Archie..............The quality shows in your work. Your pictures scream "Handcrafted". Thank you for all the pictures as they will be a tremendous help and inspiration to me when I start on mine. I will be working from the outside in only because of this:

With the quality of rebuilds you guys have set the bar very high. I will definitely be relying on your experience. I know my CO has some hidden dry rot but my plan is to try and salvage the interior ash plywood and work from the outside. Second step tonight was to get it off my...

It has been in the dry since arriving in Missouri and will stay inside until completely resealed and leak proof. We have on average 33 inches of rain per year, not a great environment for RV's sitting outside. I have a question on the CO section. I have yet to find a picture of a CO that...

Here is a pic of the staining around the back vent and a pic of the front vent which looks good.

Hi Rusty, yes this is the one from Pueblo. I did not see any holes from the hail I believe the leaks are from poor maintenance and the sealants around the vents degrading. I already am looking for jacks and will definitely add them to all four corners. This was my first experience with two...

Can't find a S/N however the manufacturing label shows Ft Lupton

No longer on the market but now sitting on my truck! Hi I am new to this forum and have been following and learning for some time. I have owned a couple of truck campers through the years and still have a real-lite 1999 camper we still enjoy and use often. I finally pulled the trigger on...
