I'm glad this airstream found a home in country, and is not getting butchered up to sale hotdogs.

That will look nice all polished up, congratulations on your someday project. It's good to have some options for which project to work on,house or trailer?
Good luck

Its nice to see another old girl getting a second chance. I have a 57 tandem that needed a little spit shine and a little love. Ive been giving her love all winter and Im only a year or two from the spit shine.

The skins and windows look beautiful on your trailer. Mine had a couple of issues that I have learned to overcome. Remember if it gets ugly or frustrating hop on the forums and let off some steam. Without the people here I would have lost my sense of humor long ago.

Enjoy your new trailer and your new home

I just found this one hidden in the hills. Trying to identify it now and see if it has a title.

Two axles were an option in 1959 too. I have a 1959 Overlander that is a single axle. Hmm. I wonder what year the double axle became standard.

Surely by now you can update that profile! And let us know if you've made any progress.
