The day we brought our Airstream home.

Or at least within the first couple days. Here is our 1975 Tradewind as we got her. This was to document it before we start our project. Right now it is getting some frame work done, but we should be able to get started on some of our personalization started in a week or two. Sorry it is in a link to an outside site, but it is just easier to do this way.

Wow...photography is amazing! I'm bookmarking this site on many levels! Looking forward to seeing your progress. We bought a new Bambi last year, but now I'm itching to buy an older one and fix it up.

Good luck to you
Kim

Ahh...here's the thread again, thought it disappeared last night. Anyway, I am going to follow your progress. In 5 years, I'd love to buy an older one and remodel it just the way I'd like it. Don't think I can part with our little Bambi though so think we'll have to have two!

BTW...your kids are darling. Wish we would have done this when our kids were that age! Enjoy!
