I found a bucket of parts from the PO and this was in there. The screw holes match up on a hole on the street side, near the front dinette bench area. It says it's a Bargman. Do I need to find a replacement, or can this be glued back together (it's broken in half), cleaned and painted over? It's from our 1958 Shasta Airflyte. Thank you in advance for any input!  |

What fixture was it near? Maybe a cable pass or drain?

Think it is an old Barman shore power outlet.

I agree with Bill. There is one on the 59 I'm working on that is complete I believe. I'll take a look tomorrow and photograph it for you. I will be replacing it with a brand new one from VTS.

Agreed. The "guts" are missing; VTS sells a very nice replacement:  |

Yup, that's it... Here's the inside:  The writing shows where the original 110 wires are inside the wall:  I inserted backers in the wall and glued the panel piece in place:  The backers provide a secure purchase for the inlet. Here's the inside boot and all:  Here's the big view:  The inlet installs easily and looks vintage. They must be painted; I used Rustoleum Hammered Silver. |

You're welcome 58. I did write a book on Vintage Trailer Repair but can't seem to find a reasonable publisher... At this point, I'm toying with the idea of CDs and the buyer can print if they want.
