I'm looking for half of a GM built dinette, the front half on the curb side or the rear half on the street side.
Thank you, Hal

If you are talking about the foam cushions on plywood cases, build them. Trivially simple if you have a sabresaw and 3/4" plywood and some hardwood to make cleats. Any upholstery shop can make the covers for the foam cushions.

If you need the "contact paper" that covers them to match your interior, I can't help.

I had to replace the back of one that had been water damaged. I cut it with a table saw. Even the curved part.

I can give you detailed measurements and pictures.

The angle brackets come from your big box store. The angle steel that attaches the back to the aisle side of the base is the only thing you have to get cut to length and holes drilled.

I need the GMC built one that has a metal frame with a handle you pull to fold it flat. I have the rear curb side one that was recently given to me by a fellow GMCer and I'd like to match it for the rest of the dinette/bed. The grandkids will be happy campers (I hope).

Good morning all,..... I have the couch that Hal needs. It is the exact match that came from the coach that he got the other half from. Same upholstery and everstuff. Is anyone coming thru Knoxville, Tenn that could haul it west to New Mexico or maybe close?? I can bring it to Bean Station this weekend, or I can take it to Blaine Merrell's May 18-21 for Eastern States Work Rally.

Can you please send me the pictures and dimensions for the forward dinette? Right now I have a couch/love seat installed instead of front dinette. It is pretty nice but one of these days I'd like to put a dinette back. This way I'll have a more comfortable place for kids to travel up front as well as to put back extra sleeping space.
