HIT THE ROAD in a 1963 Airstream Bambi


Originally from New Brighton, Minnesota and registered on the 9th May 1963, this stunning vintage Bambi Airstream travel trailer is one of the finest examples in existence; the same 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 American motoring pieces. 
Meticulously restored to its original interior specification colour scheme of sea foam green with walnut cabinets and tan leather sofa, all to modern day safety standards, the Airstream Bambi strikes the perfect balance between authentic period style and contemporary functionality.
The Bambi's lightweight body built from original aircraft-grade metal makes it the ideal summer travel getaway, combining luxurious convenience with vintage nostalgia. The American tradition of camping was revolutionised with the introduction of trailers that enabled people to travel over long distance yet maintain home amenities. Airstreams also represent a great future investment for buyers as they gain in value every year.
Due to the labour-intensive nature of the restoration, only a couple of these luxurious, vintage Airstreams are completed each year.
