From the Owner: "Our vintage trailer specialists rebuilt this rare early model Avion from the frame up. The mirror-polished aircraft-grade aluminum shell sits on a completely rebuilt frame and running gear, from brand-new axles to the upgraded tongue hitch. The custom birch cabinetry is true to the original midcentury style and layout. The cabin features a double bed, as well as a front dinette that coverts to a second bed, sleeping up to four comfortably. The spacious bathroom contains a shower, vanity, and composting toilet. Built with off-grid camping in mind, the Holiday includes foldable solar panels, a battery bank, freshwater storage on board, a gas range, hot showers, and a furnace for cold-weather camping."

Dating back to 1960, the remodeled trailer—known as Holiday—is a rare, early Avion model.
