Hi, we have a dandy 6, late 70s version with brown walls. We have used the tent a few times, but it is in need of some restoration. The canvas is all great, roof is all in tact, inside is great with all furnishing, electrics etc, but some rivets throughout the camper have come undone, therefore the frame holding the sides and roof isnt as study as it should be. The jobs involve welding rivets to straighten the frame, i spoke to our local steel fabricators and they would have done it, so i guess you can go to a local company or to riva dandy who are a specialist.
Also the hinges holding the end sides next to the beds have broken, it still works but they are not hinged to the bottom, again this would require new hinges being welded on. We were going to take the trailer to a welding company for them to redo everything, but with 2 kids under 2 and a new home we just don't have the time to spare to restore to its best. I have loads of photos, please email me if you require as im struggling to upload. We are based in glossop near manchester.
Great opportunity to have a great camper once its given the slight tlc it needs......sad to let it go.
Please feel free to email me with any questions
