Meet our new home::1989 Airstream 370LE
Extremely Rare!
Wow, what a stroke of luck! My husband was goofing around on the internet and guess what he found? Yep, a 1989 Airstream 370LE in immaculate condition. It has had two owners, and now us. 45K miles on it and the interior is perfectly Airstream. Mitch said, "Honey do you think you could live in this motorhome for the winter" and I was quick to say "You can't be serious, of course I can". But before the emotional buy we asked the wonderful Rick to look it over and to make sure it is in good working order. He said he would buy it. Well, that was all I needed to hear. So, we bought the coach last Saturday and the closing will be the end of this week or Monday. Can you stand it?
So, I am now free from the cold, snowy winter in Minnesota, which makes my arthritis so bad I can hardly move. We have decided that we will find a RV park in Fredericksburg , TX as I have a lot of friends there and and in Horseshoe Bay and Austin. OMG, I am so excited I am ready to burst. The interior of the coach had the last owners touch but it isn't mine, so I will be changing that. But everything else is fantastic.
Did I mention that in 1989 they only made 15 of these motorhomes. They have Chillig chassie's on them and a very powerful Ford engine and transmission. Fast forward to today and we are the proud owners of the only five units still in use! Wow.
At the end of August is Mitch's birthday and early September is mine. We we decided to drive it my in--laws who live a stones throw from Jackson Center where ALL Airstreams are made. Some of you may recall that I worked with them for at least five years and I got to know everyone there. So, the President + CEO, Bob Wheeler, and I go way back. He would like to see it and so would the entire manufacturing staff. We, of course, will pop in and say hello to them as well.
So, there is always something positive that comes from prayer and meditation. Mitch and I put the vibe out to God through prayer and the result was not what we expected, it was beyond anything we could have ever thought of! How great is that. We can tun around in the mountains
And when I am settled in, I would expect many of my girl friends and family members and my HUSBAND to come and see us. That means, Remy, Jack, Lily and moi. What a kick. Never in my wildest dreams did I think we'd have an Airstream and one that is literally a collectors item.
I will put all the pictures on my FB page so that you can see all the pictures Mitch took.
OH PTL ---just on time. When God wants you to wait on something it is always worth it.
More to come!!! Oh, and we've dubbed it the "The Mobile RockinR Ranch! And as Bob says," Welcome to the tribe". Yay.
OMG I love it.!!!
