Time to take a step forward... The Furnace is working pretty well so far. Today we will be testing all the systems tongue to bumper and giving the trailer a thorough cleaning.

We'll be making a list for you Andy.

Since most parts of an Airstream, or any other trailer for that matter, except the body and frame, are common throught out the industry, parts are readily available. Things like lights are can be a problem. I'm amazed that Airstream will fix older trailers at the factory, auto makers won't do that, and genuine oem parts get scarce for older cars and such. There really isn't much of a market for doors and cabinets for 1968 travel trailers, only truly hardcore owner, such as those found on these forums, will make extensive restorations of 20 year old trailers. After a point, its thank God for the internet.

Well said HDS. We are having a much better day today.

I just twisted off when I went to show it off to the wife and the first thing I fixed didn't work any more.

Sooo glad to have it working again.

I view this trailer as our rolling cabin.

I just want something I can maintain and make reasonable repairs to.

Now Log onto the CHAT Room and share your experiences. Good bad or indifferent.
