Sunrader Slide in Truck Camper

[Fishing]

Hello all,

Im getting ready to sell my very rare 1979 Sunrader slide in truck camper. It is in very good condition.
Any suggestions on selling price? Im in southern California.

Thank you

Ask at the Toyota motorhome website, they will know, they see a lot of Sunraders.

Selling moulded fiberglass RV rule is simple - ask what did you pay for plus a little more :-)

IMHO, its all about condition and without pictures, its hard to tell. Even with pictures, soft floor, leaks, appliances not all working, there are lots of variables. One person's very good is another person's mediocre, and a third person's excellent.

I can tell you, I've looked at a lot of vintage FG trailers recently all described as excellent, and on a sliding scale I would call them anything from poor with serious damage to good but needing updates and not everything works.

Stored indoors or stored outside?

IMHO, rarity doesn't matter. Buyer will not be a collector. I could see prices from about $2500 to $7500. Guess on my part!

tacomas come with 5 and 6' long beds, tundras generally have 6.5' long beds, and tundras are considerably wider. there's a 1st gen tacoma thats narrower than 2nd/3rd gen tacomas. I'd be hard pressed to see a camper shell that fits all these variations equally well.

1st gen tacomas were new in 1995. tundra was new in 2000. A 1979 camper would not have been made for either of those, rather it fits the /original/ Toyota truck, which was narrower than all of the above.

Your right, it will not fit all the trucks you named equally well.
For example, I had to build a simple wooden structure to give the camper a nice snug fit in my bed which is a 2018 tacoma. I aslo had to make a little plat form to lift it some inches, because the shark fin the new Tacomas have on the roof.

When I am ready to sell I will offer many images and all dimensions so that buyer will have all the information they need to make decisions.

Thank you!

thrifty bill,

Thanks so much for the input and advise!!

I have the new style Tacoma, would you throw in the parts you made to make it fit mine also has a rook rack on top

These Sunraders are awesome, I had one back 15 years. Although great the fridge and stove would constantly need repair, thats okay a small Coleman always did the trick.

I bought mine back 15 years for 1,000.00 from a couple who didn't use it at all. I had to sell it because it I got a new truck. My best guess would be around 1500$. As mentioned being rare doesn't matter to the buyer, they aren't a collector.

JMO I would sell it to a good home, Ive seen a couple of sunrader RV's completely trashed. If you manage to find a SUNRADER rv those are sweet !! Those included a toilet and shower.
