I just joined the list recently and have already had some questions answered. I don't have a vintage A/S but purchased a 1977 Argosy on May 16th. I had been stored for ten years in Montana. Most systems work well. I noticed in my rear storage there was about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of mud and dirt. I mopped it out. Is that area suppose to drain? Forward of the storage bumper it seems awful dirty under gray & black tanks. Any tips about removing and replacing metal on the under side to clean this area? And finally, The rubber seal on my door and kitchen window is in bad shape. Any recommended sources for replacements and the best way to install.Thanks--- Bruce --- [EMAIL PROTECTED]There wasn't a fancy drain on my 75 Argosy either. The bottom pan just has notches on each end. And they don't drain all that well. You certainly can open up the bottom to clean the area out. Be sure to use a replacement rivet with a wide head when you put it back together. Both the door seal and the window seal are still available through an Airstream dealer. The replacement door seal is not quite the same in that it has a adhesive strip on it rather than having to use contact cement as you will on the window gasket.
