      83 Toyota Sunrader tilt top?

      Hi! This may be an obvious question for some of you but ink could use some help identifying what exactly my rv is. It’s registered as a 1983 Toyota Sunrader pop top but it’s not a pop top, it’s a tilt top, I’ve not been able to find a Sunrader that looks like mine. In addition to the tilt top difference, the area over the cab is not big enough for a bed, another thing I can’t find on a Sunrader… the bathroom (unfortunately) is not like Sunraders and is legit just a toilet, (I’d love the wet bath in sunraders, with a water heater too??? Omg dreamy) any ideas what this may be? My best guess is a ranger ez Ryder or a sandtana. Or Am I way off and it’s just a Sunrader that’s not at all common ? Any thoughts would be appreciated

      More importantly, we may have misplaced the sole key to start this thing and getting a replacement key looks like it has the potential to be difficult. I read that Toyota dealerships or locksmiths should be able to do this with a blank key or even the vin. Then I’d read disappointing posts from dealership employees that said they couldn’t make keys that old , others that said they would, and even contradictions about locksmiths too. Anyone know how Incan accomplish this? Thank you!

      Idaho Doug's Sunrader build

      Pulling the heater apart to do some maintenance on it.  Brought it to an RV dealer, hoping he might have some NOS dual wire igniters. Mine works fine, but I want to clean it inside, check for leaks, eliminate the gas on/off switch, lube the fan motor, and carry a spare igniter.  I believe I found one on eBay - will be here next week.  Mine worked just fine before I gutted the Sunrader.  I will clean the glass view port, the burners, put new gaskets on the access plate and igniter, and it should be good for years.  He knows classic Suburban heaters and says the NT12LE is a very solid and dependable model. He gave me valuable suggestions to refurbish it for long term durability.  It's a pretty simple appliance, really.
