Go on ebay, there are dealers there that sell stock style 16'' replacement rims . My 1984 rv is on a Ford E350 chassis and it has the stock 16.5'' rims. I found several dealers on ebay that sell stock style 16'' rims for my rv. The rims I found are about $80.00 each. 

If you can, keep checking the thread over there for the continued progress. There probably wont be much progress for the next couple of months ( will do what I can), the weather here is in the low 20`s, with high winds, rain and snow on some days. I have been ordering things that I need for...

I think we are in some what the same situation. My mother is in a care home, and we just found out two days ago that she has lung cancer, and I`m sure it wont end good. I to am new to rv`s, the rv I have now is the first one that I have ever owned, and I am not an expert by any means. I have...

All of us would like a new rv, but how many of us can really afford it ?, I know I cant. I would rather buy a used rv that needs work, and fix it up as time and money allow. And as I have learned, you can`t trust most previous owner, they will say anything to make a sale. Why waste your time...

Most water damage if not caught in time will destroy the over cab bed area of most RV`s. I got lucky, somewhat, in that the front of my rv over the cab area is all fiberglass. I am in the process of rebuilding right now, and did make a few changes in the bed area after looking at some newer...

I bought a 1984 cobra 26' Class B about three months ago, I was told it had a few problems, but not about the extensive water damage in the over cab bed area. I have been in the process of repairing the water damage myself for the past month and a half (I only have weekends to work on it). I am...

As said above, finding all of the hidden screws and staples is a job in it self. Just be patient, and you will eventually get it all a part.

You just need to cut a hole in the storage compartment large enough for the new hatch cover to mount to it, then seal it up real good to prevent water leaks. It should be a real easy job to do.

Get some Goof Off, it will desolve the old baked on glue and decals, and they come right off.

Here is a picture of what I am starting with. http://i810.photobucket.com/albums/zz28/myyota/rv%20001_zps4naw65yt.jpg

I have a 1984 Cobra motorhome with a carbureted 460 engine on a Ford E350 chassis. There is no mechanical fuel pump on the engine at all. There are two fuel tanks and each tank has its own fuel pump, and I am in the same situation as the op, both of my fuel pumps are going bad, and it doesn`t...

I`m new here, I have a 1984 Cobra Motorhome on a Ford E350 chassis, it needs lots of work, but I think part of the adventure is getting everything repaired and back to working order.
