The outfit I was with is "Ultimate Airstreams" here in OR. Not sure if they're still in business.

So far, the only rot I've seen is in the front where I pictured it. I'm going to rip out that piece today and get a new one cut and installed. I'm not equipped in any way to remove the body from the frame right now and really not interested in doing it. Also not interested in modding the trailer but to each their own.
I may reach out to you when I run into speed bumps, if that's ok.
