My name is Earle Fraser and I have a 1974 Cyget 16′ Standard model. I am working on trying to find some company info. Was lucky enough to have some sale brochures, and the owners manual with my trailer. The camper with the rounded door is mine. It is almost all original, save for the tires, and front window. The floor covering is new, but the old stuff is still there. Would love to hear from any other Cygnet owners. My email is earlethesquirrel@gmail.com. I have started a Cygnet group on Facebook so join away !! http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=113776457594&ref=ts

We have a 1975 Cygnet 18-foor 6-sleeper, which we have owned since 1985. Its picture may be seen at www.Flickr.com, then “search” for 1975 Cygnet. Recently a carpenter rebuilt most of the wooden roof framing and rear-end framing. At the same time, I installed new tail light assemblies and some of the clearance lights. I have for sale some new Cygnet parts such as inside and outside door locks, corner handles, door hinges, door retainers, crank handle for legs, etc. Bill, e-mail: doublej@nbnet.nb.ca .
