Living Full Time in An Airstream
Hello everyone! My name is Josh Wood, and I'm excited to be a guest blogger for VARR. First things first, an introduction of my family. We are a family of four that have been full time living in our 1976 Sovereign 31' Airstream for coming up on 10 months. My wife Lisa is a freelance photographer, and is also the Social Media Coordinator for VARR. We have two boys, Beckham, age 5, and Graham, age 3.

A Restoration Blast from the Past
1950 was a wholesome time in America and 1950 was a pivotal time for innovation.
Unique ideas were popping up all over, but as fast as a unique niche surfaced another moment of genius rose its head. By taking common materials from World War II, the travel industry specifically aluminum trailers, invented a hotel room on wheels.

Leaky Window Repair - Vintage Airstreams
Ever since Airstream started their trailer production business in 1931, many trailers have traveled the world and experienced all the different weather conditions. Each weather condition has a different effect on the trailers and the exterior aluminum skin that makes them so iconic. One of the drawbacks of course is the difficulty to keep each aluminum window water tight.

Maggie the Airstream
Each vintage Airstream we have in stock has a vibrant past that we may never fully know about. What really gets us out of bed each day is knowing that we have the opportunity to give these beauties a bright future, a "comeback," if you will. Our client, Mark, recently purchased a 1968 Overlander from us in "as is" condition and has invited us to follow his journey of restoring it. We are thrilled to be a part of Mark's restoration story and now you too can find inspiration from the restoration process of his beloved "Maggie". You can follow them...
