Hey guys don't have a 69 anymore but after spending a few years searching for a wing window up front and not willing to compromise with a patch in the corner or a plastic one from airstream my eye caught this.

AIRSTREAM WINDOWS | eBay

appears to me the window on top is a drivers side front wing window for a 69 (note the square bottom outside corner). Don't know if it is glass or plexi (frame looks intact and not hacked up). At $100 it's a steal if its glass.

Quick update. Skins are on, applied our first and second coat of Kiltz. Next weekend the paint goes on and the floor will be installed. Here's "patches" on her last night before the primer!

New Photos

What a weekend! Two coats of primer, paint, a new floor and two days worth of polishing the window hardware. This week, we start on the cabinets ... and powder coating. Some photos... enjoy!

More updates!

Four months later ... we're nearing the finish line!! Since the previous post, "Patches" has enjoyed a few more upgrades! She still needs a few more interior tweaks and a complete polish, but we're almost there! Special thanks to Paul and Ann from A&P Vintage Trailers in Paradise Texas who've helped us with some of the tougher parts of the refurb process! We've had a ball and can't wait to post the final shots. Wanted to share our progress with our friends on the forum. Enjoy.

Your trailer looks spectacular! We got a chance to see Patches in person a few weeks ago when we were at Paul and Anne's. You guys have done an awesome job. Very impressive.

Wow. What a small world! Thank you. We love her and can't wait to get her on the road. We think they are two of the nicest people on the planet...and talented to boot. Hope to meet you someday!
