We are selling our all aluminum vintage Avion 31' 1972 LeGrande. The 1972 is a special year as it was the first year with tri-tanks of black, gray and water (previously models only had two tanks) and the last year of the classic 13 fanned aluminum front/rear ends. The extremely fortunate thing about the Avion LeGrande is that it is in original condition. It seems the only change made since birth would have been that the upholstery on the couch was redone in the early eighties. The A/C works great and cools extremely well here in Texas. The refrigerator/freezer is in working order although a new magnetic gasket may be on the horizon. It has brand new, ten ply tires and the bearings on all axles packed with Timken Red. All plumbing has been replaced with PEX lines and a brand new hot water heater and toiler have been installed. All interior lighting replaced with LED's. The Zip Dee awning is in great shape for a 45 year old awning. It has all of the original manuals/brochures. It has a rear bath with two twins and a convertible sofa sleeper/couch. Maintenance items performed:- new PEX plumbing - new ten ply tires- new hot water heater- new toilet and dump valve (still have original toilet)- new LED clearance lights all the way - new bulbs and wiring repairs for stop, turn signal, backup, license plate, and clearance all in excellent working order- needs nothing to be used immediately, just hook up and go- NO LEAKS!!!!Since our 4 months ownership, we pulled the original carpet from the factory and it has the original vinyl flooring underneath. We also had it tested for asbestos which is does NOT have. Unfortunately, during install of the carpet, the linoleum was cut and shows on the edges, so the owner may want to put a new vinyl/pergo type floor of their liking. The other item of note is the electric brake connection is intermittent, I am guessing it's a bad ground. Also, one of the glass pieces above the twin bed is cracked and has been taped over (purchased like this). Video- s:// /watch?v=90MN8PmxZqw (note this has the old original carpet that was removed and the older toilet. It is how it looked like when we purchased it) This trailer tows amazing. We did our inaugural trip to Disney in the fall without a weight distributing hitch, it didn't need it! It tracked straight and stable behind our Dodge. Reason for sale: I did a lot of research on Avions and these are hands down the best built trailer, many say better built than Airstream and I concur. However, the one thing that cannot be changed easily is the floor plan, it is not large family friendly and is the only reason for sale.
