I need the overhead cabinets behind the bath and behind the closet to the rear window. They are about three feet long.

My GMC 260 is a 1974 Canyonlands. I guess that determines the cabinet finish and style. Is this correct?

Anyone have any from a parts coach or from a remodel?

Thanks,
Rick

Yes, it is called a "Fishing Cabinet" and I had some made for resale. They are made of furniture grade plywood-no fiberboard-and come unfinished so that you can stain or paint to match your interior. See my web site for photos-gemrecs.com. Price $300 plus shipping.....Michael Bozardt at GEMRECS 713-373-7775
Price is relatievly high but so is the manufacturing cost.

Your cabinet sounds great But I need the two cabinets on the sides that your cabinet connects to.

Thanks.

I don't have any yet.
The overhead cabinets in the rear bedroom were missing when I bought the coach.

Do you know where I can get some?

We had cabinets that were rotted out. We got lucky and managed to find a new set that had never been used. I would suggest trying to find templates and make some. Many people have made their own cabinets, perhaps they have the plans???.
Hope that has been of some help to you. It is so frustrating
trying to get cabinets for these beasts.

Hello,
Did you get your cabinets sorted out yet ???.

We have a partially damaged 1973 one, that you could use as a template for a new one???. We do live in North Florida tho....

cheers and beers

Rickmike,

I have 2 that I wont be using (making all new ones), they're a dark walnut grain. What grain simulated wood is the your closet module (interior)?

Right now, I don't have a clue on shipping cost.

Thanks for the response.

Could you sent some pictures to dsic@juno.com ?

My wood color isn't the darkest that I have seen, so I would call it medium dark.

I can send you a picture of my wood if you send your email address.
