Vintage Seekers Launches Vintage Airstreams

June 17, 2011 - PRLog -- Vintage Seekers’ Airstream Bambi, the most famous 1960s model, has been lovingly restored by a specialist team. The rare walnut-finished frames and original fittings were painstakingly tracked down to ensure that it remains just as it was in its original heyday.


The 1963 Bambi is one of the finest examples of its kind in the UK; this same Airstream model is part of the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, underlining that Airstreams are works of art as much as classic motoring pieces. Celebrity Airstream owners include Johnny Depp, Tom Hanks and Cheryl Crow.


These extremely rare motoring icons are specially imported for Vintage Seekers from America. Due to the labour-intensive nature of their restoration and craftsmanship required, only a couple of these luxurious vintage Airstreams are completed each year.


Vintage Seekers’ also lists two further Airstreams that can be customised to order. The 1946 Sparton Manor, complete with portal windows, and 1950 Silver Streak Clipper (also called the ‘alien eyed’ Airstream) can be modified to fit the buyer’s bespoke specifications through Vintage Seekers’ ‘Seeker Service’.


Distinctive for their gleaming aerodynamic silver exteriors, Airstreams were manufactured from high-polished original aircraft-grade metal. They evoke the freedom of travel on the open road and the convenience and comfort of a home on wheels.


As well as being stylish lifestyle pieces perfect for summer travel or festivals, Airstreams represent a great future investment for buyers as they gain in value every year.
