Hello all,
My husband and I just purchased a 31' 1973 Airstream International
Sovereign at a very reasonable price. Of course, it came with some issues. The biggest issue is floor rot along the perimeter of the living room. It appears that the rot goes all the way from the kitchen cabinetry (perhaps extending underneath the cabinetry) to the couch and perhaps under the couch all of the way to the front of the trailer. We were planning on removing the couch and credenza and replacing the floor up until the kitchen however, after reading other threads here on the forum I am realizing how involved this process is. We did not realize before that the subfloor is key to holding the shell in place.
So... we have a problem. While we plan to do a complete restoration of the trailer in the fullness of time, we also purchased it as temporary living quarters for the next few months while we move to San Francisco and figure out a more permanent living situation. We are in need of a quick fix, temporary solution to our subfloor problem. We have, at the most, two weeks to remedy this. Any suggestions?
Any help would be much appreciated!!
