In a perfect world we'd have drag data for both the Papoose and Airstream,and we could predict with certainty,the outcome of such a modification.
The Airstreams are so valuable that you'd want to have a high confidence of the outcome before you took an air nibbler to that beautiful sheet aluminum.

If you had a plaster cast of the Airstream forebody,you could layup a composite nose and then fabricate the new aft-body from there.
Sell the Airstream intact to finance the materials for the rest of the project materials.

Are there wrecking lots with damaged Airstream and Argossy trailers?
