Congrats!  You're doing it right, too:  Existing Airstream to go have
fun in and travel, another project Airstream to restore at your leisure
without the pressure.  The early '60's GT's have a cool breadloaf style
all their own.

Ughh.  That's why I always preach to not replace the older heaters and
refer's if possible. The quality just isn't there for the average brand
stuff, and with the circuit boards, we're not going to be seeing then
still working 30-45 years down the road like the old stuff can.
