I have owned a 1991 Flagstaff by Cobra since 1999 and cannot find a manual or any info regarding lift system or roof construction.  Anybody have one I can copy or know where to find one?

yep .. I had one .. a 1992 Flagstaff with an 8 foot box.
Not much i can tell you about the lift system, other than it needed absolutely no service if treated well.  Its fully enclosed in the body of the trailer, with no exposed pullies or wires.  From what I remember I think the whole thing was gear and chain driven ... lovely piece of work.
The big issue with the trailer was the roof.  You have to really look after the roof.  Ensure your cocking is good, and watch the seam down the centre.  I enjoyed mine for 15 years without any major issues.  
It was our families first TT. we had a hard time letting it go last year.
