Making Progress!


We have made some progress over the last month!  The camper now has a sturdy structure.  The floor is completely tied in.  The skirting around the bottom is just about done. The wheel wells have been rebuilt. We added additional support off the frame in the back to reinforce the back corners of the camper...and, maybe most exciting of all, we dry fitted the siding on the drivers side of the camper!  It seems like ages ago since we backed out each rotten screw one by one, labeling each piece of siding as it came off, and cleaned it! It is looking more and more like home with each day we work on it! Loving this project!

They had to be backed out from inside and then turned the rest

It is all going on really well... I could not resist
helping in this stage even though I had the flu...
It was to exciting to miss out on and I think it would
make anyone smile to see the siding going back
on there home and dream!  

Well it is all dry fitted and it looks great!!
