Welcome to forums! Would love to see some pictures of what you are starting with. Be sure to add your trailer to the Argosy database here on the forums also. Our Argosy is also a 24 but obviously a year older than yours. The 24 is a great size offering enough room but still super easy to pull. We've had ours for 18 years now and have towed her all over east of the Rockies with plans to head out west when we become empty nesters in a year. Over the years we have repaired or replaced every system and repainted twice. This forum has a wealth of knowledge that will help on getting your trailer to the point you're happy with it. We are always surprised at the attention our Argosy receives, be ready to explain that yes it is an Airstream and yes it was painted from the factory.

Are you planning on a restore or resto/mod?

Drew

Restore and remodeling I guess. We are painting the outside. Tracked down the original owner. That was fun. Painting the inside as well. Tore out the carpet. Replaced one vent so far. Also replacing all four tires. Trying to get it ready for our daughters upcoming basketball season. Too many hotel stays last year!!
