1981 Airstream Excella - ACT FAST !


Recommended Posts

Not mine. In Missoula, MT. I don't know how to import postings from Craigslist, but got to Seattle,   rvs+camp, enter Airstream Excella. 24 pics in posting.         Now look, if I still had my money,  you guys and gals would be envying my ownership of this thing the next time you see me. ASTONISHINGLY well kept, IMHO. And you know antique Airstream prices. This seems to be WAY under market for condition.  If you need help in Missoula, I might be able. It is just a days drive for me. Good luck.!    -  Carl

Thank you, Jeff. I called Mike, the owner. The Isuzu 6-BD-1 is the rare original power plant. Re-programed THM400. All receipts and minimum wear corroborate the indicated mileage as original. The whole thing is HPOF ready. Runs strong, pulls well, but of course is rather slow. Hey ! Are you old enough to remember the "Double Nickel" speed limit ? Just enjoy the scenery ! He is getting interest from all over the country on this one, as you might imagine. A lady from NH is first in line. She is putting it in the shop tomorrow, and understands that issues such as brakes are to be expected. It does stop OK, but there seems to be some dragging. Anyway, following the mechanics evaluation, she will, or will not get it. I (or YOU, if you want my place in line -very, VERY sadly I now no longer have the money I worked all my life for- would just LOVE to own and enjoy this veteran Airstream), am in the number three slot behind Lucky Lady, and a local guy.

 

If any of you are interested, shoot me a PM. I can give you more details, and how Mike came to own it. As you know, a little tinkering, the usual sorting, and just a relatively small sum of money, makes this about a 40 grand rig.    -   Carl
