Wow, again! She's a beauty. I can't quite tell what type of flooring was used, is it a laminate or hardwood?

Sugarfoot here on the forums has a '60 Tradewind that had white wall tires like yours and a red-n-white striped awning that made her Airstream look soooo kewl and retro. She keeps her Tradewind polished to a mirror shine that you can shave by...or apply make up, whichever.

Nice looking coach you got there...the Iowa Boys really do a great job.

This is about the cutest airstream I have ever seen!
Welcome to the forums! You have a very nice looking trailer! Have fun with it!

plates on wall

Actually, I leave the plates on the wall while traveling. They are china and attached with velcro. It's amazing how great that keeps them in place. Thank you for your nice comments.

One concern would be, how long those plates would stay in place. Are the plates china or plastic?

The plates are attached with a lot of velcro. Wish I had invented the product! They stay right where they are during travel. Thank you for your nice comments.
