A new toy to go with the old toy.

Picked up a new to me old Airstream travel trailer last week while on vacation. Its a 68 28' Airstream International Ambassador. Started cleaning it out. Gotta replace all the copper plumbing, was never winterized apparently. Otherwise in fair shape. Matches my 68 Custom Camper too. Also, got to try out my rearend from IronMike, 70's Dana 60 with 3.54 gears and posi. I resealed it and cleaned,greased bearings, new brakes. Ran great Mike. Towes good, no problems. Hubs stayed nice and cool. Drove from Russellville Ar. to Tulsa to check out trailer. Bought it and towed home. Stopped at Wallmart for new Goodyears on trailer though. Old dryrotted tires got so hot couldn't keep fingers on tire.
