In Search of...

[JeffH]

I have recently begun my journey into the world of AirStream and am now hoping someone here may be able to help me.

I am trying to find some manuals, schematics, and / or blueprints for some vintage models that I have recently acquired. Can anyone out there help me by pointing me in the right direction to possibly a website, contact person, or of a place in the Charleston, SC area that may have this information?

Any info. here would be a great help.

Thanks.

From the Vintage Airstream website FAQ's section:

Q: I need an owners and service manual for my Airstream. Where can I get one?
A: The first owners manuals were published in 1964. Prior to that, the owner received a brown envelope containing parts lists and other helpful information on the accessories in his trailer. The VAC has started making these available in the Members Archive section. A service manual with instructions for performing service operations did not exist until 1972.
You can get photocopies of owners manual (1964+) and service manuals (1972-1986) from:

Helen Davis Secretarial Services
PO Box 484 Sidney, OH 45365
(937)492-8885

Prices are about $33 and $70 respectively. After 1986 the Owners Manuals included available service information.

There was not a "Manual" for units oleder then 64. What was provided was information on how to light the appliances water system and wire the tow vehicle. It's about 5 sheets of paper total.

The newer manuals are available from Airstream.

What year Airstream are you searching for documentation on? I have a huge stack of original paperwork that came with my '61.
