| Ranger Doug 1948 Airstream |
| Ranger Doug from Alaska found himself a Gorgeous 1948 Airstream. The Body is in Excellent Condition. Many of the Interior Parts will be kept and possibly worked into the new design. The floor and axle, however, needs to be replaced before he can go forward with the custom interior. That's where Sierra Trailer Restoration comes in! |
| Different Angle with a Peek at the Driver Side |
| Nice Picture of the Passenger Side - a few dents but we can fix them. |

| This is one nice trailer any way you look at it. Terrific Rivit Pattern! |
| Original Interior ~ Front ~ Dining Area |
| Original Stove & Aluminum Kitchen Cabinets (These can be refurbished and worked in to the new Floor Plan) Always nice to keep some of the old goodies |
| Interior Rear ~ Sleeping Area |

| Always a bit of a shame to "Gut the Interior" but that's the only way to replace a floor. |
