I stumbled on this thread as the subject said "red barn Safari" I like barns and I like Safaris, so here I am.
I must say this is one of the most magnificent 50s Safaris I have ever seen. It is amazing you created this beautiful Airstream in six months. Most excellent!
I also stumbled on to this thread thinking I could help a new Airstreamer. Turns out this person is a 50s Airstream enthusiasts too. I took the liberty to suggest you might be able to help with this persons questions. Here is a link to the thread:
http://www.airforums.com/forums/f73/...ns-129514.html
Anyway, fun to see these old Airstreams in such beautiful condition. Makes my Trade Wind look very average!

Galley cabinets
I did remove the original stove/oven because it was in an absolutely terrible position below the front window. I now have the new stovetop on the counter top and no oven. I now have more storage space a small counter top below the window and no interference with the bath door.

TV table....what the heck
I had a nice piece of formica covered plywood from the stove cutout in the Galley. Instead of throwing it away I made a small foldout table and mounted it below the TV and at a good height to be usable from the bed...extended or retracted. It gives a nice option....and I installed an electrical outlet right beside/below it.

Thanks Guys! I was not sure, or cared, if anybody would like a solid color awning.

your Pal, the Pope.
Thanks for the visit and the kind words. Wish we could have gotten you more involved in polishing.

Thanks....it was pretty tense for two days. I had a heavy duty barn for the Airstreams....I hope others without that cover type protection did OK.

Proud new owner
Very pleased to announce I have purchased the Red Barn Safari from Robin and moved her to Houston. Looking forward to many years of enjoyment.
