I was wondering if anyone happens to know anything about a 1966 Tradewinds PU Camper.  We bought one last year off some friends of ours, and I can't seem to find anything about that brand.
It was allot of work fixing up, but now I am thankful it is done. Our friends had the canvas replaced, we laid new floor, painted the outdated wood, covered the cushions, and my husband fixed the sink, counter and replaced some of the poles.  Oh I forgot to mention, it was a camper that they took to the races, so I pealed 31 Nascar stickers off the outside! It is a great little camper now for our family.  We spent a week up on the Lake Michigan coast last year. It sure did beat the tent camping we used to do.

I would give Canvas Replacements a call and ask about your camper.

They have been working on pop up since 1957 and stock not only canvas but other parts.

They list Trade Winds on their parts list, so they may have some information on the brand.

Trade Winds campers were made in Manawa, Wisconsin which is a small town about 15 miles from where I live. They have been out of buisness for about 25 years now. There is a window manufacturing company in their building now.
