Floorplans anyone?

Greetings,

I am a design student who is fascinated with layout and design travel trailers and boats!

Does anyone know where I can get my hands on some floorplans of some of the old airstreams? I like the Caravels, but any and all floorplans will help with my design education.

Thanks so much!

Have you looked at the Vintage Airstream Club site, airstream.net, and RJ Dial's site, vintageairstream.com ?

diva,

this book:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/081...lance&n=283155
has a lot of the vintage floor plans in it. It is a great read, and also very well designed.
