Hi, I'm Amy

I have bought a 1975 Argosy trailer and plan to live in it. It needs some floor, plumbing and airconditioner work. I have never worked on one of these and hope to learn about it from your forum.

Howdy and welcome to the forums! You'll definitely find answers to all of your questions, as if it can be done to an Airstream, it's already been done by someone here!

Good luck with your restoration project....and BTW, we all love pictures!
