I'm new! Bought a 1983 Lionel pop-up
Hi all, I'm new to owning a trailer and to this forum. I bought a 1983 Lionel pop-up that is in amazing condition but it needs to be renovated. I would post pics but it's not giving me an option to up...

I can't imagine why you would want to replace the drapes. They scream 70's even though it's an '83 model. I'm glad you found a source for the snap tape. Sometimes, just knowing the right term to search for makes ALL the difference in the world. I'm only recently getting into machine sewing and am finding out quickly that the kind of stuff I want to do out in the shop requires an industrial machine. I have my eye on a Sailrite LSZ-1 that might be strong enough. The great thing is you can sew right through that snap tape with a home machine just fine.
That PUP looks great, at least from the images. I am in the process of removing the factory vinyl striping. I finally broke down and bought a heat gun and that made a huge difference. I'm still deciding on what to put back on.
Good luck with it and keep us up to date on the freshening up of that gem.
