Greetings from the Napa Valley

Hey there! My wife and I are joining up as we begin the restoration of our custom 1967 Sovereign trailer. Custom because from what we have been told it is one of the only Airstreams ever made with three doors. All of the doors are on the curb side.

From what we are told by the factory it was made for factory exec's and sales people to use for the 1968 New York Airstream Jamboree.

As for our plans? We are currently gutting it for a frame off restoration that will see it become a mobile retail sales unit for my wife business, Calamity Jane's Trading Co. of the Napa Valley.

We will probably be on here a lot asking advice and we will try to share the progress as we go on. I will attempt to expand on what we plan to do in more detail next time and hope for useful feedback!

All the Best!
Steve & Calamity (Cathy)

There is a thread in the Admin sub-forum which might help:

Here is that forum FYI:

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f138/

The sticky topics at the top are a good read, in particular this one:

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f138...ics-44928.html
[See Post #7]

This one might also help:

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f138...ad-168397.html

Also the search function above with the blue border works very well, so maybe try "posting photos" and see what pops up.

The FAQs [link in blue menu bar above] have some info also:

[see Reading and Posting Messages link]

Good luck!
