Joey, I was wondering if that A/C has any trouble keeping it cool in the summer?

I tried to sell my little Airstream I was asking 1500 and people just gave me the run around and wanted to get it for less so that being said I decided to keep it and finish it. I built bunk beds in the nose of it. A full size bed on bottom and a twin on top with a crib for my newborn that goes accross our feet on the bottom bunk. I will post pictures as soon as possible.

Love it!
When not in use, park it in the side yard for an outhouse.

You could turn on the air full and rent it out as a walk in Beer Cooler for outdoor concerts etc.

Back to work on the airstream again. I fell on hard times and about lost everything but im like a cat always land on my feet. I was going to buy a pop up camper but just figured I have this nice little airstream in my back yard and it really needs finished. Im removing the extention on the tongue and removing the original axle and replacing it with a axle with a low profile tire and sliding the axle back like I should have done in the first place. could kick myself for cutting the tongue off.

Sorry havent posted in a long time but glad to be back!!!!!
