The air forums is a good source for info. And sources for parts for the older models.
Like most Porsche dealers , the airstream dealers are more into servicing the newer stuff.

Airforums is the Pelican of the airstream world.
Lots of restorers, and DIY folks there that may be some help in your projects.

Nothing really and the dealer parts dept. I've talked to has been great. It was more a case of trying to get someone in the front of the store to help me ID my old trailer when I was buying it.

I haven't had much time to work on it yet but when I get back to L.A., I'm going to prioritize it in preparation for some trips up the coast later this summer.

When we were bicycling around the island last weekend, I spotted a beautiful AS trailer nestled in the woods on a campsite through the trees. Should have shot a pic, it was a gorgeous setting, like a postcard.

Check out my R V ing thread, I'm heading up the coast eventually to the Puget sound , and then inland if it's not too hot away from the coast.
Having a great trip.

Cheers Rich

hmm, let me see about 30 yrs ago ... I remember my boat had some teak on the windshield and on the swim platform. The exhaust came out under the swim platform. The boat was good in the water not too fast around 50-55 with a 350 chevy mercruiser. CC had just been bought out and the new company was trying to get into the runabout business. They also made this boat in a 30' called a Commander? I sold the boat for a bigger one, Cobalt 260, then a Scarab 30' they were both tanks best boat you can have is a "buddies" boat i bring the beer, food, gas...
