Well good luck on getting it all done in 3 months. I have asked Bob [at] Canvas Replacements for clarification on what/how many windows are included.
Have you any source re replacement weatherstripping for the 2 sliding windows on Campster (port and starboard). Mine is baked hard so the windows are inoperative.... --Darrell
I ended up washing mine and getting it clean enough to work again. I had that problem when I first got the Campster.

I think I just have two part windows, now that I think about it- maybe they used to be three-part. Screen, plus zippered flap. Four windows, though, one on each side of the Pop top.

If you google replacement canvas you will find a bunch of popup type canvas makers, I'll bety one of them could fix you up.

I had a Starcraft pop up years ago and had new canvas ends made for it, they worked out great.

At least one person has the model with the bathroom. I don't remember who.

I have used the rope caulk available from RV stores on 25 and 50 foot rolls, the old stuff lasts about 15 years here in the desert. Its often referred to as butyl cord.

http://www.rvwholesalers.com/catalog/butyl...e-13-0880x.html

The chemistry in all honesty has changed over the decades and the stuff actually works better now than then, what that chemistry is now I do not know.

I just took the windows out on mine to strip her down for sanding and it was murder getting it to release after 4 years use, the adhesion was still fantastic considering the heat it must survive.

Did you ever get your campster logo figured out. If so , let me know what happened. I bought a campster yesterday, with a logo so faded it looks like dirt on the paint.

thanks. jimbo

No, but I still have the file which someone else graciously gave me. Pm me your email and I can send it. I have not looked for a place to make it yet but if you find one and get it sett up I would like to possibly get a couple also.
