I own a 1978 Clipper on a Chevy 1 ton chassis. It came with what appears to be a factory installed propane / gas set-up.
I am looking for someone who will simply build me a new flexible line from the tank to the regulator.
You wouldn't think it would be that hard to find. So far not the case.
I am in Santa Rosa CA and keep hitting dead ends.

It's getting more and more difficult to find folks to work on RVs, let alone old ones.
Suggestions:
An independent RV shop or RV mobile mechanic.
A propane installer.
It'd be a drive, but give McColloch's in Sacramento a call at (916) 929-3510. They've been willing to do all work on my clipper's RV portion so far.

Keep Us Informed How You Make Out, And Post So Others Maybe Able To Use Info.

Thanks to everybody who has checked in on this propane line replacement.
What I should have made more clear in the beginning is that this is for the dual fuel system for the engine, LP gas/gasoline. It's all in the wording.
So far I have been in touch with Blue Star gas in Santa Rosa, they are going to look at it and see what they can do. I will check in with Suburban Propane as well.
As I get this sorted out, I will give a full and usable report back.
Long live the Clippers!
i had a shop build one for me here in alaska. but i can build one my seft now, since i have the kit to do it. i don't shop however, shipping is a lot to anywhere in the Contiguous United States from alaska. but https://www.amazon.com/Flex-Tubing-Fittings-Natural-Propane/dp/B00A2FXB8G might help.
I finally had my propane line made up at Blue Flame propane in Santa Rosa CA. 8' for about $120. It works.
