Need info on WBCCI number on AS

Hi,

I just recently purchased a 1971 29' Ambassador Airstream.
The numbers on the trailer are 20965.
The trailer has been parked at a trailer site for over 10 yrs, so was wondering if someone had some history on this trailer.

Thanks in advance.

Derek

Chances are it belonged to these folks at some point

1968-1986
Milon & Thelma Murphy
Potsdam NY

They show payment through the Wyoming Unit which would explain the bucking bronco part of your post.

I don't have much info on this one.The number was first issued in 1968 and appears in my 1968 and 1970 directories.

Douglass & Beth Callow
Farmington MI

No caravans listed for this couple in the directories I have.

1992

Number 1992 first appears in the 1958 Directory issued to:
Raymond & Iva Gruber
Marion, OH
They went on the 1959 Mexican Caravan
They were still listed in the 1966 Directory, but not in the 1973 Directory

Does anyone have any info on 22201? This trailer is an 81 so maybe the previous owners are still living.

Thanks

Perry
