1970 Airstream Restoration--From Start to Finish

created at: 2010/03/11

Camperboy and I spotted a video series on You Tube last weekend, courtesy of the DIY Network's Classic Rides, and fell in love. Not with the show's presenter but with his project. It's been a dream of ours to buy a silver bullet like this (1970, 27 ft, Land Yacht) and renovate it, so when we started watching the first episode we were glued to the Mac for the following 9. That's right, in ten episodes, which include 4 parts each, we see the Airstream come back to life. Above is what the Land Yacht looked like when it first came into the shop, and below is what it looked like at the end of its stay--and after a 200+ hours of buffing. If that impresses you, you should see the inside!
