Excellent choices throughout.
It's great to see how folks tailor their older trailers. Rebuilding your trailer to fit like an Armani suit rather than Airstream's “off the rack from Sears” cut and quality.
I too, concluded that the ominous kitchen overheads invaded a “feel” of space. Attaching a few hooks, racks, bars, open trays... on the wall works well. A good choice of “trade-offs”. The airy feeling and brightness much outweighs the loss of overhead storage, and no annoying head-banging!
You and I found the same two burner cook-top. It's as nice as any Gaggenau, Thermador, Viking, but the burners can displace themselves during travel. Removing them and finding storage was my first solution, but that leaves the electronic ignitors somewhat vulnerable until the stove is reassembled. My solve was to insert a flat hook at the back, join a length of shock cord into a loop with an electrical wire crimp, a few twists, loop over knobs, totally secure, and all there, all the time. The shock cord is removable.
You're right, It's never “done”, I'm five years in restoring the GT. Camping in comfort, but realizing and embracing “unfinished” as a way of life.... A particular Jungian Temperament to live with.
Nice work
