Re: 57 Streamline
No, I don't think so. Guess I'll have to check that out. We called the Lady we got it from Mom Ann. My wife and I took care of her for years, she was able to stay in her home with our help up until she died at 95. She always said her and her late husband bought the Streamline new, and it's all original. I always help out older people when they need it. Someday it will be me. At 61 that's not all that far off.Ranchero50 wrote:Pretty cool, glass lenses on the lights?

Re: 57 Streamline
We do go like to go camping. Been a while due to Vicki's health. For the past 2 or 3 years it has been in the back yard as a guest house. I will post some pics of the inside. They are worth a few $$$$$$$, but it is like selling a good looking bump. You have to find the right buyer. 2 years ago before my dad died we gave him the 3 way fridge and put in a straight elec one. I also pulled the chem. toilet and put in a small standard, and plumed everything into our sewer system. I also put a 13,500 BTU A/C on the roof. It had a original small swamp cooler up there, which I saved. When/if we can start camping again we will go with a camper on the 68.

Re: 57 Streamline
Wow! That is in awesome condition. I remember those can openers. Very well taken care of.
Jalousey (sp?) windows are great for summer rains.
Would really look cool being pulled by your bump!
Especially through a classic National Park, like Yellow Stone
BTW: the high end 5th wheels and trailers made today have porcelain toilets. Of course, it takes an F450 or MDT rig to pull one of them.

Re: 57 Streamline
Yes I agree it would look awesome behind the 68 CS. Maybe instead of a camper, we just may do it. Our oldest daughter and her husband will most likely end up with it. One of these days. Her husband is a old Ford Truck lover and so is she. May pass the 68 to them and buy another.Happy_Camper wrote:Wow! That is in awesome condition. I remember those can openers.
