Re: [A/S] new here and looking for an airstream

It took me 4 years to find a half way decent one, still axles, tires, brakes, shocks, furnace, etc etc were bad. WEll after 31 years I guess
things go bad..but most of the interior was intact, frame was good,
no bad dents, (pulled out the worse with a plunger) Now have a sweet camper..it was worth it.

All 4 of them needed axils for example and the list of things went up from there. I realy wanted to rescue one of them but the cost of the unit and repairs added up to twice to three times what it cost new. The add said a small dent in the rear corner, it turned out that the bumper was bent back into the unit and broken off. After that 50 mile trip I decided I needed more pictures before I commited my time and fuel.

Working on a restore would teach him how to do everything he would need to know later on. So If you have spotted anything within 250 miles of birmingham Let me know.
