    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West You know you're a geezer when.......................

    When HR hand delivers your retirement packet, unplanned and uninvited..... Happened to me Friday. When the Boy Scouts stop by as part of their Honored Citizens Check in, when it snows. Happened to me this morning. I’m rather confident “Honored” does not mean I’ve done something heroic...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Tie down options

    Yessir, can't tramp the rodeo circuit without a Capri. If anyone is still checking this thread, either a Torklift or Happijac system, maybe a combo. I'm thinking Torklift in the front and Happijac buttons on the rear bumper. Something attached to a hard point, will clear all the bed flairing...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Norcold refrigerator removal

    Never thought of that. In fact I've never even looked at how the counter is attached.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Norcold refrigerator removal

    Mine is the Dometic, but can't imagine it being much different. Mine has 6 or 7 screws around the front flange. Mine has trim around the door opening that needs removed to access the screws. There are two screw tabs on the back that are accessed through the outside service panel. Mine...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Plasti Dip Roof?

    There are threads on here somewhere about people coating with Herculiner(sp), Grizzly Grip, Henry's and the like, but I think you're the first to mention Plasti Dip. Like you wrote, people are doing whole cars with it so why not? The thing that I don't know about is getting it to cover/seal...

    Mid-town Mina, that's funny! My wife is from Vegas, I'll have to remember to stop the next time I make, "the run" south. Thanks for sharing.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West How many nights in 2017?

    Between business and pleasure, 45 nights give or take 2 days. Favorite trip was 6 nights between Steens Mtn. Hart Mtn and the Warners. I read somewhere that a mechanized adventure isn't an adventure till something gets broke. If that's true then I had an adventure as the steering went out on...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West FWC Keystone Roof Help

    I know the thread is a little dated, I'll share for whom ever may find it. ATC can source your canvas and parts. I would assume FWC can too. I say "Assume" because I haven't needed anything since before they changed hands, thus haven't dealt with them lately. The nice thing about ATC is...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West FWC Keystone Roof Help

    Welcome to the Forum from another "Vintage" owner. I guess we don't have signature lines anymore. Mine is a 89 Grandby. The older units really are pretty durable and can be revamped pretty easily. Revamped and they will go on almost forever. The problems you describe are fairly common with...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Please help me decide on which GVW to order...

    Don't worry when in Oregon. #1: recreational vehicles are exempt. #2: Scale requirements don't kick in till 20,000lbs as a general rule.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 110V system, have it or not, use it or not

    My 89 Grandby was built without a 110 system. I sorta have added it via a dedicated charger and cord port for my battery. I have seriously considered running a circuit for the 3 way fridge, yet have not done so. Times when I wish I've had 110 circuits: 1: As others have pointed out...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 1978 FWC New Owner

    Welcome fellow vintage FWC owner. Mine is an 89 Grandby. Nice thing about vintage FWC is you'll get the resto/remod experience with less work and cost than a vintage trailer, car or house. Looking at your overhead floorboard, something to consider when you replace it is the d-bulb gasket mod...

    Coming in from the Catlow Valley side, congratulations on not shaking your camper apart getting to the Headquarters. Back in September that was the worst washboard I've driven in a long time. Congratulations on completing the trip.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West 84 Fleet - 09 Tacoma - Project

    Quality referb. As a fellow "old gen" FWC owner, I applaud you putting forth the effort. I notice the discrete placement of a beer bottle in a few of the frames. I'm slightly envious, because in my life, beer drinking while working leads to a lack of production and maybe over consumption...

    Been to the Playa, been fishing in Alaska. Though not in the same year. Witnessed part the Symbiosis event at Big Summit Prairie this year too. Just put my Fish Cat pontoon boat away. Each has its high points. You will be hard pressed to watch a half nude lady, body painted gold and white...
