Need OEM interior specs

frank_a · 05-18-2011, 05:27 PM

I'm hoping that maybe somebody that has an original Sunspot could help us out with some measurements of the interior seats, table, and how they all work together. I have a blank slate to work on, but would very much like a couple seats (that converted to a bed) that had a table between them for interior activities.

Any help GREATLY appreciated! Thanks.

I can help with that but it may take me a little while. I just returned from a week in the great town of Morris, MN and have got a bunch of writing to finish on this visit. I leave for Alaska on the 31st of this month so I will try my best to get some dimensions and photos up. Sorry I can't do it this weekend but work still pays the bills

I do have both sets of cusions, the table and the table stand. Let me know what else you need.

That would be great. I have made up some plans, but would very much like to know how Sunline did seats and a dinette table that convert to a full bed. It's not easy to understand from their old brochures. This is a site I found for table pedestals and bases: RV Furniture pedestal table legs, bases

We just got Spot last Saturday, and it won't be till Sunday I can "play" with it. I have a number or projects for it planned, and have plenty to keep me occupied for a while. This week I removed the hubs and over the last couple days have cleaned them like new and just put on three coats of paint tonight. Once I pack the bearings and re-install them I can get the trailer out of my little pole barn over to my shop. I can't get it in my shop, it's too tall, but all my tools are there. I may start a re-wire of it this weekend. I need to clean some stuff out of it, and take some measurments. It's a clean slate to build in, so any suggestions you have on how OEM could be improved would be appreciated too.

I take it you travel and write as a job. What do you write about and for who?

Thanks!

Frank,
It appears I will not have time to dig everything out before I have to leave. Check out

Meet Dot. She is on the Facebook Sunlinine Club and she has a Sunspot that is a little more original than any of mine. She has a dandy. Check her out and her pictures. She has great pictures of the interior with cushions and table. If you are not a Facebook member, maybe Jon can help introduce you two. I will check back in when I return, somewhere around the 16th. Sorry

That is VERY helpful, thank you. Seeing Spot is a "blank canvas", we will probably customize ours so we have two seats facing a table and no galley. That is in part because we already have a lot of camp cook "stuff", and will retain that set-up and add it to our camp.

Really, the whole plan is still in consideration.

Thanks again!
