Did you do the canvas?HughDog said:$200 Bucks! Sweet Deal ! Just got done restoring an 83 Fleet - Best recent project ever! Have fun -
Bought the "moonglow" canvas material from sailrite.com pretty cheap, Also got the screens, velcro & eisenglass, then paid a local place to work off the old canvases as a template.Dobba84 said:Did you do the canvas?
Sweet. Thanks for the site. Did you do the install?HughDog said:Bought the "moonglow" canvas material from sailrite.com pretty cheap, Also got the screens, velcro & eisenglass, then paid a local place to work off the old canvases as a template.
There are several folks on this site that did their own sewing if you want to go that route.
Yea I always feel like there is a better deal out there. But I am stoked with this camper. Only wish the canvas was better. Needs a counter top too.Wandering Sagebrush said:If don’t want to do the canvas and lift panels yourself, and you’re close to Sacramento, talk to the ATC Team. They work on older FWC campers, do really good work, and at reasonable rates.
You got an exceptional deal.
I don’t know enough about it to say 100% yes, but from what you’ve shown in the photos, and what you’ve said, it seems that way. Any rot that’s obvious? How’s the floor pack? Do you see any areas that scream mistreatment? Think there might be broken welds? Mold?Dobba84 said:Do you guys think this camper is in good enough shape to redo? I want honest opinions and not a money pit.
Gut it and redo You'll love the process. It won't be too big of a money pit. I spent about ~3k on my full rebuild. I think you already connected with me on some other media forms but feel free to reach out again with whatever spesific questions you have. Have fun with it and get into it!Dobba84 said:Do you guys think this camper is in good enough shape to redo? I want honest opinions and not a money pit.
