Thank you, it was the definition of escalation! It started as just repairing the headliner and then noticing the dreaded black mold and water damage. Then the wall panels had to come out to repair the ceiling, etc... What started as a repair quickly turned into a complete remodel. It's coming along and I can't wait to post the finished product.

Impressive! ...can't wait to see the finished interior. Thanks for posting the "gutted" photos. They will help me plan future renovation projects.

Finally finished my remodeling of the interior. What started as a bad headliner turned into a full redo. I posted pictures in the gallery of the completed interior. Now it's on to the solar upgrade! Thanks for the help everyone on here!

Tony: that is so amazing!!! I am completely jealous. Really beautiful work. Thanks for posting the photos, and congratulations. I'd love to see it in person sometime. Also, if you want to, ahem, "practice" on another b190...mine could use a facelift!

Wow, thank you for posting the gutted photos and this post just saved me from screwing up my summer 8O I too thought small repair to the headliner and front cab-over windows. Think I will just deal with it until Fall when I can just gut it properly :mrgreen: OK, DOUBLE WOW!!!! Just saw the gallery pics, now that is what an Airstream should look like. Wally would be proud I think!! Love modern lines and simplicity of it, very elegant, but not pretentious, well done sir!! Can't wait to see it in person, my kids live in Ft Collins and I am a CSU alum. Will def look you up when I am in town!!! Such great inspiration!!!! We just got ours home and I am already scheming :)

Thank you! I would love to meet and see other b-190 owners. I'm new to the WBCCI and in the DenCo unit. I haven't meet anyone else at the meetings who are B-190 owners. This summer I'll be attending the mountaindale rally next weekend, the vintage rally July 20th (your rig doesn't have to be vintage) in Gunnison, and the rally in Alma the weekend after vintage. Would love to see other B-190s there!

FoCo, are those Sienna seats up front? If so was it a major fab project to get them installed in place of the Airstream seats? When I had my Sprinter I was eyeballing a set for the cabin, but seeing them up front makes so much sense, they are so comfy!

It wasn't too bad for my set up because I didn't have power seats and the sliders were flat. The challenge was fitting angle iron on the bottom of the seats to give me a flat mounting surface. I am very happy with the new seats and they are very comfortable.
