I got a little more done on the camper today. First, I started by cutting out and removing the cabover wood. It was in pretty bad shape. I'll be replacing it with 3/4" birch ply. After removing the wood, I seen that it would be easier to replace the front lifting panel while the cabover...

Yeah, I'm not too fancy ;), I use whatever seems to work. I am sure there are more suitable adhesives out there for sure.

Thanks everyone. So far it's all been easy going. Now, designing and finishing the interior will be a little fun/challenging. Toad, The passenger side was easy. For the drivers side, I'd really recommend taking apart the cabinets before you cut, just to give you some room. What you can...

Thanks! As far as my finishing skills, I admit, I am no boat builder or fine cabinet maker. I WILL be doing a full rebuild on the interior though. At this point I don't know what floor plan I want to go with exactly. I'm debating on having a fold down side bench, or making that area into a...

I finished up redoing the plumbing and wiring on the drivers side, then I installed new plywood. Now that the frame is narrowed to fit in my truck, I'll be starting on redoing the interior. After that is finished, I'll repair the drivers side aluminum (the previous owner said the camper...

Haa Haa :) Been there and done that, have the pock marks still on my chest to prove it. I can't stand welding overhead, especially in confined areas.

Thanks guys. Not much to to post today. The driver's side is built differently than the passenger's side, so I had to first remove the stove, sink, propane storage are and most of the cabinetry to see what I had to work with. Its a mess. Once that was done, I removed the plywood off the...

Hello everyone. Last week, I bought an '86 FWC Keystone for $675.00. It has some issues, but for the money, I thought it was a decent deal. In this thread I'll document my full rebuild to include narrowing the floor pack for modern trucks, rebuilding the interior, replacing the over cab...

I just picked up an '86 Keystone today for $675.00. It was a base model with just a sink, stove, ice box and heater. I am wondering how hard it would be to replace the ice box with a fridge and also add a water heater. I'd need to make the neccessary access doors on the outside for them as...
