1978 Airstream Excella 500 30'

Looking to sell by the end of this month to the best offer

We rebuilt, travelled, and lived in this trailer for a year. After our travels, we used it as a summer cabin for three seasons. Towed home and stored in our back driveway in the winters. Well cared for and functional, tows well. We just purchased a mountain house and no longer need the camper.

Rehab history: photos available upon request

  • gutted in 2019: floors and frame good
  • upgraded inverter/battery system
  • upgraded propane tanks to modern valves
  • new overflow / vent hose amp; waterfill and hose
  • new pex plumbing throughout
  • replaced forced air heat system with catalytic heater
  • new Dometic fridge/freezer and stove/oven
  • LED lighting
  • AC runs cold
  • original propane water heater and pump fully functional
  • vintage character preserved including original curtains, radio upgraded to bluetooth, doorbell

Issues to note:

  • drivers side awning missing a latch, but otherwise functional
  • passenger side awning has a torn seam that needs to be sewn
  • drawer latches were removed when using as a stationary cabin. Should be replaced if using for regular towing
  • two missing window locks within although each window has at least one functioning lock
  • battery has a slow drain, so I just flip the breaker when not in use
  • exterior: has never been polished or painted, so generally aged with patches of clearcoat. Alclad exterior can be polished to shine
