1972 Argosy with tornado damage. Help!

The front and rear corner panels are damaged. Where is our best option to get replacement panels or have the work done? We live near Amarillo, Tx.

The back also has damage similar to this photo, but it is on the upper corner. The rear window is broken out also.

Paul Maymeux in Ft Worth. He's a master vintage Airstream Tech/restorer and also the 2nd VP of VAC. You might google him for phone and address or get it from the VAC.

Paul and Ann (A&P Vintage Trailer Works) are closer to Decatur than Fort Worth, though coming from Dumas that's a distinction without a difference I suppose.

They do great work, and are good people. I second Antique Pedaler's recommendation, but it's "Mayeux" which (along with the name of their business) will improve the results of your Google search.

Another excellent Texan vintage Airstream craftsman is Lance McEwan of Top's Vintage Trailer Works (Top on AIRforums) if you're willing to wait a while... 'cause my '76 Argosy is next in line there.

In the way of a disclaimer, each of them is a good friend of mine, but I have no financial interest in their businesses, and no reservations of any kind recommending them.
