1993 21' sovereign.

Hello all,

I'm new to this group and new to airstream.

I found a 1993 21' sovereign in my neighbourhood that had been sitting for about 6-7 years I walk by it almost daily and it looks to be in good shape from the outside.
I approached the owner and asked if he would be willing to sell and he said yes.


So hopefully we get to have a good look at tonight.

Now the big question is what should we be looking out for?
Leaks? where are the most prone to leak.
Frame?
Axle?
what else?

thanks.

One of my favorite trailers, looked at a few but never worked out.
Axles will need to be replaced, batteries, tires, etc. Check the floor for rot, front to rear and inside hatches and under the bed if possible. Test all the appliances, the refer will take a day to get to temp but try on shore and propane if time allows, water heater, ac, etc.
If generaly in good shape and price is fair go for it but do expect some repair costs.
