bump, price reduction. the camper is now fully gutted instead of partially gutted now.

Hi all, Deciding to sell my mid 90s (94 i think?) FWC Grandby. Posting it here first, then craigslist in a week or so. I've used it for about a year (bought with the truck, i wanted the truck the camper was a gem and a bonus), and its been great. I had big plans for it but I'm just in over my...

Sorry yeah thats important info. I paid almost 4k for the camper (truck camper combo, maybe more like 3k for the camper). Budget is probably around 4k. There are other used ones that pop up from time to time but darn they go fast. I've been on the hunt for maybe 2ish years till I finally got...

I think i'd agree with you if a lot of the build threads here didn't come out so well. I don't think its rocket science, although I'm continually impressed by these threads. I don't have a table saw, I don't have a dozen clamps for gluing, blah blah. I've even seen threads reference "I had a...

I'd love to get Marty and crew to work on it, trust me. But I'm also assessing if I could do the gutting and planning myself and have a welder come in and fix the swiss cheese/add some re-enforcement. A carpenter to make a floorpack to dimension. etc; If I took it to Marty, how does that work...

Hey all, try not to flame me too hard. :) I know I'm not far from Marty and crew, been in touch with them about a rebuild. I'm also really interested in doing it myself, but I just don't own a shop, or alot of these tools; and while I'd love to learn and accumulate, I'm also short on another...

I had an idea this morning, like I used to do on boats. Could I cut out the rot, and then create a "scab" board screwed to the base of the good wood (like you do with drywall patches) to use as a "bowl", for which i could pour/layer fiberglass epoxy resin in as a fill. Then screw another topside...

Saw the first two, those guys are SKILLED! Last link was exactly what I was looking for. I'm going to do that. Looks perfect :)

I just dont have that kind of faith in my ability to wood work, when lacking a table saw and other essential tools for LONG precise cuts, as well as clamps and stuff for glue and nail work. I dunno... its something I've seriously thought about, would be fun to learn, but over time and safely in...

I want to do that, at some point. My fear is two fold. a.) the cost b.) the time, as i have to drive up there for X days. It involves basically gutting the darn thing and starting over.

I do have those pictures, i JUST finished taking it off the truck. Rot seems worse than before. I might hire a woodworking professional to help me with a safe/sturdy patch for now.

See attached pictures. I replaced the outside underside of the rot where it was evident, only now am I finding it inside as I go to remove this bolt (which is seized, yay!)

Thanks for the ideas. I'll get some pictures of the rot as it is probably a little worse than I'm making it sound. I actually did Git-Rot for the under corner where it was basically just the linen-woven type fabric that is above the wood? That probably makes no sense and its sealed up now so I...

Haven't found much via search but if someone can point me to a similar thread I'd be much appreciated I recently bought a 92 Granby, well taken care of for its age with basically 0 rebuild/work done on it. I have master plans for a complete overhaul or perhaps a FWC trip to have them do it...
