https://denver.craigslist.org/rvs/d/four-wheel-pop-up-slide-in/6608959514.html If you've got the right truck, this seems a good deal and will save someone a lot of work. Almost wish I had a truck bed to put this one on.

I'll be giving serious consideration to the smaller Webber Q for outdoor cooking and baking. https://www.weber.com/US/en/grills/gas-grills/q-series/

I had some trouble viewing the video on that page. Here's another simple video that shows the line. Pretty wild to see it on a globe vs a map.

Thank you. Looks like I have a starter project to get comfortable on the Singer with.

I believe you can use a walking foot with the 500a. From what I've learned recently about the 500a, it can handle the jandle. One person I spoke with was sewing 3 layers of 500d Cordura, plus additional material with no problems.

I believe I've located the awning hardware: https://www.sailrite.com/Awning-Track-Aluminum-96 Here's an interesting way of putting up this style of awning solo:

Recently I noticed what looks to be hardware for what I guess is some style of awning. It runs from about the passenger side above the beginning of the overcab all the way to the rear of the camper. There is no hardware like this on the driver's side. Does anyone know what style of awning this...

To the right of the fridge (driver's side of the camper) was the stove and then the sink. Both of these seem to be serviceable and in ok condition. The stove will need some cleaning up, but nothing som CLR can't handle. There were some other stoves I have been considering, but it's hard to get...

The furnace was also removed today. It's old (obviously), heavy, and takes up a good bit of space. I was going to see about checking out its functionality, but there are smaller, lighter options that will probably do the trick and won't keep me wondering if they're going to burst into flames at...

That's a lot of solid info for that propane tank. Thank you. Ironically, it's one thing I didn't really touch earlier today when I was out getting serious about gutting the inside. Work has been pretty hectic the past couple months, so I wanted to take as much out as I could to make up for...

Mine is a little older, but the ID plate is on the rear, to the right of the door. Should be an aluminum plate riveted to the camper.

Jealous of everyone with a garage! Keep up the good work.

Is there any knowledge out there about this propane tank? It seems to be in good order, but getting blown up while cooking isn't how I want to go out. At least not in this context.

Someone has asked via PM for a link to the ratcheting post I use to hold up the roof while working. Here it is in case anyone else is interested. https://www.lowes.com/pd/CargoSmart-40-70In-Adjustable-Ratcheting-Cargo-Bar/1000029077

Man, time has flown while being busy at work. My apologies for not getting you these dimensions earlier. This isn't the prettiest sketch, but it should have all the info. I have some time this weekend to put into the FWC, so I should have some better pictures to accompany later on.

Another great video. Thanks for sharing progress and making me feel bad about the lack of my own! Keep up the good work.

As a member of the FBIG50 club and someone who also just bought an old Keystone, I'm looking forward to more of your posts. It's been said before, but a lot of the restoration projects aren't as bad as they might look from the beginning. If you do it yourself, or find someone to complete the...

Sweet rig. I really like the panorama view of the inside. Nice work.

This is super helpful. Thanks.

Tim, I've seen your work and it has helped me a lot in figuring/planning things out. Thank you for that. You're right about this not being as expensive as one might think. I wouldn't want to pay for someone else's labor, but that would take a lot of the fun out as well. It really is a fun process.

PIP, I can do that. The next time I'm in the back I'll try to get some better pictures and measurements for you. Old Crow, I'll try to keep track of things that might be of interest. With all the things wrong with this camper, it still has the original manual. I plan to get images of that...

Thanks, Craig. This one has a 3 burner, furnace, sink, and the compartment on the passenger side was for a toilet and maaaaybe a shower, can't tell. I'm considering one, but that depends on how ambitious I get. An instant hot water unit on the outside is too easy, but we'll see. All the...

Sweet lovin'. Thanks for the pointers. ------------------------------------------- It should probably be pointed out that, due to certain circumstances, almost the entirety of this project takes place in a parking lot, with limited tools and space. Storage of materials consists of the truck cab...

Before anything else, this forum has been a treasure of information about restoring and remodeling older FWD campers. Thanks to everyone that has taken the time to upload and share their findings and progress. It's already been a tremendous help. Some of you will have already seen this Keystone...
