So the po redid all the frame work on our 58 airflyte. After compairing mine to pics on here, it is evident that he or someone else didn't feel like building the curves. So there aren't any... does anyone have a diagram or measurements of how it is supposed to be? I am going to leave it like it is for this hunting season but might look into getting my shapely figure back next year!

I did mine freehand, if you go to my blog(link below) and go to the two oldest post in May, I outlined how I got my curves.

Funny you mention that. I stayed up late last night reading through your restoration/nip tuck thread. You do some nice work! I didn't make it home before dark tonight, so please excuse the glare from my flash light... Here she is The more I look at it the more aggrivated I get... He lobbed off at least 6" front to back and a few inches off the top just to keep from having to make curves. But, it is sealed off good, so it will work like this for a while until I can afford to buy some new skin for it... Which might be a while...

Are you sure the trailer isn't newer than the PO claimed? Looks like a mid 60s to me... Perhaps he got the titles mixed up?

Yeah your trailer should be the newer box style. I think it's a 68 not a 58. Sorry.

Well that actually makes me feel better. The main thing that was bugging me is I am 6'2" and can't stand up strait in the camper. I was fine with that until I thought that he had cut a few inches off the top.
