Awning/Interior

Post by ben_minor_63 » Fri, 03 Aug 2012, 6:24 pm

Hi. I don't currently own a portafold but i am looking to purchase one soon. I am wanting to know. if i can't get hold of an Original awning what can i use instead, pictures would help. And Also when I get myn I would like to do a 50's rockabilly/rock n roll inspired interior with Marilyn Monroe wall paper etc. How easy is it to change the wall paper and make out the interior. Pictures would help me visualize this.
Thanks for the help
Ben

Ben,

For the best advice and inspiration on interior décor you'd be best off trying to get along to a National Gathering. You'll be blown away by the selection of caravan interiors and it will help you to make your mind up on so many things. It will also save you from making any mistakes that other people have already made.

Either this years show:

Ben, My interior is shown here http://www.portafold.co.uk/forum/viewto ... ?f=9&t=357

you can get material in the style you require and have the seats trimed as required.
I think I bought ours here http://www.endoflinefabrics.co.uk

hope this helps.

cheers
Dan
