    I’ve been looking for a new hinge that holds the bunk end roof and wall together since ours keeps falling apart. Does anyone know where I can get two new ones?

    1973 Apache Ramada hard side

    1973 Apache Ramada hard side

    Any advice for us?? We just got the new chains in and it is doing really well!! The only other thing we are having an issue with is the top of the bunk and the window side of the bunk keep falling apart when we break it down. Isn't it supposed to stay together at the hinge?

    1973 Apache Ramada hard side

    We were working on restoring a 1980-ish Palomino pony but realized that we would have to rebuild it from the ground up so we made that into a dump trailer.

We cook and wash dishes outside so when we rebuild we are not putting the "kitchen" back in. We have been talking about maybe a comfy chair and mini fridge type area. (My daughter and I...

    1982 Palomino restoration project

    We bought our camper from a flea market for $300 knowing that the top rear support arm was loose. We replaced the wood in the top and made it secure and started to rebuild the interior when we realized that there was rotten wood in several other places. So we decided to start a complete...

    Patching vs Replacement

    My husband and I have been restoring a 1982 Palomino Pony pop up for a few years now. We have had several life events that have stalled our progress (a now two year old and one on the way!). Our biggest stall now is the canvas. There are several holes and rips in the canvas and the screens...

    [PU] We are repairing a lot of things on our Palomino Pony and the canvas is completely shot! There are holes and rips everywhere. The windows and shades are still good though. Where is the best place to get a replacement? We spoke to a company in WI and they can use the good parts from our...
