New owners of a 1977 Argosy 28' Trailer

[StephSH]

Hello,
We just purchased an Argosy, and it doesn't have curtains or blinds, so that is one of our first priorities.
Can anyone tell me what kind of curtain clips I need for this model, and about how many?
Thanks
Steph

Depends on what part of the original curtain rail remains and which windows you are needing curtains for. My trailer is a few years older than yours and shorter by 4 foot so I don't have as many windows. My rear and kitchen windows had blinds that we removed and replaced with curtains. These windows had metal cornices at the top that the blinds pulled up into. For those curtains we used velcro fasteners in the cornices and on the top of the curtain. I really like the velcro on the rear window as it is super easy to remove and I don't worry about having obstructed view while towing. For the front and my bedroom windows (mid twin beds) we used the g slides. Vintage Trailer Supply sells "elastic curtain g slides" in packs of 25. We used right at 4 packs.

Thanks for the response [emoji5] I guess I'll have to wait until we pick it up next weekend to even do something as basic as think about curtains, lol.

The wait is killing me...[emoji26]
