Post the trailer serial number.

From that many answers would be forth coming about a variety of subjects.

If indeed you have a 70 Airstream, the entrance door lock was made by KT Corporation, who is out of business.

The only source for parts for them is from an Airstream dealer.

Be prepared though, when you check on the prices of the repair parts, as that lock sells for several hundreds of dollar.

The replacement parts, for that lock, are very expensive.

If the trailer has not moved for that long a period, there will be many things that will need repairing and/or replacing.
