[A/S] How do i safely purchase Sovereign Airstream

["spddoc" <spddoc@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all. Coincidently see another post mentioning the exact type of 
trailer i am dealing with. It is helpful to know in that post that my 
concerns about moving this unit are valid.
I know nothing about Airstreams except that since i was a 
kid, i was enchanted with them, and that they seem to hold their 
value. I am now grown up, and have come across a huge one while 
looking for some temporary backyard storage/hobby area for myself 
while we fix our house. 
 Don't know the year. It is either a 69 or 75? It does not look dull 
at all on the outside. 
It says Sovereign.
I do not own it yet, but will be purchasing it on Saturday if your 
replies make me feel like it is a safe bet. 

Even though the price seems low. I am hesitant to purchase it becasue 
i am not mechanically inclined. But for my purpose of getting storage 
space and avoiding to build a back yard shed which i can never 
resell, this makes sense to me. 

My concerns;
- i will be relying on the towing company and what they say and do
- - tow company says that if the wheels will be frozen, it will have 
to go on a flat bed which will cost $100 per hour. Cost to tow-$50 
(bout a mile) plus extra to put wheels on if they are not frozen.
- it has been sitting for 5-10 years, and the wheels have been 
removed and stored in the unit, they may not all pertain to the unit. 
How do i tell? and, Are used tires/new tires expensive? Might i need 
to replace more than just the tires to move it?

(Pardon my ignorance on mechanics.)

- If the wheels are frozen, is this a terrible thing? Is it costly to 
repair. Won't some WD40 unfreeze them. 
- Is it possible that while the wheels are turning, and the unit is 
getting pulled out of the owners yard, that something can crack 
underneath that is costly? 
- what are some clues thsat will show me to stear clear.

Are there any tips or clues to look out for that will ensure i don't 
end up getting stuck with something that will cost me a fortune 
getting it to my house. 

Or am i safe if i get it at this price.

It does not seem to have any kind of rust underneath that cracks off 
when you poke at it.

The possibility of it cracking scares me. Am i being totally 
rediculous.

The unit has no fridge. All else seems intact, but it needs a 
cleaning. It all seems shiny below the dust. Other than that, it is 
dry, and has no hint of leaks or musty odors. It seems a bit 
discolerd on the walls inside. It has hardly any 
significant dents, and i may have something that is worthwhile to 
restore someday. It was not my intention, and not a size i would 
have ever want to own. 

I would like to know if anyone would be interested in purchasing this 
unit from me when i am done using it in about 6 months to 1 year. It 
is not 
likely that i will restore it. I would prefer to trade for a small 
airstream about 15 foot. Floor seems solid.
