Cleaning Bertha- Airstream Argosy 28

Yesterday we got together to start cleaning Bertha. Since she’s been sitting in a field for about 20 years she is nice and dirty. And by dirty I mean covered in mice urine and feces. Yep, the fun kind of dirty.



AMAZING fabric we found in Bertha:) Get ready for some limited edition items on our site using these bad boys! {After they are dry cleaned of course}

We knew there was a soft spot in the floor when we bought her, so we weren’t really surprised when we ripped up the carpet. We will obviously be replacing part of the floor. We are also installing new flooring fitting with the time period she was built {70’s}.

I could not believe the condition of this radio! Brand spankin new lookin! Yippee!!! And IT WORKS! We’ve got surround sound:) Two speaker up front and two in the back. You bet we will be using this baby!

And here is what we found in the vent. Hello wasp colony! YUCK!

We like to save the best for last. Check out these awesome owl lights we found in Bertha! So fun!!  We also found several other cool items like an old razor, a yearbook from 1917, the original brochure and owners manual for Bertha in mint condition, and tons of other fun trinkets we are hanging on too:)

If you missed the before pics you can find them here.
