[VAC] '64 Furnace Vent
My '64 TW has an INTERNATIONAL OIL COMPANY LPG furnace in it that was
made in St. Louis, MO. The vent measures about 13 1/2" wide X 21"
tall and projects about 2-1/2" from the side of the trailer. It has the
embossed words, "CAUTION HOT" and "REPLACE IF DAMAGED" on it and has
an overall screen-like texture on the aluminum. With the exception of
the vent (which is very badly damaged) the trailer doesn't have a dent
in it....it's in beautiful condition, inside and out!
My question is....is it realistic to think I can find a vent in top
condition to replace
my badly damaged one, or was this furnace only used for a very short
period of time by Airstream? I do believe the furnace was part of the
original equipment put on by them. Any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks.
