    Hi Joe

    I hope you don’t mind me contacting you but Bubba suggested you may be able to help. I’m in the U.K. and have just bought a ‘54 Safari 06027

    I’m trying to track down where it was originally sold (and any other information).

    I’m sure you get a lot of requests like this and I’m sorry to trouble you with it but maybe you could point me in the right direction if you don’t have anything on file?

    Many thanks
    Niall

    Hi Joe - Wondered if you could still look up WBCCI#s? If so, I have ghost numbers for 5060 on my 1955 Bubble. I sure would appreciate any information you could find.

    Hi Joe,

    Are you the one who maintains the vintageairstream.com website? I was on there looking at floorplans and layouts of various '50s Airstreams, and did not see any '58 Pacers that have the same floorplan mine has. So, I thought that in the interest of the historical record, I'd send some photos of mine.

    But the 'Contact Us' link on that site just goes to a generic tech support email, and they couldn't help.

    Who should I send the photos to?

    Hello Joe,

    I posted this question about European caravans and it was suggested that you may know the answer. Did my Airstream go to Europe?

    I also sent the question to <history@wbcci.org>. Not sure if that mail goes to you or not but I found it on an article you wrote about the 1956 European caravan. I apologize if this is a duplication.

    Thanks!

    Greetings! Newbie to the forum and looking for help in potential purchase of 2011 International 23D. Hoping to hire for assistance in assessing value and if this is a good choice. My intention is to live full time in the Airstream next year. I can store it in my brother’s yard and he has an F-150 equipped to tow. He’s also a carpenter and able to make updates to interior. I need to purchase tow vehicle yet. I need to know more about all the things I don’t know to look and ask. I have pages of things to look for and ask about. I also fear that the owner was a smoker and smoked in the rig—can this ever be fully aired out and removed? Any help and insights are very much appreciated! Thank you!

    Hi there. I’m going to look at an airstream tomorrow that has been identified as a 1955 “safari” but based on my research, I don’t think so. I’ll ask the seller for a serial, but he doesn’t have a title but said he’d give me a notarized bill-of-sale. He states the body is 19ft long and the tongue is 3.5ft. I’ll attach the pictures in another comment.

    Joe, Here is a photo of our Serial Number Tag on the camper. It is a 28' International with two twin beds and a pull out in front. The bathroom is in the back. Not sure what else I could add to the notes for this serial number for your research. If you have any questions please let me know.

    Hi Joe, I was told that you are the guy to ask about the history of a WBCCI#. We just bought a 28' 1980 Airstream International. It is our first Airstream and we are looking forward to the airstream life and community. The other day we noticed at one time there was a WBCCI# on the front of the airstream. It was hard to make out but we think it reads 12118. The only history that we have is that it was own by the previous owner in Oklahoma and Colorado. Then it was owned by the previous owner just outside San Antonio, TX. We would really love to know the history of this camper. I hope you can help us out. Thank you
