Smile Wee Wind Manuf. Date?
Would anyone know what year a Wee Wind with number 3055 would have been made? I want to get a vintage license plate for it and don't want to display the wrong year. Thanks for your help!

Thank you for the article. Looks like number 3055 just brought up the count of Wee Winds manufactured by one! I guess that it must have at least been a 1949 manufacture date.

I noticed that also. The article said only 3054 made. Congrats, you may have the last one produced.

I am currently updating a list of the known pipe frame Airstreams and would love to see photos of your Wee Wind, including the serial number tag, Airstream badge, and windows, to compare with other Wee Winds. Thanks in advance if you can share.
