Description
Suzie Q, Original Vintage Airstream. Barn find then stored in our shop all year round. This is a personal trailer and was a promotional vehicle for our company ESK Productions. This is a rare model with no bathroom, featuring ample closet space instead. The exterior is in great condition and has been professionally polished, but does have some character-building bumps and bruises. She is award winning when freshly polished. The interior has been soda-blasted by previous owner to remove paint, leaving behind a beautiful, rustic metal aesthetic. It features original gas stove and fridge, cool vintage lighting, and custom-made twin boxspring and mattresses (not foam) with dated 1950s tags. The only thing not original inside is the flooring; the subfloor looked amazing while the original flooring was removed. We had the original awning remade with vintage-inspired exterior fabric. This can be continued as the exterior shell has snaps for attaching awning side walls to create an outer "tented" room.
Our intention for this trailer was to restore everything 100% to its former glory. We hoped it would go in a museum to be admired by all or sold to a collector. It's an impressive piece of history and deserves to be treated as such. Running a restoration business left us too little time to finish the work as a personal project, so she needs a new home. We're open to doing restoration work with the buyer if that's of interest to you.
