Our 77 argosy 26 has two slide out couches with second/third edition cushions. Each seat-back has a plywood backing, the bottom cushions do not. Is this how the originals were made, or do I need...

The replacement will have to be used. A new one is worth more than the trailer....$1800. Plus shipping and without a window.

Hitch bars, while serving a very important purpose, are boring. Convertible Caddy tow vehicles are ....cool!! My son asked if I could tow the argosy with my 68 corvette. I like it without the...

Rutroe,
Welcome from another Peachtree City dweller and big fan of TG. I just picked up a 77 Argosy and know what you are going through. I have no expertise to offer but good luck with the resto!

Thanks for all the info. I'll do some tests on the axles and maybe get to together with Aviator and see if I can get by 'as-is' for a year. New Shocks, tires, and bearings are a must. While I was...
