jamesa You can start by locating the vin on the tongue, in one of two places. I can then tell you when and where your Shasta Compact was produced.

We recently bought a Shasta Compact - V-13642 OR it may be V-18642? We can't tell if it's an 8 or a 3! As far as I have been able to research, it looks like it's a 1963, from shape and configuration- from Goshen Indiana? It was really hard to find our VIN- removing the old gas bottle was our biggest hold up! I can provide pics of the trailer and VIN. (If I am doing this wrong, so sorry! Please, somebody tell me!)

Ross hi,
I’m new to this and trying to work out how to use I site to its fullest. I have 2 Shasta’s but did not have title with either when I got them. The first one is a Compact # on toung rail is SC625 or S6625 second digest is not very clear it was built in Columbia SC. We have been able to get a new title for the compact after having a new vin# assigned but we had to go off what we were told by last owner for year. The other one is stamped P851 built in Leola Pennsylvania. I think it maybe a 1500 but not sure. I have posted pictures with my other thread not sure how to move them to this one any help would be helpful. I haven’t gotten a title for the second one yet but would like to do that before starting work on it.

I have what I believe is a 1969 Shasta Loflyte that was manufactured in Columbia SC. The serial number is S2712. How can I be sure it is a 1969. Thanks for any help.

Hello everyone,
Newest member to this very cool site. I am a retired Marine and I am a Member of the Marine Corps League and we have a 1976 Shasta trailer that we have used for years to prepare food at events. Our trailer jack recently failed and I have been tasked with trying to find a replacement. The only information I have is from the State of WI registration. It is listed as a 1976 Shasta VIN # A01I009070. I am trying to figure out the model number so I can order an appropriate replacement jack. I have tried to run the VIN on several sites with no success. Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated. I am glad this task has fallen in my lap because it has opened my eyes to some history about the trailer & Camper Industries. Thanks to you all.

Welcome Marc. Almost any RV shop should be able to help you. Just take the trailer by the shop and they can fix you right up.
Jacks weren't brand specific, nor is it necessary to have an exact replacement, just get the right jack that will handle the weight of your trailer.

I have a Shasta LoFlyte with no title. I was told it was a 1969 but maybe not. The VIN number is P11370. So from PA but what year? Thanks!!
Update: Checked the back of the mirror and it said this Shasta was indeed made in Leola, PA in July 1967. So she's an early Loflyte!

Ross - Can you please help me with the VIN # of my recently purchased Shasta Astrodome which is listed as P1813 on the Connecticut Registration. Based on your previous posts I think this may be missing a number, but hope not since I don't have the trailer on my property yet to find the VIN myself. PO said he thought it was a 1963, but it is listed as a 1964 on the reg. CT doesn't require a title for "used" camp trailers "if previously registered in Connecticut and the GVWR is 3,000 lbs. or less - only proof of CT registration is required".
I appreciate your help!

Adding 11/6/18: This Astrodome has an aluminum screen door and the date on the sink is stenciled with "7/30/63 FED". There is no mirror.

Hello! I have what has been titled as a 1960 Shasta AirFlyte. The VIN is V64xx. I know that it was manufactured in Goshen, Indiana. I'm questioning whether it is a 1960. I have seen some others that make me question this, but I really don't know. Mostly curious to know if 1960 is correct.
Editing to add: It has an aluminum screen door.
I should add that the underside of the sink is stamped June 1960. I have not looked behind the mirror.
Also adding: Previous owner had to request a title when they purchased this Shasta. They said the original owner seemed to be pretty knowledgeable, but still, they had to request a title.
So … I also wonder if it is truly an AirFlyte, or is it something like a 1500? What are the differences?
