Links to the major renovations

we get a lot of new people asking about fixing up an old airstream so i thought i'd create a thread that could list links to the major renovation threads. then this could be cut and paste as needed.

i've included the following (in no particular order)

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f142...ler-11687.html

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f4/s...ent-17197.html

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f4/1...ion-20215.html

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f109...9-a-10709.html

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f226...nte-15132.html

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f109...ion-12320.html

http://www.airforums.com/forums/f411...oud-27533.html

i know there's a few i'm forgetting, feel free to post others.

I am doing a major renovation... I do not know how to put that fancy blue link to the thread here though... I document it on my blog which is linked below. My project may also make a brief visit on The Vintage Airstream Podcast, for I have challenge Colin Hyde and Rob Baker to a bathroom renovation show down. One David verses two Goliaths....

The 58 cruiser, I think you should take it off your list. The guy got to the sweet spot and sold it unfinished. The thread was strong and then it just ends. One is left wondering why. Andy was so into it and then he just dropped it and not even a sorry guys or bye or anything....
