  1. When I redid my 83 Sunrader the walls are all over the place When I resealed the large windows I had to wedge everything against my garage to make them seal up real good. I would use a wall if you can to wedge it back to sorta plum if you can then glass in your studs to maintain that shape for you. also while you have it braced add the fir strip to attach your paneling to the wall this will also keep it to a shape of some sort. Good luck .
  2. You could go out and pick up a sewing machine cheap at a thrift store and learn to sew and make your first project some curtains.... I just bought my new curtains at Ollie's outlet on sale for maybe $3 a set and cut them up to fit my Sunrader...A little bit of work for a big pay off and save some $$$$ in the process.. I started sewing making Hammocks to camp in... My machine came from a Goodwill store for $5.99 BTW ....A singer too

  4. I am currently in the process of ripping out everything in my 83 210rkb Sunrader. I am leaving the toilet.... I had a camper without one and will not go back to not having one.... So far with the gutting and buying new items for the coach I have over $1000 in the parts I think and I'll have a few more hundred to go maybe. The repairs so far are all windows removed and resealed All clearance lights removed changed to LED bulbs and resealed New 2 burner stove top New on demand LPG hot water heater new sink and faucet replacing the refrigerator the original was gone and a dorm fridge was put in it.... Needs lpg fridge Gonna build cabinets and new Kitchen along with 2 couches that will turn into a king size bed or close to one.... New vinyl flooring. New Vents one in the bathroom and one where the AC was. window AC unit will be built into the Kitchenette under the cook top and vented out of the back of the coach. Removing the sink in the bathroom and putting a new faucet with out a spigot on it for the shower I am repairing anything that needs attention while it is gutted so I don't have to do it later.... The engine has had a tune up 65000 in the odometer. New clutch, tires. So I am almost done the tear down and will start the build once the Furring strips are glued to the walls where I need them for the new paneling .. I'll' need to purchase more construction adhesive soon along with a sheet of 3/4" plywood for the bed over the cab as the particle board had water damage so that was removed and I will fiberglass the plywood in when I install it.... You pretty much have to be a pretty handy person willing to figure things out and have confidence in operating your tools.... I look forward to seeing your rehab process to your Sunrader... Have FUN
