Argosy motorhomes, I don't think they were doing Airstream motorhomes in 1975 and 1976 and why I didn't see one. The dealer I worked for was the largest in the Chicago area so....................
Their reputation was deserved and even then, every now and then one would come in for repair that had been lived in and you can tell the difference.
Thank you for watching.
I love it!! Great detail in your video. That beast is amazing
Thank you very much Billy.
I love that thing. Had commented before seeing all the inside. I’d live in it. Love the blender system! Separate bath and sink. I wonder how much it was in the day. 2 of my studios after downsized had nothing. Shared bath and kitchen. First 10 x 15 , 2nd 9x11 . Everthing in past better made. I have 9 vintage sewing machines and now teach. Those vintage is from 1919 to 1960s but beautiful and work! And i can fix myself! Love seeing the retro RVs. I also share slides. We had a fifth wheel and slide broke twice. Thanks for detailed video.
You are welcome.
Thanks for the tour. I'm in love with the Airstream!
Us too!
Lucky new owner and happy traveling
Thank you for watching.
nice video and great presentation, what an awesome RV to see, thanks for the complete guided tour.
Thank you very much.
These Airstreams are so amazing. In my opinion they are totally undervalued. Timeless design.
You got that right.
Beautiful and nicer than new ones. It has charm and looks like a real house inside.
Thank you.
Airstream, Travco, & GMC were the best of the era...
I agree. GMC's were unique with the front wheel drive and rear air suspension. Heck, the whole thing was kinda unique.
olikat8 Ya buddy,the G M C's are rare and extremely expensive today, Travco or originally called a Dodge were nice for their day,just didn't like the solid axel up front,was always bad enough having the rear duals giving you a jolt. The early Argosy's were a test bed for the Airstrem and both early ones had a terrible ride do to being too light, what they called station one was about middle and would shake the rivetets out,we actually had to retrfit cables to tie the roof to the floor,after they went with iirspring rear suspension the rode much better,never buy a 1980 with the Isusu diesel engine, no turbo ran like a turtle, I cosidered them to be a deathtrap and you had to stand on the gas pedal to go 55,it actually wore out your foot,81 they put a turbo on and it was close to the 454. Revcon was a great coach also sharing the olds front wheel drive like the G M C. Then you had west coast coaches like Bear and Monaco, I drove a 40 ft Crown Royal back from Oregon to Ohio,rode soooo nice you could fall asleep,all air ride and air seat,built solid with heavy fiberglass wall panels and awesome interiors. Bluebird Wonderlodge was the premium coach of the day though,hell I've worked on and drove about everthing built back then and the newer ones really aren't that much different,the introduction of the slide out is about the only difference. . 😊😊😊

you can say that again
add Revcon, grandson of Airstream
Very cool to see this thing man, The blender thing blew my mind, great review.
Thanks for checking us out Peter.
Mine too. I could visualize Jane Jetson making smoothies for George, Elroy, etc.
My house originally came with one of those. Exact model. Was neat. Unfortunately the main drive gear ended up stripping and then it became an eyesore as it was apart of the cabinet.
This genuinely looks so much better than anything on the market right now. That covered spice rack is so nice.
Okay the entire shower and toilet area still using the same carpet as the rest of the RV is pretty bad. But you can fix that with a bit of elbow grease.
It was a good find back then
Thanx for the walk around, and walk thru Patrick. Very cool to see the old gal. She’s beautiful in her own way. Thanx.
Thanks for watching.
Beautiful. I remember seeing these on the road during camping trips as a small kid. Don’t think I could own one, I’m still a traditional camper but I still love the technology evolution of it.
Thanks Roman.
Wow. This was great to see how this unit has held up. Ahead of it's time by a long shot. Looks great. Clean her up and she's ready. Excellent craftsmanship. I wonder how much she sold for.
Thank you very much for watching.
Patrick thanks for the trip down memory lane... That is a very cool RV
Thank you very much.
I like your genuine love admiration and appreciation of the product you sell (be it past or present). I would have no problem traveling back to NJ from the South to buy from a knowledgeable dealer like yours! Keep up the good work!
Thank you very much. I would love to work with you when you are ready to purchase.
the old styles are the best, there's so much space here
Love the Airstream Classic motor Home.
Patrick, nice job as usual! After viewing the ‘73 - ‘78 GMC Motorhomes, that Airstream borrowed quite a few of their concepts from them, e.g. front and rear panoramic windows, awning, dual tires with independent suspension, sans the axles (the GMC had an inflatable air suspension, not sure if Airstream had it or not), interior screen door, folding table that folds and stowed away, etc...
Two great vintage coaches.
This was a great tour, Ray Romano. There are alot of beautiful Airstreams on this lot.
Glad you enjoyed it. Ha ha ha
12::11 - I absolutely love that steering wheel. They made it like an airplane steering wheel and the dash looks like a cockpit with the round dials of vintage aircraft. So lovely! This is an excellent tour, Patrick. Worthy of this regal motorhome. Nothing comes close to an Airstream that was built like Apple computers and iphones today. If only it were shorter for today's travel-ability.
16:30 - In case anyone feels the need to have instant hot water for beverages, please don't. Keeping water in a heated state, depletes the oxygen in it and damages the water quality you take in. Heat it the old fashioned way on a stove and never let it overboil.
19:00 - Actually, the original Dometic fridges from that era had black glassy panels with a gorgeous vintage steel handle. I love that look. Too bad they changed the look on this fridge. The handle was sublime. It is very easy to change the front panels of these fridges - two screws in the top frame of door and the thin panel slides out. Mine was vinyl covered in a wood look which was super ugly like this one. I flipped it around and got real luan plywood on back side 1/8" thick. I finely sanded it, oiled, and polyurethaned (heavily diluted) so it looks like a hand rubbed finish. Now it is beautiful real wood paneling. You can also paint it white or any color, or use blackboard paint, or stick dry erase paper, or steel panel. I would advise against anything too glossy including very polished metal as it will give off a glare.
22:03 - If you look at the cabinet handles you can tell the era easily. The 1980s all had the brass with wood insert type handles. Today in the 2020's we like the modern long steel cylinder with the two feet, no brass, all stainless steel. The handles, steering wheel, black fridge, and globe lights on mirrors are so 1980's! Just lovely. You can redo those handles by stripping, sanding wood, polishing the brass, then oiling the wood and polyurethane over everything. This seals up the wood and prevents tarnish on shiny brass. You can also oxidize the brass if you want a somber look. The solid oak cabinets are such good quality - no vinyl woodgrain paper on MDF like today.
Lovely tour, thanks Patrick!
Appreciate the feedback and information.
One of the best tours I’ve heard, no um’s or err’s at all, congratulations you are very rare.
Well, not many anyway.
Wow, thank you!

Your welcome.
Its extremely rare to hear a good speaker these days, too often we hear people saying things like: cool.
l mean.
err.
Umm.
And all the rest of the parrot speak.
But you are different , you have not gone this way, your brain has the ability to process the things you want to say without having to search for the words.
You don't hesitate, you use words that are common and not trying to impress the listener with your knowledge of the dictionary.
Your attention to detail is good the viewer has their questions answered without having to ask them.
I therefore appoint you the position of Grand Master of You Tube presentation.
You could have a great future in the field of gum flapping.
FYI
I had five years education, l mostly educated myself and enjoy hearing a good speaker.
Thank you.
One way to tell approximate milage is by the condition of the gas and brake petals. As told to me by an junkyard man when odometers only had 6 numbers.
Thanks for the tip.
What's a petal ??? Brake and gas pedals can easily be replaced, odometer turned back etc.
John Gull Bunny lol this isn't Mathilda where your mean father puts sawdust in gearboxes and turns back the odo xD
a simple misspelling. arent we entitled a simple mistake once in awhile? lol. its all good tho. yes pedals can be replaced with ease. Hell you can buy the rubber pads at most places.
On an Airstream you just check the kitchen and bathroom for wear and tear. That's where all the use takes place. Restored quite a few airstreams and two 345's,
Thanks for showing this unit I've always wanted to see one. It was in great shape and has great build design
Thanks for watching.
Nice tour..
Unbelievable storage space and real comfortable furniture not a wood bench with a piece of foam on it. Real quality build.
Glad you enjoyed it.
This is nice, really nice. I like how the bathroom is separate from the shower. Plus with it being older you know it was well made. Unlike how stuff is just thrown together today. Then they wanna charge you a small fortune for junk.
Thanks for checking this one out.
when growing up we went camping almost all weekends during warm weather, and during vacations. also, we often went with my cousins in their camper. we met many people with motor homes along the way, and i have always absolutely loved airstreams. as an adult, if i could have afforded something like to vacation in, believe me - it would gave been at tge top of my list!
Thank you for checking us out.
Randomly seeing this 7 years later. Definitely been watching a lot of similar stuff lately
Sweet
I hope you are still selling these with your knowledge it is nice to see this. I know this is an old video but that is an awesome bus. The engine will last a very long time. Everybody loves Ray and this rig. Excellent calm presentation of the beautiful aluminum can that even someone that is not an airstream person can enjoy.
Thank you for watching.
Beautiful. A condo on wheels. My dream vehicle
Thank you for checking us out.
That Airstream Bus is awesome! I’m now officially obsessed with it! 😊😊😊
Thank you for watching.
I can already imagine the modifications I would do and add to get it up to date and livable.
Nice project.
IMHO, this is what an Airstream motorhome should look like, streamlined, aerodynamic, attractive, perfect size, between 25' and 35'. Most motorhomes I've seen look like bricks on wheels, with almost no shape whatsoever.
Thank you for checking us out.
You're welcome. Sadly, even Airstream has gone that way as well. Except for their trailers, their class A motorhomes look like most motorhomes.
Yep love these motorhomes (and I can't even drive nor do I come from the US we don't really have Airstream's here in Scotland, well we probably do but I'm not aware of anybody who has one).
I think Holiday Rambler did a great job in the late 89s/very early 90s as far as the roundy bullet shape, a little better than Airstream in some places, just my opinion though, still a great company.
I regret that I've never owned or driven a Motorhome.
Jason Carpp v
Dude sounds exactly like Ray Romano
Maybe this dude is?
jakeybehr ah hahaha
jakeybehr , I thought the same thing 😂
looks like he could be related when hes in the mirror hes a dead ringer for a young ray!!!
i was thinking the exact same thing and i thought lets look in the comments if someone says the same and here you are :))
I know nothing about RVs, but I am impressed at the build quality and materials, and how it has held up for 30 years. Looks like you could drive away and use it as, or even be worth investing small money into modernizing a little. I hope it went to a good family who used it and took care of it. I just bought a camper trailer this year. I was so unimpressed with the build quality for the money I spent.
Glad you enjoyed the video.
Beautiful classic motor home, the aluminum body still looks almost perfect.
I think so too!
Omg. I wold love to have one of those.
I would too.
Everybody loves...Airstream
Ha ha . We sure do.
Hah!
Witty!
Lol
I don't... Smelly leaky shite.
I lived in an airstream for about 10 months thru winter in Michigan. Very toasty!! Love these older airstream!
Good share.
Thanks for the detailed tour. I also love seeing stuff in real condition. We all have our imperfections.
I love it too
So nice! your best video yet Patrick!
Thanks for checking it out.
Interiour tour starts at 9:10 ...
Thanks for the bookmark.
thx
Thank you. And even then he pans the important things and shows us the bloody handles and fixtures mostly.
You are a saint. Awesome RV! :)
MVP!!! MVP!!! MVP!!!
The interior layout reminded me of our 1972 GMC motor home, just not as stretched or with the luxury touches, also the sturdy 454 which gets up, at least in the 24 ft version. Very comfortable and enjoyable traveling.
Thank you for checking this out.
Just a beautiful piece of travel trailer. The best motor homes ever built. Great video 👍
Thank you! 👍
This is like the Flash Gordon of RV's. They seemed so state of the art in those days.
Pretty cool rig, thanks.
The real freedom and joy in life travel and enjoy our beautiful America.no stress live longer.
these and the Revcon were the best of the best....and the new purchase prices sure reflected it...my 28' Revcon was just at $100,000.00 new....in 1984
Oh my gosh, I have the same Panasonic DVD/VHS player! Bought it for $350.09 in 2001---still have it, works great.
I had one similar too.
This has to be the nicest camper I've ever seen the inside of!
Love it❤ So much nicer, and much higher quality! Love the wood and all of the great storage!! What a treasure. Wonder if it only had 1 owner,...
Thanks very much.
👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it.
I saw one of these yesterday on I35 san antonio north bound still kicking ass and taking names! Beautiful sight on the interstate!
Nice
Fascinating & beautiful work. This looks like something my Dad would have loved. Mom, not so much! Unfortunately, Dad had a stroke & couldn't handle this after.
So lovely to see real wood.... Well cared for. It could be a great deal for the right buyer... NOT a minimalist!
Thanks for watching Jenn.
Sad, when Vintage is 1987 and I graduated high school in 1983.
Yeah its crazy.
Zig says he graduated 1971 wtf pre antique???
Dam you are old as shit lol 😂
@@1BigDaDo ur time will come if you make it that far 😂
87’ here. Damn.
This RV has nothing to envy to the current ones. It has a modern interior equipment and what to say about the master bedroom: luxury. So cute. Handsome.
Glad you enjoyed it.
I love the details you notice and pick out. 👍
Thank you Sam.
