I've had my new to me Foretravel for a little over twelve hours now and need to start spending money. The bath tub/shower accordion door is missing. The opening is 29" x 57".
The smallest I can find is 36" wide that includes the door frame. Can the door itself be cut down?
This coach has not been on the road for 6 or 7 years so lots of things need looking after. It did make the 411 mile trip to my place with no problems, but the carburetor is coming off to be rebuilt and the banks headers need new gaskets and and the list goes on.
I'm still a very happy camper. ;D
Michael, if the carb is the old Motorcraft, take it to a good carb shop and ask the for the correct Holley replacement,as for the headers,buy the best gaskets you can find,I would call Summit Racing or Jegs and ask them what is best for your application, also ask about header bolts to replace the studs in the heads and you should be good to go.
PPL has a pretty good reputation. They have a 36 x75 door. May work "as is" or you might be able to remove some pleats: RV Shower Doors - Folding (Pleated) for Sale - PPL Motor Homes (http://www.pplmotorhomes.com/parts/rv-pumps-water/rv-shower-doors.htm)
Congratulations on the coach.
Totally uninformed opinion follows:
I have not seen this particular door but does the less width matter if it's a folding door? The pleats will just be closer together when closed? Or am I full of it as usual?

Using the advice of Keith, I order a Irvine 3657SI Ivory Pleated Shower Door 36" x 57" from Amazon. If this doesn't work I have someone to blame. ;D
Just kidding Keith, I ordered it yesterday after doing some searching on web.
I pulled the carburetor today to have it rebuilt by these folks Automotive Repair, Auto Service Shop | Santa Clara, San Jose (http://www.santaclaraautorepair.net/) I've had them do work for in the past and was very satisfied.
Bill, I talked to them about putting on a holley. Their response was, Holley makes this carb for Ford and it's a good one. So don't replace it just rebuild it as it been sitting for years without use. $360 - $380 to rebuild. They Rebuild, Repair, Diagnose and flow test for dependability Your Carburetor.
