New Owner/ New Project!

Today I fulfilled my dream to own an AS. I traded my two mid 90's jetskis and trailer for my Overlander-even trade!

She seems structurally sound and in need of some TLC.

Next:

1) Let the kid's name her
2) Find factory/User's Manuals
3) Full Inspection and component/system tests

Any constructive, supportive advice, recommendations etc. is appreciated. I will update as we progress

Huge congratulations on your Overlander!! We have one as well. The first time you pull into a campground full of white boxes your chest will swell. I have an original owners manual for this airstream. Pm me lets talk!

Eastern South Dakota is very pretty with hills, rivers, and trees.
