Glad to be back! We grew up in Charlotte and moved to the mountains back in 2001 for a better way of life .Now that our daughters have started their own lives and in different cities, we needed to at least be half way between each of them. Makes it easier to visit!
All the years that we have lived here, not once have we been to the gold mines....go figure....

Hi Ross, I just registered. My name is John and I have purchased a new project. The title that I received states that I have a 1969 Shasta "travel trailer" no Identifier or model name. I believe, from all that I can find online, that its a 17' STARFLYTE. The vin# is P14632, could you help me out and add me to your database? it's not completely ragged out but it is missing quite a few things. I hope to be camping in it this summer. note the word HOPE. Thanks in advance. JP

Thank you, Kirk. I have your Loflyte as a 1968, probably completed mid 1968 in Pennsylvania.
Thank you, JP. I have your Starflyte as being produced in the latter part of 1968 in Pennsylvania and probably sold in 1969.

This is my first of many to come posts. I just picked this baby up and need to figure out what the Vin is and what the model and year are. I sure am looking forward to getting to know all of you. The tag welded on the inside of the tongue is 21539 After a lot of paint stripper and the old scribbling with a pencil on paper over the number trick I got this on the curb side of the tongue rail. FS21539 FA2674 She hasn't been licensed since 87 and the original owner died 5 years ago. I saved it from the guys son who was going to crush it. I live in Washington state 5 miles south of Seattle if there are any other Shasta owners that would like to have a beer and talk shop let me know.
What is it and thanks a bunch.

We just purchased our '69 Shasta on 12 March 2014. The Vin is P13820. How do I go about verifying the age and number of owners. The Vin on our title matches the Vin on the trailer.
Thanks, Barry

Thank you, restoguy. Based on the Vin#, it looks like you have a 1964 Shasta and based on your picture, I agree that you have a 1500. The manufacture's badge, by the entry door (under the grab handle) should say Simi, California? If not, where was your Shasta produced?
Thank you, Barry. Based on your Shasta's VIN#, it was born in the middle of 1968. Probably sold in 1969. Could you post a picture of your Shasta or do you know the model that you have? As for knowing the previous owners........all I track is the Shasta Vin#'s, Models and the Manufacturing Plants. I do not keep any personal info when the Vin's are given to me, not even the person's name who gave it to me. I respect everyone's privacy.
I do advise others, if they know the history of their Shasta, previous owners, States it has lived in, to record that info and keep it in a scrapbook.

Thanks, Barry Hey, Barry, I'd love to chat with you. Please send me a PM if you get a chance. I have a VIN close to yours and wondered what you have and where you are at. 10 (ten) (chris)

Ross thanks correct on California. Which number is the vin. I tried every combo at DMV and none showed up?

The entire number, as you see it, is the VIN#.
Titles may not have been required on your Shasta, way back when and depending on the State. There are a few States that don't require trailers to have titles and years ago, trailers were never issued a title.
