"I would love to know this too. Our 1976 has a damaged cover (from the previous owner) and it is degrading more rapidly now. Would love a source for a new one!"

Three and a half years later, we hit the road in an over-loaded Subaru with our two cats for the mobile life. We have since upgraded our vehicle to something larger that can tow, and purchased a 1978 Red Dale trailer as our tiny home on wheels.
