 I've just started thinking/wondering along the same lines, as our "new" '73 Safari needs some serious help inside. (The interior surfaces of the shell are OK, but not the dividing partitions, cabinet fronts and doors, etc.) I've always thought the insides of Airstreams should look a bit
more like the outsides (Streamline, Buck Rogers, whatever you want to call it). Is there anything like an "aluminum" or "brushed stainless" plastic laminate (Formica, Wilson Art...)? If such exists, I've never seen it. Alternately, has anybody tried working with thin sheet aluminum (available in fairly wide rolls as flashing) laminated (contact cement?) to a substratum like Masonite or the backside of Formica)? Any other thoughts, practical or creative--or both?
