I am looking for a quality chrome tub faucet for my 65 overlander . I have scoured the inter web for a chrome 2 handle w/ a shower hose outlet( like the original)vts used to sell a nice one but seems to be NLA. Thanks, Brian

Unfortunately there are very few tub units with shower hose outlet that I have ever seen. Most are made from cheap plastic and are not very good out of the box. Adapting a residential unit might be your best bet, but it would require a lot of thinking and maybe a lot of work to do it. Best of luck in your quest.

Seems like I've seen one offered at Vintagetrailersupply.com.

I could find one for a reasonable price so I ended up rebuilding the old one. A mom and pop hardware store was able to supply the seals.

Like Vernon, my local ACE Hardware had the seals needed to rebuild the one in my 68.

Well, that is a bit of a problem. I see folks selling parts from old airstream on eBay, try sending them a message!

Thanks for the response, found a new all metal one on plumber surplus . Com for $55, just can't find the " buy it " button! Never had that problem before, especially when it comes to spending money on this trailer!!
