I found an old Virginia trailer registration card in the trailer this morning while cleaning it out and inspecting the wood rot damage around some of the windows. My trailer is a 1963 and was purchased on July 25, 1963. It appears that is has spent its entire life in Virginia.

I am new to the Forum. We have just bought a Shasta, possibly a 1963. It has a rear side entry door. There is a number on the side of the tongue w/o a letter, 13398. Built in Goshen, Indiana. Thanks for the information.

tcflyfish,

Got your 63' Shasta logged in. Is this the Model that you have, 16 RK? If not, please post a picture of it and we can go from there.

Exterior view.

The stove and sink are indeed along the rear wall of the camper and the fridge is on the door side of the camper.

I do believe that you have a 16 RK, Teresa. Congrats!!

[tcflyfish]

Thanks, Ross. We have found only one other on the Internet like this, so it helps to know the model.
Much appreciated,
Teresa

I have a 1963 Astroflyte/ Vin# was on a little metal plate welded inside inside the tongue area/ Vin is FS 22503 / it is on the pink slip the same way.

[bearhunter720]

I actually have an Astrodome, I have owned Her since 1980 ? I am the 2nd, owner of the unit !! I have not seen anyone else have a Vin@ like this ?

[dawgpound]

You are the third one, now! These were built in Northridge, California.

1963 FS21440 1500?
1963 FS22503 Astroflyte
1964 FS21103-PA3047 1900 Deluxe

Thank you and please post a picture. Would love to see it!

V21290 1966 compact 13' w/ U-shaped dinette setup and orange arrow stripe on exterior

[Redwings]

Ross,
Our '62 16SC has a VIN (on the title and looks like on the tongue) of ES19839 and the door plaque says Northridge, CA. Maybe the ES is really an FS?

[dawgpound]

Thanks ruralroute!!


Redwings, Can you PM me or post a few pictures of the VIN? Sometimes a few pictures taken from different angles can help and you can also make the picture very large, so reading it is made easier.

ES is a California letter for the Shasta VINS, but I don't know what city produced them.

Van Nuys used C, Northridge used FS & GS. The D's & E's I am unsure of, at this time.

[neophyte]

I think we have a 66 1500 vin#V21370 12ft box 15ft to tongue

[dawgpound]

Thank you, neophyte. Your 1500 was built towards the end of 1966.

[dawgpound]

Thank you, neophyte. Your 1500 was built towards the end of 1966 in Indiana.

I have a 71? Compact Vin Stamp S7559 and a Loflyte Vin Stamp S4231, not sure on the year..

Thanks for any info

[hoosierpoet]

Hi, Ross. We are just heading out to pick up our new Airflyte, it is VIN V6955. It's titled as a '61.

[dawgpound]

rbnhd76,

You are correct on the year of your Compact. Your Loflyte was built in 1967.

[sherryedwards]

Hi we just bought a Shasta Compact and are still having trouble dating it. We were told by the seller that it was a 1972, NCDMV thinks maybe 1966. The VIN is S1494. No date on the back of the mirror or under the sink but the VIN is stamped in 2 places on the tongue. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thank you!

[dawgpound]

I sent you a PM.

[lovnvintage]

What year would an airflyte P3421 be? This is another question not the pm'd one. thanks

[dawgpound]

1967 ;D

[hoosierpoet]

Ross, did you see my post from last night? We just bought an Airflyte, VIN V6955. It's titled as a '61.

[dawgpound]

I have your Airflyte logged in, hoosierpoet and you are correct. You have a 61'. Congrats on your new purchase!

[kmlisle]

Thanks for doing this Ross,
I had not looked closely at the title but the Shasta Loflyte advertised as a 1974 that we just bought is actually listed as a 1971 on the title and the vin # is v31097. It is definitely a Loflyte as the original plaque is on the side by the door and it says Loflyte. Can you tell the actual year from your database?

[dawgpound]

Thank you!

Your Loflyte was built in 1970 and probably sold in 1971.

I sent you a PM to show you the other VIN's around your's.
