Hi everybody,
my name is Rainer from cologne/germany. I own a 30" camelot doublebed buildt in ´79.
I bought it in´98 here in germany and refurbished it from the bottom to the top.
Have been a revconeer member for a while.....
We used it for nearly 10 years till a blown front tire almost costs me and my kids life. So I retired the coach
due to lack of new tires.
After years of searching this (in Europe) unknown tire size (16.5) I recently found a set of
tires in the netherlands and took it home.
So after years of abstinence we decided to get it back on the road. It will take me a while to
refurbish it again after 19 years but I´m confident that it will work. No major issues so far detected.
My only concern is that sliding window lower sealings where the windows are expected to slide in....
mine looking like a not mowed meadow with strange things growing in it. Windows stuck with no chance to move.
Any idea where to get these seals/mouldings?
Best regards from germany
Rainer

Welcome. haven't heard much about that Revcon, and kind of wondered what happened to it. Now we know the rest of the story. Incidentally, Firestone still sells the Transforce in a 16.5". Not sure if the tires could be ordered special from the US or not, it is was a lot of people here use.
Can't give you specific information on the window weather striping, but if you search on the terms "window pile weatherstrip", it will produce the results you are looking for. Ultrafab is one of the suppliers.
