Introduction

Well Folks...a few years ago, my brother and I bought a "complete" (project) 58 Airstream 18 "Traveler". Found on Ebay, it was only a short tow truck flatbed ride away from home (near Santa Cruz, CA). Since my brother had already purchased a "restored" 54 Flying Cloud, also found on Ebay, picked up and hauled all the way home from Oklahoma. He thought I should be working with Aluminum too. Fast forward to a couple of "weaks" ago and in a moment of total ? I purchased his end of the 58. This, I guess, to help him finance a Baja trip with his latest flame..a VW 4x4 "Westy" Camper (he's still restoring his "restored" 54) AND my chance to become completely involved with my own Airstream! My quest for more Airstream info brought me to you! Thanks for the help you've already provided! Danish
PS. My wife's quotes on the Airstream..."That's cute". "Is that mold?" "It will be really nice when it's finished!" "Better hurry, Summer's coming."

Sounds like fun! Welcome to the forum. The promise of warm weather and good camping is a great restoration motivator
