1956 Vintage Airstream |
A Classic Travel Trailer from Wally Byam and Co. |
Had some photo fun with my 56 Airstream and 2 NYC Pinup Models! http://jmartorano.zenfolio.com/p896488050
Made a visit to "Bakers Acres" in Plymouth NY this past weekend to see some classic Airstreams and get some interior design/build ideas.
What an excellent open house this was at "The Bash". I did not have the opportunity to camp this time, but I thoroughly enjoyed my short but sweet visit. It was great to finally meet so many of you forum members. The fireworks were amazing, but the venue (Bakers Acres) and the hosts were over the top! You folks really know how to put on a family camping weekend and have fun!Aerial photo by Dale "Ace" Goldberg.
Progress continues on the dinette. Looking forward to my first glass of wine at this table!
Here is the initial front bed build.

Just finished the install of the Cork Flooring. I picked it up at Lowes and the cost was only $2.98 per SF or $68.51 per box. It's 13/32 in thickness by 11 3/16", and it installs with no glue since its a click together alternative. So far so good!
