1983 Scamper Roof Vents

Hey Guys!

New member here, and I need some help fixing up an older trailer!
I bought a 1983, 16 foot Scamper trailer last year, with the intention of taking it out camping off the beaten trails. Its driven over trees, gone pretty much everywhere I could want it to, and has passed the test so its time to do some renovating. Everything wood panel is great but it might be time to update it a little!

Anyways, we had some high winds around my place and it actually ripped the one roof vent off. No big deal, I was going to replace them anyways. However, I'm having a hard time figuring out what kind of vent to get to replace it. Attached are some pictures, any help you guys can provide as far as what to get would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the help!!


EDIT: I can't seem to get the pictures to come up, so I'm just going to post the link to the album on imgur, there should be 4 pictures. I also can't seem to get a clickable link to work for some reason... sorry I can't get them up on here!

    That is the Scamp Owners' Forum. Lots of Scamp specific help there.

    Not sure he has a Scamp (molded fiberglass trailer). I think he means a Skamper.

    Oh. His spelling it as "Scamper" fooled me.

  • That looks like an Elixir vent lid, prior to 1994. Camco makes one it is #40156. You should be able to Google Elixir Vent Lid Prior to 1994 and they run about $17.00 or $18.00. I have a parts and accessory catalog from an RV dealer and they are listed in that. Many RV dealers with big parts inventories have free catalogs.
