[a/s] Parts 1976 Airstream



OK I now have my Airstream and I see a number of things right off the bat
that need to be addressed. First is the main interior lights/vent. I am sure
when it was new the plastic interior light/vent cover was white, now its
very yellowed and does not let much light through. Also, each of the three
vent covers on top are in need of replacement. They have been patched and it
looks like they could leak but I don't see any evidence of this. One unit
has a fan but the plastic housing around the blades is cracked and breaking
and the fan does not work. Is there a newer version replacement for the
light/vent assembly, or should I try to just replace the old ones with
necessary parts.

Also, if anyone is interested I found in one of the overhead storage
compartments a wealth of orginal information on the 1976 AS including the
brochures on the installed equiptmet, range, fridg, Zip Dee awnings. The AS
material is a big blue book titled 1976 AS Service manual and a silver
owners manual. I would be happy to share this information with the group.
