  • @spawnofdawnacle thank you ,, this is wounderful,, you have done a realy nice job ... we are from australia and we dont see these here any more ,

  • bet those Dexter axles cost a fortune!

    my trailer puts the ass in ambassador..a 62!

  • So Cool - Love how the old trailer was re-built beautifully.

  • I am working on a 1969 airstream and I like the movable table you made. What sort of track did you use to mount it to the wall and the cabinet? Yours turned out very nice. Mine is still in good enough shape that I am going to reupholster and refloor it and put it on the road.

  • What is the tune, quite catchy!

  • I just started listening to The VAP. I have a 24ft square box trailer but I love the vintage Airstreams. This Ambassador rocks!

  • Beautiful job, Tim. Long live the Airstream! I have a '61 Tradewind- virtually IDENTICAL to your trailer, only 5 feet shorter. I'm in the process of renovating mine enough to actually take it camping. It's tough to not gut the entire thing and start over, but I keep reminding myself I bought it to USE it. BTW-I just started listening to the VAP. Keep up the great work!

  • Beautiful!
