    Hey everyone.  I have a 73, 35-ish S.Streak that I picked up last fall. 
I've just recently began to evaluate it's overall condition. It is unbelievably 
well built. I have been reading the archived message boards, particularly 
trying to find out the after market supplier for the closet door latches the 
postings title as the subject...but the boards change subject to wiring pretty 
quick and I couldn't find the answer in any of the existing posts. So, can anyone 
enlighten me?
    I took her out for our first excursion, replacing the tires with 8 ply 
(vs 6) biased, poly, hiway trailer tires. The furnace worked great. but the LP 
guy wants to change out the valves. replacing them with a new gov't approved
valve without any gage. Is there some alternative? I prefer keeping this ol 
ship as "like original" as I can and prefer having the gage. Any help?
    I could really use some info on where to get after market stuff and would 
appreciate any enlightenment from you who have already traveled down this 
path I'm just beginning.
Thanks

Hello Dave,

I'm the new owner of a '67 Silver Streak Safari 20 ft.   It's in great shape
and is very clean and well kept.  You're right, they're very well made.
Mine has the skin all around and under it.   My friend tells me that it
would float!   Almost anyway.  :o)   I don't know much about them, and
couldn't really find much either.   Funny, I came to Oregon from So. Calif.
and had family in El Monte where Silver Streaks were made.   Apparently they
are no longer in business, but really I don't know much about them.   If you
have info., I'd appreciate knowing more about them.   I have the info re:
who owned mine, etc., but nothing really about the Brand.

Hope to learn more about my S. Streak before too much more time passes.
