We recently purchased a 1980's Pullman which although usable is in need of some update and repair work, both structural and cosmetic so I have started a blog today to post the progress, updates will be posted as we do the work, it's a bit of a first for us "blogging" but we have undertaken lost cause's before with success.

As mentioned we will only be passing out the repair/remake of the canvas and already have had some very varied quotes for this from £550.00 for a repair up to £1500.00 for a remake, with some quotes in between, a lot yes but worth it as we intend to keep the camper for a while.

If the mods don't mind here's a link to the blog;

We have just got a Pullman, fair condition but in need of TLC.

We'll be watching your blog with interest.

Good luck with your work on it!

will follow with intrest one thing you should get alot longer than ten years from new canvas if used in normal way.

i got a 91 cruiser a couple of months ago and the only part of canvas to need replacing was the roof on main cabin rest was all good.A new roof from tvs was 350 and they did a great job.I also had the zip added for a bed skirt at the same time that was 125 but well worth it.

 I will be watching with interest. I have a sitution i brought a pennine pullman 1993 folding camper this year and unfortunately when we folded it down at the end of our summer hoilday we ripped the canvas by accident. We have been give a quote on a new canvas and awning to match but i really don't know whether to get new canvas or look for a another camper.There isnt anything wrong with the base of the camper just its age. We have had a lovely summer in it and my kids love it. What shall i do. HELP.
