1950's Overlander

I found this old Overlander in a storage yard with damage to the rear end cap. It is pretty much a total redo on the inside but the original parts seem to be there. The serial number is 07015. Does anyone know what year it might be? I think it is a 1957 or 58.

1955 Ohio built Overlander. http://vintageairstream.com/photo-archives/1955-cruiser-overlander-26/

The endcaps are flat panels, much easier to straighten or replace than the stretch formed panels used later.

Bill, thanks for the information. We could pick it up pretty cheap so we are thinking about starting a long term project.
