Window seals & hardware for 76 Scamp tilt out windows

[Lee A.]

Oh where do I buy these parts? I need these parts like now. I recently had to take my camper out of the garage and park it outside. I hate to have it outside but I have no other choice.

[Jenny W.]

The first part of the thread has the links to the places I bought each piece. All were online sources. Swisco for the glazing spline and Vintage Trailer Supply - parts and supplies for vintage travel trailers and campers! for the levers and bulb seal. Mike L. used a different lever - I had mine modified - meaning cutting off the bent end. I haven't looked on their website in some time, so maybe there is now something that would work better. The lever slides through the slot in the window frame and then you bend it down (see the pictures early in the thread).

I called the Vintage Trailer Supply and I will take pics tonight and email them so they can send me the correct parts. Thanks for the info

I know this is an old post...but thank you so much!!
I too have a 77 13' scamp and have the old vent windows in front and back. Both leak. Front ones arms were cut off so they cant lock like rear ones...why they did that is beyond me!
I may be headed to machine shop for help.
Thanks again...did not know these 3 panel windows are so rare!
Looking for side vented window. About 24 3/4 wide x 21 high. Not an easy find.

Hi Jenny W.!
Guess what? We just purchased a Scamp with the same windows! The Previous owner told us it is a 1977, I still have to find the VIN on the frame. But anyway, we are super excited about having these awesome windows. Would you know if semigloss latex paint would be ok for the elephant skin?

Nice looking Scamp you have there...
Thanks for your post on window rebuilds,

Jini and Meagan

It really squishes the bulb seal, so I'm confident I won't have any leaks

I had the #614 link levers modified. I'll also take pictures of those as well.

Thanks David! Good luck on your windows! Now that mine work & this is all behind me, I do feel lucky to have something rare.

Wow, I am so impressed and you have answered a LONG question I have had with this! I would LOVE to pick your brain if you are free.... I have been trying to find a way to build a porch/cover for my wagon, but from what I am seeing here, it looks like I could just try and do a cover like you have! Brilliant and beautiful! Bravo!!!
