Airstream diner build thread

Hey guys I'm going to put all if my build in here. 1962 globetrotter turning it into a mobile diner with huge wrap around counter in rear with diner stools.

P.o. Did a a lot of stupid crap like putting roofing compound On all the panels they hid. Put dividers in the back where the huge counter/eating area will be, stools on outside.

Finally got the floor back in, will be spraing the interior on Monday and fabbing up the mounts for the seats

I hope you will have supports under the back porch? Did you beef up the frame back there?
