Websites for parts?

[Chewymayo]

I know I have seen a topic about where everyone gets their doors, windows, etc. I just cannot find it anywhere. Can anyone lead me in the right direction? I have found a site www.teardroptrailerparts.com, but I am having a heck of a time trying to buy from them.

You have to call Frank up. He's a great resource.

Ok thanks a lot! I’m just trying to shop around as well.

+1 on Frank Bear and Vintage Technologies. I bought most of my major parts for three separate projects from them. Call and talk directly to Frank or his wife (Winnie?) and they usually ship the next day.
They sell quality products and you get what you pay for.

Yes, that's it - Thank You = and being I am of the elderly aged non-computer mind-set - the older I get in age, the "more" anti-computer I have become = I learned one-way of doing something with one computer, only to have to figure out how to do it another way when a newer "updated" system comes along. .... since I am now retired = couldn't care-less about them any longer..... if it works - OK, if not? = oh well .............. Just think, won't be long now before us 'oldies' that did not grow up with these 'things' to start with (like all of the 'youngsters' of today did) will be moving on 'out' of this life, sooner 'now' than later......... was 21year old in 1975, when an "affordable" hand calculator finally came on the market and the 'computer' ("main-frame") was still that "whole end" of our building site (NSA-US ARMY Augsburg, Germany-'eavesdropping' on them E.Germans/Russians 24/7 during the Cold War) the computer "room" was -at- least an acre in size - all vacuum tubes with maintenance personnel working 24/7 keeping it up and running - was always a good place to visit when after making my outside walk around checks to warm-up from the sub-zero temps in the winters there. Wasn't till the eighty's when home computer's finally hit the market and when they did, I had NO interest in them. Late 90's they started installing and requiring us at work to use them = I have been in trouble ever since!!! at least until 2016 when I retired and was able to leave ............ now it's just home use only with what little use I have of them - take care and stay safe out there .............

Yeah I'd consider myself pretty tech minded but lately a lot of new things like social media is starting to be a little... Twisted? Like reinventing things you normally do offline and finding ways to insist you use their app instead... I'm slowly starting to develop a new dream of getting a cabin in the woods and staying there.

But yeah Vintage Technologies seems to have a lot of useful stuff, I wanted to ask them for a weight estimate for their doors but I never got an answer from them.

Marinepaertsdepot.com has some very good stainless steel cabinet hardware. If you get on their email the run all kinds of good sales. I wait for those.

Vintage Technologies , I found them to be a breath of fresh air. No on-line store and they answer the phone. My order shipped the next day.

Thanks to everyone who helped out! Got my major parts for the exterior ordered. Pictures to come shortly.

Just try not to laugh! This is my first go at a camper build! Just kidding constructive criticism always welcome.
