Hi Folks,
First time poster, long time reader. So I'm interested in a 66 Caravel AS trailer i found on ebay. 1965 Airstream Caravel 16ft | eBay
I'm new to the sport and not sure what is a fair value for this beauty. This is a restoration project. Basically, the owner has gutted the trailer except for leaving some of the interior skins up, removed the kitchen and appliances, furniture, all that jazz. Has no major dents, or scratches. He is telling me no major leaks and don't see any water damage in any of the photos.
Here's why i'm interested: New axle installed, frame is in good shape, exterior skins in good shape as well. For the age looks like in good condition other than the restoration part. The owner has also saved all the hardware and curved parts for templating, which is brilliant and shows good forethought.
so what is the benchmark price for a 66 caravel 16' in this condition and how much would it cost to restore? (Minus the labor since i would be doing the work. ) Would like to tastefully restore, but not go crazy and have a pretty small budget couple k to work with.
I'm tempted not to bid too high, but also know this is a sought after model considering the length, weight, and year. Your thoughts? please discuss....
thanks for the help and insight! BH
