Welcome !

Most all of the working systems of Airstreams are the same 
as other RV's, and so you don't need to go to an Airstream 
Dealer for those parts. The same is true for repair work. A 
good RV service center can take care of the gas, water and 
electrical systems and the running gear. If you need work on 
the skin, airplane repair shops can be a good resource.

I have also found a lot of parts at auto parts stores, NAPA 
actually has light lenses listed as Airstream parts.

Enjoy your new manual, I read mine from cover to cover twice 
after it came.

And please, replace your old gas furnace, it almost 
certainly has holes and will flat out kill you. Failing 
that, get it inspected by a gas service person.
