1979 Minnie Winnie Window help

I have a 1979 Minnie Winnie
It came with the side 3 pane window which is 64" X 23" removed.
The windows and frame are included but the gaskets are not there, so does someone have a 79 with this size window, I would very much appreciate pictures of how and where gaskets are so I can rebuild it?
There is no-where that I could find, with any information.
Or any link to a service manual.

Thank You for any help.

I tried to find the exact video but had no luck, but here is the title to the project:


TheEndlessAdventure


you may have to watch a few but if you just cursor the video just look for them working in their garage.

This is the name of the guys videos: TheEndlessAdventure may have to watch them to find. I could not find the exact one as I normally watch on the tv not the computer.


Maybe this will help?

Thanks for the lead but I have a middle fixed window and a slider on each side
The jalousy window is not the same.
I have the two sliders in I just need to know how to set the fixed window in and with what type of gaskets.

As an FYI, there are no service manuals published for any RV. Not for brand new RVs, nor 40-yr old RVs.

Have you considered just replacing the window with current replacements?

I referenced the videos as most rvs of that time had the jalousy windows as they have. I also included the link for classic parts, they may be able to help you. If you have the gasket/frame then the window will probably install like a car windshield. Check with a local glass house who should be able to help/advise on its installation

In an effort to keep cost down I was trying to just repair the window but if it comes to replacing thanks for the link.

I have found lots of window gasket supplies, I just dont know what gaskets to use.

I really do appreciate all your help though.
