I'm glad to be a new member! And, I'm happy to finally spend time with my Airstream. I've had it for 5 years, but promised my husband that we'd finish our house remodel before I started with the AS. The previous owner was meticulous about keeping the mechanics in good shape, but apparently never washed up. Since it's a 1977, it's got 32 years of wear and grime. So, the demolition and clean up begins..... I've tossed the drapes, lower tambors, and carpet. There is a bit of water damage and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it's only a wee bit and I won't have to start tearing out flooring, too. I'm documenting as I go along and hope to have some time to blog here, too! Anyone else beginning the loving restoration of a curvy beauty?
