ID Model and Year by Serial Number?

Post by keyman »

Hey folks!
I posted this in the "Introductions" section as well.
I'm new to the site. I'm cleaning up a T21 that my parents own. They are of an age now where they no longer use it. I am trying to decide if I want to purchase it myself or get it ready for sale. The registration shows it's a '67, but the manufacturer's brochure for '67 shows a Tourist 22' as the closest model to what I think they have. It is a tandem axle and is 21', but the '67 brochure shows the Tourist is only in single axle configuration and it was not an available option for a tandem. I am still trying to locate the title. Is there a resource that can identify the year of manufacture by the serial number?

Thanks for any insight you can offer.

Can you post a picture of the plate, or provide the info?
The 1967 brochure doesn't list a tandem axle option.... we don't have a 1968 brochure, but the 1969 brochure shows that as an option. It will be interesting to see what you have.

If you can get a pic of that ID plate, that would be most helpful.
Is there any other information on that plate?

Thank you for those images. The resources I have available have not led to a definitive conclusion.

I would suggest calling Chuck Cayo... His family built your Avion. Give him a call (keep calling...... you will eventually get him..... when he DOES answer, he'll stay on the phone all day with you if needed!)
When you get an answer to this question, please report back.....
