    It’s found an owner who truly values and appreciates its character and history. ✌️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    That is an amazing Airstream! I like how he has kept many of the original features and done some very good updates too. Fabulous!

    The travel trailer equivalent of Cary Grant. In a tuxedo. Drinking a martini.

    Nice. I like that it does not require a massive rig to tow. You can pretty much tow it with anything. Just drive appropriate to the parameters of the vehicle you have, and away you go.

    That Cadillac would cut a mighty fine attitude towing that big trailer

    Very, very nice. Great mods, tastefully executed. Once you get over 30 feet trailers start having really nice amenities and a good interior flow. But now people demand slideouts, weight be damned and Airstream (or their customers) never really embraced them; probably because of appreciation for light weight.

    Nice video! We just bought a 1970 31’ Sovereign. Q:How do I light the original propane refrigerator?

      Denny has since sold that Airstream but if I recall there was a small door / hatch on the right (drivers side ) with a knob and pilot light. Thanks for watching and commenting !

    That is so COOL! I am so surprised that you can tow that with a half-ton pickup. What is the tongue weight of the Airstream?

    • @thecarsofpalmsprings
      @thecarsofpalmsprings  3 роки тому

      Thanks for Watching ! The hitch weight is 490 lbs, Denny actually towed it with a Cadillac sedan for a while ( see 2 minutes 48 seconds in the video )

    What’s up with that pointer?

    • @thecarsofpalmsprings
      @thecarsofpalmsprings  2 роки тому +2

      It started with our first episode 1960 Chrysler New Yorker which was a bit more on the goofy whacky side but friends and watchers loved the cartoon hand pointer during tech spec segments. Thanks for watching and commenting!

      Not on this example but it could actually be fitted with awnings over every window as well as a large patio cover. Thanks for watching ! 😊
