Good new/ used parts store

[RVMike]

Found a guy in Corona, Ca called Walts RV. He buys inventory from dealers and manufacturers. There are over 1800 windows in stock and anything else you can think of. One area had at least 500 doors and panels. The only problem is nothing is inventoried so you must dig.They also do service and are affordable. Had a 42x21 window installed, not replaced for $280.

Too bad there's not a place like that somewhere in the Northeast.

In the new one he has things in sections but no inventory control, still have to dig

"I agree......the old location was a gold mine...... "

Yes it was but.........what a mess! It was the most disorganized, scattered, random collection of rv parts imaginable! There were doors and windows stacked like cordwood, electrical components piled on tables, seats and beds toilets and curtains scattered everywhere. Stuff in rooms with no apparent organization at all. And, no one really knew where to find what you need. It was sort of fun wandering about looking for treasure. I can't imagine how the move to the new location was accomplished. Bob

There's a link.

based on the prices in the link supplied its expensive??I thought this was a used and semi obsolete (nos) center where they bought out old stocks etc on obsolete items etc and sold at discounts

There is also a great new/used RV salvage yard in Marsing ID just a few miles from Boise for those in the Northwest.

For sure places like Walts have good values if you are willing to dig/look. For those who frequent Quartzite, AZ Gamblers RV has a tent out back that is similar. It's filled with a little bit of used everything for the RV but only open during the winter season.

I was just there last week looking for a storage bay door. They had probably 1000 but not the one I needed. Amazing what was there, like a candy store. If I was going to build or customize something from scratch this is a place I would frequent.

No pic's, Got the blueprint of the wall from Winnebago and there are no studs where the window was installed. It was just a foam wall.
