  First off thank you for reading, but please don't reply by saying to contact Bear Creek, Canvas Replacements, Popup Parts, or a boat/marine canvas maker. Read the full post. I don't have money for those places right now anyways. Somebody read my post just the day after he threw away some good canvas pieces, so I am trying to expand my request, to other forums and areas in the forum, to catch them before I miss a good opportunity.

  Looking for canvas pieces that fit '80 Coleman Rebel. ANY CONDITION. This can include other years, models, and makes (Coleman or Fleetwood). This can include the models with the double bed in the rear! I can modify your stuff or salvage parts from it.

  I bought an 80 coleman rebel tent trailer and some of the sections of canvas are missing. specifically the rear sleeper wing and the front door/passenger side section.

  I thought maybe somebody might be parting one out or are getting rid of their old torn one because they bought new canvas. i read an old post of somebody that was going to replace theirs because the mice had chewed up holes in them. i would be willing to take that kind of canvas.

  We are using this for a volunteer search and resecue temp and overnight base for searchers, so anything will help until we can afford to buy new canvas someday.

  I have posted in other forums and have had no luck yet. i have contacted Bear Creek Canvas and other canvas suppliers and they pretty much just try to get me to buy a complete set and are not much help. they also said that i needed the old missing pieces anyways to copy/reproduce. we just need something to get us by for now as everything is coming out of my pocket. please do not reply to this post with ideas or other things that take away from what this post is about. all it is about is if you can help us to get some used canvas pieces that will work. if you have some please reply and we can double check measurements and talk about shipping costs. thank you.

  If you have anything, know anybody that does, or know of where i can find them, please let me know.
thank you

update: due to the length of time, i finally opted to buy new canvas. i'm not exactly satisfied with it, but everything is covered.

i am willing to sell the old pieces if anybody is in need of a front double bunk section with front strip for screen door OR the large sink window on dr.side.

beats buying the replacement pieces for so much money.
