[VAL] 1956 Caravanner



With the shell back on the new floor (YAY) my wife and I are trying to come to some
agreement on a new layout.  Our 1956 Caravaneer existing layout is not exactly what
we want. 

Q:  Layouts:  Does anyone have any unique or at least some varieties of how airstream
laid out 22 ft units?  

Q:  New Grey, Black & Fresh Water tanks:  Any recommendations on where to get
new tanks, as well as what specifications (as far a weight) is recommended for this
light frame?  We were thinking of putting the blackwater tank on the floor (like
our76) and putting the grey and fresh water below (near the axle).

Q:  I will be stripping off the original and additional coat of paint from the interior
skin.  Any recommendation of what to use to strip off the layers of paint?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
