Anyone recommend a repair person Eureka, Ca?
I have a rip in my skin, and so far no luck finding someone to repair it (patch not replace), and some awning screw repair.
Has anyone from this area found anyone to work on these beauties?

You might call the Airstream Dealer in Eugene, Oregon (likely the nearest to you...) and they may be able to help you or suggest someone if you are in or near Eureka, CA. Your repair may or maynot be rather costly depending on where the "rip" is and how large it is...
You might post a photo of the repair you are interested in having fixed... might help folks make better suggestions. Many with older A/S make the repairs themselves.
Good luck.

take it to the airport behind the toyota dealership and ask around! It ain't brain surgury any airplane guy can apply a patch! heck they could even make a fancy one , for that matter almost any sheet metal (heat and air) shop could do something to keep out the weather.
there's also an airport in McKinleyville just a few clicks north of Eureka.
or PM sequaiacoast, she lives there and could probably offer more info-her hubby is a pretty savvy fellow- so is she!!

There is no Willow Fair, it is Eureka CA
This airstream has all the receipts from being repaired at Inland RV, I put Willow Fair when I first registered = have not changed it yet.
I live in Eureka CA, the trailer use to live near Inland RV, the Swansons owned it down near you.

Will do!
Yreka, Im pulling it up to the Rranch in June, there it will live for a while!
Thanks for the tips on the airport guys. I have tried the heater and sheet metal guys, they said they do not have the right type of thickness of aluminum...I will pm the person you suggested, thanks all.
