In the Workshop: The lads are battling the cold weather to push all of our projects forward – these snaps were taken yesterday before the snow came down here in Somerset.
In the wokshop today: Will and Dejo are hard at work fitting the original interior and vehicle electrics into this Airstream now that the new floor has been laid.
So far this week we’ve visited the 1950′s and the 1970′s and today we’re working on a lovely 1960′s Airstream which has come in for minor repairs and alterations including a good buff up from our resident polisher Dejo.
In the workshop today – this Airstream Caravel has come in for some repairs. It has a dented roof so Will is fitting a restored panel and then Dejo is buffing the whole trailer to a mirror shine. It’s very sunny down here in Somerset today so he has to keep his sunglasses on!
These shots were taken last week when we had all that beautiful sunshine – Dejo was able to give the ‘Lava Lamp’ Airstream a good old polishing while the sun shone on the yard – where has all that lovely weather gone now?
As part of an ongoing series focused on Micro Design, the TV crew came back today to film the progress on some of our Airstream Projects. Here Dejo demonstrates the polishing process: And in this picture our professional carpet fitters are showing the film crew how they are laying new Dalsouple flooring in this Airstream. [...]
Here at ARC we have a new dent removal system. Here you can see Will (above) stretching out the Aluminium before completing the rest of the process. An original panel is removed before a new one is fitted.
