New interior panels

Hi,

I am a new airstream owner and in the middle of what has now become a major overhaul. The previous owners were not very kind to the interior panels and now I find that I can not re-use them, does anyone know where I might be able to purchase new interior panels for a 1967?

Many thanks-

The interior panels are called "vinyl clad aluminum".

Airstream has stopped using it, therefore no longer a source of supply for that metal.

Salvage may be an option, maybe someone can post links to check out.

How bad are they, some pictures would help and maybe someone can provide alternatives to replacing them.

Are you trying to match the originals or are you replacing everything?
If you are going all new you can source from almost anywhere. .025 is as thin as you probably want to consider up to about .040 at the heavy end. 5052 is inexpensive if you are painting or 2024-t3 to polish mirror bright. It's yours now, do what you want with it!
