[VAL] how shiney were the vintage trailers originally

["MK / JS" <sn2244@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just had a look at the vintage Airstream on Arlen and Shirley Manning's
website. http://home.att.net/~globetrotter64/index.htm

Fabulous photos, gorgeous trailer. Fantastic website, too.

Wow - what a beautiful polishing job.

QUESTION - were the trailers as shiney from the factory as the way this one
appears now?

(Note - I am not intending to discredit the Manning's lovely restoration, I
am simply curious about vintage Airstreams)

Thx.
