Dreamstream becoming a reality

We are Casey & Carissa. We've recently purchased our diamond in the rough; a 1967 Airstream Overlander 26' Double Model. She's a big project; she sat unused for 25+ years with busted out windows, exposed to the elements. We've always dreamt about owning & restoring an Airstream - but it was nothing more than a dream for our far out future - until I stumbled upon a deal on Craigslist that we couldn't possibly pass up - and we couldn't be more excited about it! We know it will be an enormous project but we are so thrilled to embark on the adventure. We can't wait to turn Stella into our Dream 'Stream!

Welcome

It sure does sound like you have a project on your hands but totally worth it, she will be beautiful. The future starts NOW! Best wishes and I can't wait to see what you do with her, another silver American icon and piece of history saved.

Our 66 Overlander sat unused for 18 or so years in a field, it has been renewed and is an awesomeand totally enjoyable camper. The pic is from a photo shoot at Stone Mountain Park last Fall...
You will love the Overlander. Perfect size and easy to make your own!
