Well to no ones surprise we have more than doubled that value with upgrades and improvements. I plan on uping the value and have been compiling the sold prices on similar Airstreams to support my argument if need be. But first I am entering the begining of a claim for side panel replacement (Oops I scraped a steel post). Allstate has given me a claim number and I have selected the Airstream shop to do the repair. Rough verbal estimate is 3k to 4k. The shop is about to turn their estimate and thus we will hear soon the results. Wish us well. I will update you.

UPDATE;
The Allstate 'adjuster' was here 3 days ago and inspected our damage. The repair estimate by our selected Airstream service shop is about $3200. The adjuster telephoned the shop for verification and told me he will approve the repairs at that price minus my deductible. Then he asked if I was satisfied with the entire claim process. I mentioned that I did have to make a couple of unnecessary followup calls to Allstate to 'keep the ball rolling'. He appologized and waived my deductible. So my only out of pocket expense will be the travel (2 1/2 hour drive). We can overnight at the repair facility. Kidda like a 3 night camping trip.
