Subject: [SilverStreak] 1977 silver streak for sale

We are selling our 1977 33 foot Continental Supreme Luxury Liner because we
just bought a large fifth wheel and this wonderful Streak needs a new home.

 Please email any inquires to me at dochk@xxxxxxxxxx.com

We have a lot of documentation and receipts for just about everything since
the trailer was originally purchased. We have had it for about 3 years. We
have clear title and yes, it is licensed. AND we have the manual and YES we
have the combination to the built in safe.

Not smoked in since we had it and it did not have a smoke smell when we got
it. There have been dogs in there....we travel with two small dogs.

It is in very good condition for its age. We have taken excellent care of it
and have no problems with towing it. This unit sold for over $40,000 when new.
We have pulled it all the way up to Idaho with no problems and on many shorter
trips. Trailer is located in New Mexico.

Has electric jack, wired for cable and phone, crank up TV antenna, hidden
floor safe, very large rear bathroom, stainless steel  sink in kitchen, custom
oak interior, super insulated, lots of storage, travel rock guard window
covers on the front windows, 6 scissor jacks for stability. Has twin beds (and
you can have the 2 sets of sheets and the quilts and the pillow shams).


NEW Since we bought it

Air conditioner ($800 installed) Carrier AirV with wave cooling and cold
concentrator setting (used two or three times since new)

Hi profile Thetford toilet

Single handle bathroom faucet

Almond sink in bathroom

Top of the line futon (memory foam)..full bed size..priced at almost $1000.
Southwestern type of heavy duty cover on it. This is in the front room under
the large window. The unit has extra long twin size beds.

Accumulator for water

On demand water pump

2 propane tanks with safety valves

By pass winterizing system

Thumb control hand held shower head

Bearings repacked

Bedspreads for twin beds ( you get all the sheets, pillowcases and the
bedspreads)

Extra heavy duty drag wheels (we had the plate they attach to professionally
welded on)

New in last 4-5 years:

Floor

Flooring ( all vinyl)

Curtains (silver gray custom made-need a few carriers sewn on and we will
provide the carriers)

Stainless steel water tank

Refrigerator

Water heater

Fresh air turbo vents

Deep Cycle dual batteries

Battery Boxes

TV antenna

Patio and window awnings-they are in excellent condition

Tires ( and there is a spare as well that I believe is brand new)

Protective tire covers

All the tow bars, stabilizer bars, etc. come with it.

Trailer is in very good condition.

Everything works except for:

1) the 8 track player may or may not work...we do not have any 8 tracks to
test it out

2) Water filtration system- we can not figure out how it works even with the
manual and we don't think the filters are available anymore

3 )Vacuum system works perfectly mechanically, but the hose is torn and
collection head died ( can not get bags for it anymore anyway) and the head
and hose would need to be replaced. We just use a little stick vac we keep in
the closet. Since the floors are all vinyl..this works great.  We will include
the vacuum for you.

4) There is one hairline crack on the Formica in the bathroom and kitchen.

5) It is missing the bathtub sliding opening door. It was cracked when we
bought it and we removed it and just replaced it with a shower rod and
curtain. I believe you can purchase a new door if you wanted one.

6) The pocket door between the bedroom and bathroom kept coming off of the
track. We do have the door and you can have it if you want it. Right now there
is a floor length curtain on a curtain rod. Cute curtain ( I made it so of
course I think it is cute)..it is the little Nash pulling the large silver
travel trailer. Also has a heavy terry cloth curtain for colder weather.

7) The heater works intermittently. We use a small plug in oil filled radiator
and it keeps the trailer warm just fine. We never dry camp so this has not
been a problem. We figured we'd use the RV park's electricity rather then our
propane. We will also include the radiator.

The woodwork is in very good condition and there are no soft spots on the
floor and it does not leak anywhere. We were in the rainstorms in Phoenix in
January and we were dry as a bone!  Woodwork is a dark oak, I would say. LOTS
of Storage space...in fact, we have never filled it all up.

We also have some spare parts i.e.:  sliders for the drawers, two new spare
twist valves for the gray and black water, some spare fuses.  We have put
about $4500 into the trailer since we bought it. All the installations have
been done by professionals. We have only done some of the minor cosmetic work
ourselves. So, if you are interested, make an offer. As you can tell, this
unit will need little, if any, work on it. If you are looking to buy real
cheap and then put in sweat equity, then this is NOT the one for you. If you
are looking for one to hook up and off you go and that you can redecorate
because you want to (but don't need to), you have found the perfect one.

Body is in good shape as well. There are some dings here and there, but
nothing major. Since it is a 1977, the original gold color oxidized away and
we have repainted it. Not exactly the right color, but good enough that the
old girl can hold her head up proudly.The aluminum siding look just like every
older SS we have seen.

Asking $7500.  There will be a website up with photos in about a week--we are
aiming for Sept.1.  Go to www.ldcollett.com/silver

I would be glad to answer any questions that you might have...my email is
dochk@xxxxxxxxxx.com.

THANKS!  Harriet

Hi, Harriet,
    I don't know if you remember but I mention a long long time ago that my
vacuum cleaner works great in my 1972 Deluxe Continental Rocket but of course
...no bags. You mentioned that you thought you might still have some lying
around and I wondered if that's true. It's an O'Keefe & Merritt vacuum and the
holes in the bag are in the top corner of the bag.  Good luck on selling your
trailer.

Hi-

The bags I had had the whole in the center and I threw them away when I did 
not hear back from you. Sounds like they were the wrong ones anyway.

I hate to sell the streak, but we got a beautiful Jayco 4 slide out fifth 
wheel that better suits our travel needs at this time.

Thanks for the good wishes!

Harriet
