Re: [A/S] Brake Controlers
Terry,
We bought oures by accident - were looking for a small, inexpensive older
unit, and certainly not an Airstream.
We came accross the ad by a remote seller, listing a 23 ft Airstream for
$500. Turned out to be a 26' in quite good condition - for having set on
the remote Washington coast for years!
Be on the lookout for:
Tail sag - ours doesn't, but it is sometimes a problem with the overhang
Floor rot - ours had three main bad areas: front door, window opposite
door, back under vanity. I fixed them, and sealed the seams outside. The
leaks hide by traveling down the inner wall to floor edges.
We're using ours now, and are upgrading the cabinets, etc a little at a
time. The furnace was shot, but the 38 yr old Norcold refer still works
great!
