Here's the Reader's Digest (short) version of a year-long quest to obtain a 1954 Airfloat about ten miles from where Larry of Mobiltec in 2011 surveyed/videotaped another Airfloat in Atascadero, California. Back in June 2020, I got a free 1950's Viking from the owner of a trailer park. Forty plus years ago he sold an abandoned 1954 Airfloat to a longtime friend for one dollar. It had been sitting in a barn for those forty years. The man is a hoarder and rarely parts with anything. Long story short, I became the proud owner of a 1954 Airfloat on July 31. Let the fun begin. Here's a video and a couple of photos. 1954 Airfloat VideoFind the Trailer Find the Trailer Part 2

Wow!
What do you know...the dream came true..." It had been sitting in a barn for those forty years."
Any photos of the inside?

What a shame they painted it, more work for you. Still, it's pretty cool.

At least the wallpaper is easy to remove.
