Hello,
Does anybody know what model of Thetford toilet came in a 1966 Tradewind? We need to buy some parts for the original toilet, but cannot read the model number on the toilet.

1956 30' Sovereign of the Road
1963 16' Bambi

Hi Tammy,
The Vintage Airstream Club website has the manual for a 1966 Overlander. I would venture to guess the Tradewind that year wasn't much different. On page 44 of the PDF document it says, "The toilet in your Airstream is a Thetford Slide-o-Matic, designed expressly for travel trailers." But that's about all it says.
my '67 has the original Thedford toilet and I found all the parts to completely rebuild it at my local Ace hardware store. I bought the parts about 3 months ago,cost about 150 bucks for every moving part.
