Sources for RV interiors

I am gonna be installing a weekender type package in a older horse trailer this spring for the BOSS.. we have a larger one, but she wants somethign smaller that she can pull more comfortably..

I am looking at a dinette, fridge, microwave, sink, and some shelving or cabinets......

anybody got a suggestion on parts sources? I've done a couple of google searches and found quite a few sites I can order stuff from but its all more $$ than i had wanted to put into this thing...

There are 2 salvage RV vendors in my area. One on the way to Bolivar and one down by Joplin. I'll have to see if I can find the names and numbers of both places. They part out wrecked RV's.

Thats what I'm looking fer!! Thanks Mike!
Gonna be a real PITA project. 2 horse straight load gooseneck with a 15 foot box, 7 foot tack room( gonna be the LQ) and a small tack area under the mangers.
Rust along the side wall bottoms on both sides of the horse area that needs cut out and replaced, the manger deck needs cut out and replaced and the horse stalls need sand-blasted before I repaint the whole thing,, gonna just rough sand the exterior and call it good..
trying to stay below $1200 on the whole project( except for the fridge)...

Walla, There it is. I still need to work on the 4 horse slant we bought last year. We don't do any extended camping but I would still like to improve on the sleeping quarters a little.

I think I'm going to rhino line the inside lower areas of the horse stalls on my trailer. I did that to the other one and it works pretty good. Right now it has rubber panels down one side and nothing on the other. I'd say it's currently the way Trail Magic sold it.

I have a brand new 3 burner stove with oven and a vent hood i just pulle out of an rv. The burners and stove we're lit long enogh to verify they worked and then I pulled them out. Send me a PM if your interested. I also have all the dinette cushions. They were sat on maybe twice before removal.

There are a bunch of surplus/salvage dealers in the Elkhart, In area. I got a door that retailed $350 for $60 and leather captains chairs for $400 pr.

Thanks! I am not gonna set this up for extended camping, thats what the Bison trailer is for.... this is gonna be for Diane and oen of her gf's to day-trip in , maybe stay one night, but that probably wont happen often.

I dont plan on putting a cook-top in it, Diane wouldnt use it nd theres very little space... I am planning a fridge, a place to sit, a place to wash up and a few cabinets and thats about it...
