[VAC] I may buy a '64 Overlander some questions

[FWSLOART@xxxxxxx]

Greetings,

We have never owned an Airstream and prior to this have been tent campers.

We have found a 64 Overlander (#900's) and hope to get some advise from 
people who have experience with vintage Airstreams.

The Overlander seems sound but would have the integrity checked out by a 
Mechanic before purchase.  It is a two axel, rear bath, double bed model.  
The cabinets surfaces have delaminated, the shower,tub, toilet has been cut 
and a new toilet has been installed,  floor seems solid,  and the rest of the 
inside is well used.
The outside has no major dents, 4 or 5 rivited aluminum patches no larger 
than 4x7 inches, the step seems rusted in place, the gray water from the 
shower joins the black water just past a shut off valve next to the tank, not 
all storage doors open with a key, and their are no "eyebrows" above the door 
or windows, and several holes have been made to accomidate a standard home 
door light, T-V antenna, etc.

We like the trailer but would like some ideas from people with experience 
with this type of situation.  We are willing to do minor repairs but would 
probably have most work done professionally.  The seller is asking $5,000.
