[VAC] Airstream Roadshow '48 Weewind
Remember when that guy brought a Chippledale highboy
in for an Antique Roadshow TV show appraisal. The
piece was worth $175,000. However, since the guy had
"cleaned it up and refinished it" it was only worth
$15,000. To get a collector price for an Airstream
you need to have it in near original condition. The
'48 Wee Wind on E-bay would have brought more money in
"as-is" original condition.
A collector would not even consider an item so
extensively altered.
