Cool Looking for window push arm knobs for 1969 Overlander

I need the small white knobs on the window push arms, haven't been able to find a source yet. We have a 1969 Overlander and I understand that this year was an epic year for changes. Still, I would like to find some, only need 6. Really could use some help.Thanks

Check with Andy at InlandRV, if he does not have it, he'll know a solution. Standard thread connection if memory is correct.

Enjoy,

I'd look around at the usual sources like inlandrv.com and vintagetrailersupply.com. If they don't have them, you may be out of luck for Airstream-specific parts.

From there, you can try online at generic knob suppliers; there are probably several. You can also try your local hardware store; if they don't stock a close match, ask if you can see their catalogs.

Those little white knobs seem like they should be in every hardware store.

But, to my knowledge, they have been obsolete for about 40 years.

Perhaps you could find a salavged out 69 some place.

Sooner or later though, you will probably have to change them all to the 70 type knob, that is still available today, but is now a gray plastic only, with an allen screw for fastening.
