Hi Jon,
Looks like you've got your work cut out for you. Make sure you remove the
lower inside walls before attempting to install your new floor. The
connection between the bottom "C" channel of the wall, floor & the
outriggers is critical to the structure of an Airstream. We are doing jobs
similar to this everyday at my restoration shop. Your rear crossmember also
needs replacement.
Good luck with your project & have fun.
