RJ, can you tell me anything or point me to a source for replacement window
hardware for the ' 68 model trailers. I have the curved Corning glass type
windows (four of which have been replaced with Lexan). I need a elevation
rack and the locking clips that pull the window in at the bottom and secure
it.

The '65 GT still had the Hehr 1200 series windows. The '66 had the formed
Corning/Phillips windows.
To which you have, and for repair tips on the '59 to '65 Hehr windows see:
http://vintageairstream.com/rr_topics_windows.html
The good news is that you get the hooks from
http://all-rite.com/hehrwindowparts.html They come in red, but you can
strip the paint off.
The C shape hinge extrusion will have to be duplicated by a welding or
sheet-metal shop.
A November Mfg date may mean that you actually have a '66 Globetrotter as
the model year started in October, just like the automobiles.
