We have recently acquired this camper...I know that Shasta made an Astroflyte in the early 60's, but not as early as '61 (the year of this trailer). Has anyone ever seen / owned a Northwest Coach like it? I'm beginning to think it is the only one in the universe-LOL!

Speaking of Astrodomes, did Tyler make it over here?

Yes, he did, just not very active right now. My guess is he's building another...

Here's a 65 NW Coach without the dome: And No, I didn't cut the dome!

I found this Northwest coach - has the same paintwork as ours, but no dome. The interior of ours is cool too - all knotty pine...

That looks like it's going to be a really cool project to fix up and clean up! Just keep it away from Vikx and Schweet when you are done!

Wow, check this 64 Cardinal out: Paint pattern is very close. In fact, the Cardinal looks a lot more like your trailer than the NW Coach does...The more I search, the more I think NW Coach and Cardinal were related. I've seen other brands that were; Hanson and Oasis definitely.

Maybe so - I'd think mine was a cardinal after seeing this pic (except that I have the title and it says NW Coach)....

I have a Northwest Coach Cab over. It looks way different than yours. I'm sure mine is a few years newer. I can't find any information at all. Please help if you have any info or links.
