2015 Shasta Airflyte 1961 Re-Release | Retro RV | Vintage

[@archaicamusement3871]

The car and the trailer are amazing

[@agems56]

I am amazed at the size of todays monstrosities, motorhomes and huge fifth wheels, when this was enough for normal campers even with larger families!

[@adamflyshotmail]

I talked to Corey today. Shasta is not willing to make any custom units. But we have put a deposit down on a yellow one today. My CFO(My Wife) has OK'd the purchase. This is going to be our 25th wedding anniversary gift. Ace in PA.

[@treylennon4858]

Absolutely love these re-releases! More companies need to do this!

[@debraball2641]

I would love it if Shasta would do another vintage re-issue. I love this, but so do the people who bought them! I love the vintage look coupled with modern plumbing!

[@maryjaneniles443]

Gorgeous! Reminds me of one my family had - my mother would have loved a "new" one!

[@ocdorenes9568]

I’m in love with this trailer!! When I was a kid in the 79’s we had a wilderness trailer and spent many summers camping in the mountains!!!

[@fireice4833]

This Shasta Camper is a automatic “ WOW “ 👏🏼👏🏼🔥🔥🔥Love it

[@ddaymen11]

I'm so glad people are making these retro trailers. When my father died out in California in 2001 I had to go out there from Texas to take care of some stuff and he had an original Shasta trailer just like this in the backyard. I would have loved to a brought it back to Texas but I think it had the original tires as they were petrified other than that it was in remarkably excellent shape I just had no way to bring it back too bad!

[@charliehorsenm3446]

Absolutely AWESOME job! When I was a kid, I rode in my Uncle's Ford Ranchero towing one of these from Colorado Springs to Haines, Alaska - and back. A trip I'll NEVER forget. Over 1000 miles of gravel road in those days between Dawson Creek and Haines Junction. I LOVE how carefully you have designed and upgraded this wonderful old trailer. And in this day and age the #A1++ feature that I LOVE is WINDOWS!! Windows that actually OPEN! What a concept in this day and age of what my wife and I call "windowless wonders". We currently have and keep in shape a 1985 Wilderness that we love. It looks years newer than it actually is - inside and out. I've been told that it is no longer possible to provide actual Jalousie type opening windows with the current NHTSA code standards. You have obviously put the LIE to that excuse for not providing real windows! You are to be complemented a thousand times over. If I were in the market for a new trailer I would take one of these any day of the week and twice on Sunday in preference to most all of what's out there today!

[@michaelbenardo5695]

Wow! What a sweet little trailer, and look at the 60 Cadillac Convertible! Both beautiful!

[@adelesandry]

My husband & I have an original 1959 Shasta, in seafoam green. The beautiful woodwork makes it feel like a cozy little cabin. People either think it's really cool & want to check it all out, or they don't get it at all & want to know why we don't remove the 'wings'. Some folks will never understand! The reissue is great, nice job. Gotta admit I wanted to see a little princess oven in there though.

[@the_eerie_faerie_tales]

What they're crazy, the wings are classic! What an adorable and functional trailer, love it! It must be so fun to camp with.

[@irmagherd9088]

I've got a 68 Shasta... I love my Wings!

[@michaelbenardo5695]

They don't appreciate the era of fins, bright happy colors, and the spirit of adventure.

[@jennhill8708]

That is too sweet! I'd need more room, but I love what you've done. Awesome car, too. You'll be turning heads driving down Route 66!

[@techmaniac43]

Dude im in love with the 60s and 40s style. Good video!. thanks for uploading it

[@vickinoeske1711]

It's awesome. The Caddy is beautiful.

[@josephatnip2398]

I just seen one last weekend at Wappapello Missouri at the State Park..... so I had to look them up

[@cameroncook3863]

Very Cool!! Great job Shasta. Love the retro styling and staying true to orig 61 design with the modern goodies. Thumbs up!

[@betsyandjoy]

So so cool! We've been restoring (really rebuilding) a 1965 Shasta for the last 4 years - we are so excited to finally take it out.

[@-OPPORTUNITYBARN-]

[@tritchie6272]

I like the concept of an old time look with modern convenience!

[@antonioginez5994]

Nicely done. It looks very cozy and homey. The bathroom with flushing toilet is cool and I like it. Everything inside is beautiful. That man is doing a great job. Well detailed and informative. I enjoy watching this video and thank you for sharing it with us. God bless and stay healthy.

[@agustasister5624]

So far i like this one better than any new one ive seen..AND IF COURSE THE AIR CONDITIONER...LOL

[@aljr357]

I’d love to get one of these. It’s great to see some style coming back to travel trailers. The trailer I really want is from the 30s I think and if I can ever find one I’ll definitely bring it back to original condition. One of these though will be a great substitute until I can find an original model that I can’t even remember the manufacturer name at the moment but I have a video on the history of Rv and travel trailers that shows it .

[@the_eerie_faerie_tales]

This is my favorite little camper trailer I've seen so far! Perfect layout and such a cute design. I would love the turquoise one. Only thing is, I'd switch out the microwave for a 4way toaster oven. Maybe even add a small flip-up table to the side of the kitchen counter (additional prep space or could be used as an "office" for the couch.) Other than that... If I had the money I'd buy it right now!! Also, loved the tour.. he made me LOL a few times!

[@SpiritBear12]

That repro trailer looked a lot more roomy than many of today's trailers of about the same size with a better lay out. I think my only real kvetch is where the window is in the bathroom. I would have mounted it much higher up on the wall for better privacy. I personally would go with a smaller dinette and extend the counter just a little bit more and widen the sink some. I like the idea of the jealousy glass windows. You can have some ventilation even if it rains. I love to leave the windows open during a nice little rain storm. Because the glass slats slant open, rain wont easily come in. I wish I had that feature on my apartment windows. I hope you make some more again.

[@SpiritBear12]

+Connie Mancilla 8?

[@joycepeters8570]

wow I just saw this for the first time and omg this is so awesome.I hope all that got one will enjoy.

[@ccolanutz]

Awesome way to recreate the past yet modern .Very nice touches.

[@robertgraham6588]

It's nice to see a president that knows his product !

[@Van-..-z._-_z.-._-._.-z.]

You have an awesome voice. I would buy all your rv's and listen contently, for hours. Especially if you had a radio station and i had a million dollars

[@aaabackflowtestingserv.7259]

After the Monroe, WA. RV show yesterday I said to my husband, "why doesn't Shasta just make a retro trailer since the small ones are so popular", to our utter surprise we googled you and BEHOLD our dream has come true! The only thing we wish for is the sofa in the back to pull out to a bed for two adults? wasn't sure if that does that? Let us know and we are on it!!! WASHINGTON needs a sea foam green Shasta running behind our family!! AWESOME JOB!!! I like the I- pad plug in idea for the magazine racks too since that is our source for everything read and looked up. Good idea from someone below! I ditto the thought. Thank you!!

[@josephinetyree1476]

BEAUTIFULLY done....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@NathanSeneca]

Excellent . . this guy seemed like he really knew what he was selling.

[@couerl]

It just occurred to me that today's "magazine's" are actually tablets, ipads, cell phones etc,... it would be too cool if the magazine rack had a couple of charging ports in it or USB docks with a few unique apps to monitor and manage the unit like temperature, tanks, tv, music and whatever else. That would make for some very cool mods. can't get over how much I like this unit and I'd get mine in yellow and tow it with our yellow jeep..

[@tomslick1650]

yellow jeep? no way man, ya gotta tow it with somethin with tail fins!

[@antonioginez5994]

Beautiful and very cozy inside. Thumbs up.

[@keithdebbymabis4131]

I just saw one of these going down the road. had to do some research and found this. Looks great!!!

[@rustywells3310]

My Grandpa & Grandma Had One Just Like This One it Green & White Back Early 70s And Then Sold it Other People And True Classic Camps

[@ASHEVILLEMOVINGCOMPANY]

We love the Shasta camper thanks for doing the video great job

[@starrlara2012]

My dream home away from home!!!

[@rhiggi]

This is really amazing. You guys did a top notch job with this concept.

[@stevenmbell]

An Absolute Dream Trailer.Sir you and your designers simply out did yourselves.You have created a work of art.I only wish I could afford to buy one.Thank you for sharing your Trailer.All my best. Steven M Bell

[@jasoncarpp7742]

Sweet looking Shasta travel trailer. If you're going to reissue a classic look and feel of a classic travel trailer, this is the way to do it. While at the same time upgrading certain things to make it safer and more up-to-date for today's traffic. When it comes to travel trailers, I believe that form follows function. We all want something that's attractive to look at, I know I do. But I also believe that nothing should be installed unless there's a functional purpose to it. Good work! :)

[@RobinsRehab]

I just bought a 1961 Shasta 16 SCS. in pretty good shape. I brought it home and Parked it in my friends yard... and 2 weeks later some Drunk drives up into the yard.... AFTER hitting a light-pole and crashed into the side of it. Bent the axle and did some sheet metal damage to it, all fixable... but JEEZE! Damn thing went almost 50 YEARS without an accident... and some schmuck has to drive into the Yard to hit it! Now, Im debating on selling it or fixing it. Ive never restored a Travel Trailer before. and I was going to use it to buy some land up in the Smoky Mtns and live in it till I got a house built. Im sure I wont have any problem selling it. This model is pretty rare and sought after. No way I could afford a 2015 Retro.

[@lisashaw3883]

These units are awesome! I've seen several red & a few yellow leaving the shipping yards in Goshen! What a great idea, too bad production is limited!

[@Malakie]

talk about memories! My mom and dad had one of these and almost every weekend possible we took it up to Lake Wisconsin and camped in it.. That thing got more use than you can imagine.. I can remember rain storms while in it.. breakfast meals... wow .. I would love to own one just to have it.. But the wife says no since we just got a 32 foot, 1998 Four winds Windsport RV.... I tried to convince her even so... but alas she won't budge.. LOL... BTW, if you want a real nice RV, we got this one by doing a LOT of searching.. Bought it from a dealer, obviously used, for $5500! Only problem found is the genset carb is bad so that has to be fixed.. Everything else though works great... including the wasp nest I found! :-)

[@fishlanding]

How cool and awesome is this !

[@Rinny1976]

I just seen one on Friday looked good.

[@lanceweekley5148]

Omg. That is so cool and obviously well thought out. Good luck to you.

[@daniellack3559]

To heck with the trailer...you should be selling those gorgeous 60 Caddys! LOL

[@br33zin]

Ours is ordered!!! Now the wait!

[@jonathanbrown1385]

Nice presentation! Love the retro look!

[@manhattanmama4192]

Love anything and everything retro. This is adorable! But for me I would need maybe another 16' in length at least, a bigger bathroom, washer/dryer, flat screen, wardrobe, oh hell it's still cute!

[@RattledRivets]

A Tupperware party on wheels. I am going to buy this trailer, "re-release" myself as Brownie Wise, and hit the road!

[@jeffrice2852]

This is very cool. I would love to get one

[@bacharfarmsrental7758]

just beautiful! One day.....

[@chinabluewho]

I have often thought that the best camper made in the 60's 70's was the 10' Shasta compact, maybe with updated material and a small bath shower built into it , it would be the best of the 20's?

[@TraderRoss]

I love these old design campers even though they were before my time.

[@lcapplewood]

I need to come to Indiana and see this awesome trailer! (If any left!)

[@bernicerobichaud9400]

Gorgeous!

[@germanwolf34]

WOW! These are AMAZING reproductions! You really did a nice job! Wish I could afford a 16.

[@joeguzman3558]

For an older couple or single person that wants to save money living in this beutiful or anybody its new but it has class

[@brodybailey8094]

a 60s style fridge would would fit way better in their but other than that it looks pretty awesome.

[@LCx829]

Very nice. love vintage style.

[@Wrguitar941]

ha i just ordered the 1/25 scale 1961 diecast this is cool to see love the diecast same color

[@agems56]

Sorry I asked a question which you eventually answered at the end, Thank You!

[@cherylroumillat3660]

Beautiful Blessing..⚘🎚🍑⭐

[@SpiritBear12]

You were about to go for a drive with the trailer? You better put those leveling jacks back up then. I saw that mistake. LOL How well is it insulated? What is it insulated with?

[@joeytwosubs]

I have to have one. No kidding I have to have one!

[@sicchuckie]

Bravo, rain gutter over door and a folding canopy over front window.

[@TheRealThomasPaine1776]

Yowza! I sooo remember these! I thought I wanted a little airstream but this is actually more of what I remembered. Except that lamp above the dinette needs to be propane! You need to hear that noise when you're playing cards late at night with the crickets, and the papers. You know that noise that a propane lamp makes... Wooooossshhhhh.. Nice and low, but constant, thrumming and burning like a small sun, luring the moths to their death and me to a drowsy, slow nap in the corner of the dinette, too lazy to make up the bed. The last thing i remember before I fell asleep is wondering how cold the lake will be in the morning, and will She be there? Is it possible that she was serious about meeting just before Dawn? I don't know what I believed would really happen, but of course I wanted it to. I also knew it shouldn't, but I couldn't help myself. She was two whole years older than me, 17 if you can believe it! I was only in 10th grade, and to me she was a goddess. I knew that somewhere, in a part of my brain, that I was very curious to see what a goddess looked like rising naked from the water at sunrise and I was going to see thing through, even if I was scared out of mind and unable to fall asleep.

[@rickyburton4642]

That’s awesome 😎👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@conniepritchardreinhardt9978]

I wish they would reinvent a towlow camper! Now that was a camper! Add some new products. Like ac, flow vent. Hidden toilet, radio. And more! It's the metal frame on them that impressed me. I redid mine. It's the only one I have kept over the years!

[@emelen123jamesula2]

Do you make them longer with tandem wheels?

[@TheViolentTeddy]

BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@couerl]

I wish,... Really nice job guys, other vintage remakes look cheesy in comparison and this looks like a quality build.

[@BobJones-hf7bt]

Very clean, fit and finish is well executed. Very close to the origenal but improved can't see but a few changes over the origenal.

[@merceauxx2550]

Ooooooh I'm dying to see what the turquoise looks like :)

[@merceauxx2550]

thanks!

[@melodyyoung9293]

Very well done!

[@raeeliot6776]

yes i agree ] thanks for your comment ] 👏]

[@MrMedicinalPurpose]

"And probably about 30 lbs overweight" nice self burn man. Great job on the trailer!

[@elizabeth-tl9pv]

I could easly live there.forget camping!! This is the 1st comphy camper ive deen..others to fancy...

[@ddaymen11]

it would be so cool to somehow incorporate Neon Lights of some kind in the wings

[@rogerford6567]

Very nice!!!!!!!!!

[@slofiz5336]

this is the lucy and ricky travel rv. i love lucy lol

[@slofiz5336]

would love if it had duel axiels

[@MrMeanderthal]

if I bought one of these I'd prefer to have the original propane light.. I find them to be the perfect heater for most of the year where I live... most propane heaters I've used are too hot to keep running.. the lamps are perfect to knock the chill away without over heating.. back in the 80's I had an 18 foot trailer,, there was a propane lamp in the front above the table and one in the back above the bed.. I used them for heat until we got the few weeks where temp went below freezing.. then they weren't quite warm enough..

[@kennyc388]

Nice job.....a dude that knows what the hell he is talking about.

[@davidcollins7050]

Are the parts on this camper available to buy to install on my 1961 model?

[@joeguzman3558]

What a beutiful rv vintage looking but new better then restorations

[@user1936]

Can I get the vents painted body color, mainly the ones below the belt line or get the paint code to get it painted. The trailer is a GREAT and true re issue, but the white vents really distract the view from the left side on the red one. Is there a walk though on the 19 yet?

[@MrRuff-cc3lg]

Love it!!!

[@quirkyquips9915]

As a native Floridian, jalousie windows were in my grandpa's house, most relative's homes. I noticed a comment saying it's pronounced with a zhao..since when? I thought. Maybe my modest southern folks didn't know better so had to check. Jal-o-see. Where this gentleman is from, may say it like jealousy. When someone needs to do an American accent, just like the Brits, you have to ask from what area! Jalousie is the French word for jealousy. It originated in 18th century France from the Italian word geloso, which means jealous, or screen, as in to screen something from view. Supposedly because of their slatted louvres, jalousie windows protect the interior of the house from jealous peering eyes. And rain pretty much. Happy 2020 all! New resolutions? Don't judge a book by its cover, ban ageism and know if you choose to serve God, it is pleasing to God no matter what day it is, the way you choose, no matter your clothing and you, as a mere human, can judge harshly, know that God will judge you in the same way. Peace be with you. 🍃🕊🍃

[@Masterchief68a]

Very nice!

Beautiful

So, I'm in the UK and a company over here has imported a few of these for sale. I spotted it on ebay. Been on for awhile. Down from just under 19 thousand pounds to just under 16 thousand. I love the American retro look with the modern conveniences. Really interested to see this because of my interest in the one for sale over here. Pics aren't really enough. I think the reason it hasn't sold so far is the same reason alot of American caravans (trailers) don't is that if there is a problem, who and how can it be resolved? What about spares etc? Warranty? It's a bloody shame because I'd love one of these. I camp alot. Off grid mostly, so I get alot out of owning one. Also, and lastly, the UK has different mains voltage, sockets, 12v electrics, and towing specifications so it's not practical to import one myself. I see alot of American caravans that look amazing but US manufacturers won't make them here or sell them. Damn shame if you ask me. A missed opportunity. Oh well! ☹

[@ericmusick7988]

Great video of a lovely trailer. One thing I would have liked to see was the sleeping arrangement. We're a family of 4 and I'm 6'1". That would be my main concern.

[@duracontractors]

Did you watch the video? He showed the sleeping arrangement... maybe you slept through that part...lol

[@ArtBabbitt]

Any idea what the awning will look like? Will it be vinyl or canvas like the original? Also curious what fabric Shasta will use for the curtains.

[@805gregg]

The origional 16' didn't have a head, I know as a member of a family of 5 that took one from LA to the Seattle Worlds Fair in 1962

[@lass-inangeles7564]

Wow, this is gorgeous! The vintage car seals the deal and the show!!! So deliciously retro. You did a phenomenal job of recreating the Shasta. Truly incredible, very well done! Its tasteful, true to original, modernized, and so light, Real winner here. By the way... The windows are JALOUSIE not JEALOUSY. Jalousie windows have horizontal slats. The word Jalousie is French, which comes from the Italian word 'gelosia', which comes from Greco-Latin 'zelōsu'. This word in all languages means Jealousy. By looking out of these slats, you can see, but cannot be seen, as you would if you were jealous of someone and spying on them. So now that you know the word and its origins, please pronounce it correctly.

[@kennyc388]

My 47 Chevy coupe would look nice pulling this beauty.

[@catmother1989]

Wow! Nice. 💙💙💙

[@therunawayscarclub7182]

Is it possible to get a finished shell with nothing inside (appliances, toilet cabinets etc.) we have been looking into older units to restore for a car club event hauler which would look great behind our '59 wagon.

[@barbibutton9619]

A place up the road from me has an old Shasta with those lil wing things for sale

[@tolerbearALTII]

What about the moon dome hub caps? Plus round off the counter top on the table side. That looks uncomfortable. This camper is really nice though! Definitely retro! What about the overhead bed?

[@stevequirkcarolynbeach5602]

Will the LED light (original gas light between the front cabinets) be for sale as an accessory item? I have 1969 Terry that has that gas light but missing parts. Would love to replace with a LED.
