New Airstreamer Alert

Well we finally purchased our 1965 31' Intl. Holy Crap!! These forums are the best I have ever seen on the web. I cant wait to pick your brains on this new hobby you all call Airstreaming. At least I will have a place to stay when my wife divorces me!

Welcome to the froum, marzboy, and welcome to Airstreaming. Here's hoping your wife gets just as excited about Airstreaming as you are.

Hey, Marzboy!

Welcome to the forums, and here's wishing you all the best luck with your new-2-u trailer!

The photo in your profile looks mighty nice, but don't think you're gonna get away with just one.

We want to see ALLA dat trayla!

It's almost Addictive

They call it Aluminumitis. Once you catch it there is no cure.

Enjoy your trailer. Tell your wife it's an investment in your relationship. If that don't work then go for the "I need a mancave" approach.

65

marzboy - Welcome and I might add you picked up a great year vintage AS. I've attached a pic of my 65 that we found 1 year ago this month. It has been a great ride but now I am going to ride to places unknown in my vintage 65 airstream just as you will. Best of luck.....Tim

I will be tapping that knowledge this is gonna be a big project, more pics to come!!
