My husband has been wanting to paint our 1983 34' Airstream. We would also like to see pictures on this forum. Also, has anyone had problems with the side thermopane windows that condensation has built up inside. Is it possible to drill a hole to let this water out without breaking the glass?

Pictures....we want pictures

Our 1990 34' excella is hitting that point in its life. Clear coat or paint?

I'd love to see pictures of your rig to see how it looks.

The silver is the Ford paint used on the pickup trucks of the 150 series. I do not know the number but any Ford dealer will know it.
