Pop-up Junk yard ???

I have a Rockwood pop-up that some friendly critters entered this spring.

Before I knew they got in (chewed through the plastic door covering the lift
jack) they had chewed up a good portion of the canvas. Luckily they left the
bed cushions be.

I had heard that there is an RV junkyard in Ohio or Indiana that salvaged old
pop-ups for parts.

My needs are:
1) canvas, both slide outs are badly damaged
2) replacement plastic door (initial break in spot)

I've been looking all over, but can't find an Rv salvage yard.

Does anybody know if such a place exists? If so, please enlighten me.

I know I can purchase new canvas for it, most places want about $800 for that,
but what about the door? And being cheap by nature, I'd like a used canvas in
good condition if available. :-)

Any help is appreciated.
