What happened to 'Airstream Classics Inc.'?

They did restorations in Orange, CA and my trailer's PO used them back in 2000. They did a fabulous job on mine and I was wondering what happened to the company or the people who worked there? All my searches lead nowhere...

I believe the place your looking for is:

M.E.L. Trailers
1040 W. Hoover ave.,Orange
714-639-8471

Does all kinds of "silver trailer" restoration work, have been there, had hard time keeping my jaw from dropping on the floor.

Oh my god, I went to the site and looked at their slide show of restorations, my jaw was dropped open for so long, I could have caught flies in my mouth........
I sent them an email, we will see what happens.
Thank you ever so much for a fabulous connection!

Carol

Your welcome.
MEL Trailers is as good as it gets, if you go there, be prepared to have someone catch you if you faint.Seeing the work first hand is better than Disneyland.

Maybe we should think about planning a rally there? After I get over my initial shock, I could use my nursing skills again to triage all the other members who would also be dropping like flies......
