New to forum and need help!
I have an airstream Overlander from either Jackson Center, Ohio or Santa Fe Springs, Ca. with these red numbers: 16182 cans someone tell me it’s history?
Also, on the info plate that says it is an Overlander on top is this number: c9fh
And on the bottom has this number: 0268j387
Next, I have numbers on the RVI Plate: 009039
Can someone tell me what all these numbers mean??? Please and FAST!!!
Thanks,

This would be the trailers VIN.
It breaks down to a 1968 Overlander (26 feet).
Made in Jackson Center, Ohio with twin beds.
68Overlander
And, welcome to the forums...

The red numbers were a previous owners Wally Byum club membership number.
Azflycaster is absolutely correct with the trailer ID.
You will need to provide that serial number, if and when you order parts from an Airstream dealer, so that you get the correct parts.

Sorry, but in simple terms, you were told a "story".
Your side windows have square corners. 73 side windows have round corners.
Your Airstream has but one front window. Airstreams from 1969 and newer, have three front windows, except for a couple of exotic newer models.

Ours was sold to us as a '66. However it's titled and registered as a '65. The numbers tell us it was built as a '66 model in October of '65. It can get confusing.

There's probably an 'AP' for that.
