The perfect hybrid of form and function.

Our goal is simple… To build the best vintage Airstreams possible, in the spirit of Wally Byam. Rooted in aircraft and yacht design, utilizing time honored techniques to produce the best-looking, most functional and longest enduring aluminum clad vessels on the road.

You’re here because you find more excitement in rescuing the beautiful slice of Americana abandoned in a field with weeds growing out of it than in what the dealership is offering brand new down the street. It’s not just the nostalgia of what came before; some things truly were better back then. We don’t love vintage, early 60s and older Airstreams just because we think they look better. We love them because we think they were built better too.

In fact we’re so enamored with these early Airstream fuselages that we named ourselves after how we find them, Patina. As such, you could almost say we revere the condition they’ve been shaped into over 60+ years of serving as America’s most iconic travel trailer. You won’t find us erasing their beautiful story with a clumsy polish job.

That being said, we do love a good restomod. We’re stoked on loading these unassuming old birds up with the absolute latest and greatest technologies and amenities, from smart lithium systems to cutting edge accessories. But… tastefully. We don’t put your switches, dials, and gauges in your face at every turn like the manufacturer does. We tuck them away, out of sight but still intuitively within reach. So your focus is on enjoying your stay in our old-world inspired, timeless interior spaces. Right where it should be.

Welcome to Patina.
