Adding Final Touches to our Newly Restored Airstream!

[@CaptainJacksIsland]

And now it's a Dreamstream 😁

[@Windsingerful]

Oohhh - I love that!

[@Meghanandmatt]

it really is!

[@awilderexistence]

I came across your channel when you first started the airstream and I had just started my own project and have been secretly racing to finish before you guys. You won. Congrats it looks beautiful!

[@Meghanandmatt]

haha to be fair there are two of us! thanks and good luck on the rest of your build let us know if you have any questions!

[@RestoringNumberFour]

WAHOOO Well done guys!! now, figure out how to get it to the UK? hehe, you must be so proud of yourselves, time to RELAXXXXX

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks guys! We’re gonna swap the axles out for inflatable rafts and head over there! See ya in about 6 months depending on the wind 😅

[@zachgrooters]

You two Killed it!!! Proud to say I have watched this whole series multiple times! Maybe cause I started my Argosy rebuild but i still learned what to and not to do!! Thanks and have a Drink and Enjoy now!

[@Meghanandmatt]

thanks! We're definitely taking a well needed rest and enjoying all the hard work. Good luck on your rebuild and hope it goes as smooth as possible! Let me know if you have any questions I'm happy to help however i can 🤙🏻

[@to0muchlove]

so fricking exciting to see the airstream complete!

[@Meghanandmatt]

so exciting! we love it so far

[@drknowalilaboutbabys]

Yes!!!!! Great job you two! Get the rest you need and deserve. I love you guys even more knowing you live a debt free life! Being debt free is tough, rewarding, and teaches patience. Till next time ✌️😎

[@Meghanandmatt]

Yes! Thank you! It’s so tough but worth it!

[@stimmons86]

Debt free!!! That's wassup.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Ahhh yeaaa

[@shannonlassiter4072]

What an amazing accomplishment! You are both so inspiring. Proof that anyone can do anything they want if they put thier heart and soul into it! Can't wait to see some of your travels. Remember, come through Colorado and we'll have some homemade Pho and Vietnamese food for you!

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks so much! We are very proud of our work and excited for the next chapter. We love Vietnamese food so we may have to take you up on that!

[@VMac822]

Enjoy your airstream but as the owner of a 1972 Airstream Argosy I hope you do some travel videos with it at some point. There’s a lot of airstream restoration content on KZbin, but not much for travel of older Airstreams. I tow mine with a 1998 Dodge Culmins 2wd with manual trans and get 15-16 mpg at 65mph.

[@Meghanandmatt]

We definitely will make some travel videos with the airstream when we’re on the road again 🤙🏼

[@VMac822]

@ Sweet! Happy travels. And great job on the reno! One of these days I need to tackle my Argosy. I’ve had it 7 years & used it a bunch and it’s in pretty good shape overall, but it’s original & could definitely use a makeover.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks! Good luck on your renovation when and if you decide to do it!

[@SusanSpangler-i4f]

Love the Airstream. Close to my heart ❤️

[@Meghanandmatt]

we love to hear that! Happy new year!

[@isaacturnerit]

Yall this was a great video! Looks like a massive job !

[@Meghanandmatt]

thanks man! It was a seemingly never-ending grind but it all paid off in the end

[@isaacturnerit]

@ I feel it so hard.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Hell yea

[@jamessmith-t7b]

Very cool that you got it done, looking forward to seeing you use it on some adventures.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks! We’re planning some fun trips soon.

[@phosawelonewolf2886]

💥Happy New Year 🎉 May your year be full of beautiful memories and delightful days.🫶🏼

[@Meghanandmatt]

Happy New Year to you too! We're hoping for plenty of both this year!

[@Windsingerful]

Whoohooooooo🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 On the road you go! Congratulations! What a way to start 2025!

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thank you so much! We're excited for what 2025 has in store

[@lynnefischer3352]

So happy for you guys! I'm glad you have a place to stay and unwind and just rest up. I'm so excited for you! Looks amazing

[@Meghanandmatt]

thank you!

[@rahshedasmith5812]

Congrats!

[@Meghanandmatt]

thanks!

[@almadeckard8360]

Arizona and New Mexico are cold in the winter due to the elevation. Cast iron range top with two burners, Summit CSD2B230 11 1/4"W Electric Radiant Stove w/ (2) Burners - Stainless Steel, 230v/1ph and more on the market.

[@Meghanandmatt]

If we go to AZ we'd be pretty far south like Tucson or Phoenix. Thanks for the recommendation we may eventually replace our induction with something else

[@inspiredclips8245]

Yikes! How did this one get past me!? Very enjoyable to hear more about why you chose things and the questions and answers! You did it and good wisdom to recuperate before strategizing for next steps or locations.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks for the support Laurel! We're getting ready to plan the next adventure!

[@OmegaWalple]

Are you glad you did not rush the build project and finish it in the 3 to 6 months you originally said you wanted to finish it in? I'm looking forward to your next set of travel videos.

[@Meghanandmatt]

we would have liked to finish in less time, but we're very happy to have finished at all lol. Doing things right takes time and we think we did a really good job. We are excited to hit the road after some much needed rest!

[@OmegaWalple]

@Meghanandmatt you 2 did a great job

[@Meghanandmatt]

thanks!

[@brucebelcher4995]

Everything looks great! Congratulations! It was a lot of work.

[@Meghanandmatt]

Thanks for the constant support Bruce!

[@ahonui]

I hope in the future content is "Married Life inside DreamStream"

[@Meghanandmatt]

us too haha

[@lawrenceholbert3529]

Just a Thought, the wood stove looks great and seems to be fitting all of your needs, however that chimney worries me?!? How tall is it from the ground to the cap of the chimney and what is the distance from the roof to the cap? It looks rather high and may get clipped by a low overhang or let's say a gas station awning?!? Also, I'm not seeing any diagonal support cable/stainless wire to reenforce the chimney from wind at freeway speeds or wind gusts at, let's say a camp site?!? Just a thought. All in all, I'd say that the both of you did a heck of a job and deserve a pat on the back!!!!!! An aside, that tow vehicle seems undersized for the trailer, just a 66-year old's opinion, so take it for what it's worth. Be safe in your Travels!!! And oh yah, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

[@Meghanandmatt]

The top 20” inches of chimney plus the cap are removable when we drive and the leftover stack is just slightly taller than the AC. The wood stove company said we shouldn’t need any supports for the extra height when we’re parked up too. But thank you! We’re very glad to be done and excited for what’s next. Happy new year!

[@yachtboy]

Congrats you two! I've been following along as I do a much smaller renovation on my 71 Safari here in Boston. I am set on a composting toilet (already ditched the black tank and plumbed in a huge gray tank!). I know you don't want to talk about it, but is it just the brand you bought, or are you sour on all composting toilets in general? It's not too late for me to shell out a little more on one of those dryflush bag toilets.

[@Meghanandmatt]

We’ve used other composting toilets that work fine, ours is just awful. Whatever you choose make sure it is externally vented. We are going to save up for a replacement composting toilet in the future. Good luck on your build!

[@yachtboy]

@@Meghanandmatt Thanks! What brand was it so I can avoid it?

[@Meghanandmatt]

It’s the cuddy from compocloset
