But we're celebrating cautiously until she's resting peacefully in our driveway.

Congratulations! Very happy for you!

AWESOME...Post more Pics when you get the chance. CONGRATS..

Now the million dollar question, Before Aircooled spills the beans <if he chooses>...What would this Airstream go for, with all the knowledge we know about her?

Any guesses?

LOL... Thanks! We love the Google Earth comments from you and Mistral Blue... Funny thing is, when an acquaintance had told us the general location of this AS off the road, we actually WERE frantically panning Google Earth to try and find it. Jay just happened to actually find it driving around last weekend. I'm so glad he has a good sense of direction!!!

Many congrats on your new-to-you-but-yet-to-be-acquired trailer. Its been a long three days since this thread started and now, above all else, we need to wait another three days?

Anxiously awaiting additional photos.

Actually, sounds like the guy's son (who has kids of his own) was happy to hear it was going to someone who wants to restore it; he said his main concern was that he didn't want it to go to someone who was going to trash it or scrap it... we assured him that was NOT going to happen in this case!
