Valhalla's "Wild Ride"

As our restoration guy Kenny started removing some of the panels from the outside, it became apparent that Valhalla may have had a rough ride somewhere along the way. It appears that the trailer may have rolled over at some point, causing significant damage to the "ribs" that provide support. Kenny knew that there had been some repair work on that side because whoever did the repairs did not use the proper type of rivets which eventually rusted. (Airstream rivets don't rust). The good news is that Kenny has another trailer of similar age from which he can get parts and everything will be corrected. Chauna's grandparents were not the original owners of the trailer, so we don't know if it rolled over on the first owners or her grandparents. Aunt Marilyn, who kept Valhalla on her property for the last 20+ years, may know. (We'll provide an update if we hear any details). Otherwise, it is interesting to see the trailer with the panels removed to get an engineering view of the trailer.
