Where Do I Buy a Vintage Camper Awning?

Are you looking for a vintage camper awning?  I find myself Googling ‘where do I buy a vintage camper awning’ more often than I should.  It really isn’t in the plans or budget at the moment, but I want one.

I am always a fan of using a service or product that is recommended by someone I know, so I’ve been compiling a list of awning companies recommended by people who actually have one.

This list is short.  There are others out there, but these are the names that come up time and time again.  If you don’t believe me, join a few Facebook groups for vintage camper enthusiast.  Search those groups for the word awning and find out what comes up.

I promise you will see these names.  They seem to have a reputation for being the best vintage camper awning creators.

If you have an awning created by one of these companies, please post a photo in the comments!

I also want to point out that Vintage Trailer Supply, Inc. offers awnings as well.  They are very well known and trusted parts supplier.  If you have used one of their awnings, leave a note and let me know what you thought about it!
