Rebuilding.....

[xrcris]

Thanks for the tip Rusty, I've used the Krylon plastic paint with success before; for this I think I'll probably borrow some of my son's Testor's model paint.

You can't really tell from the pics, but the plastic is really UV degraded; I'm going to thin some epoxy and put on a couple thin coats to fill the porous plastic and then some bondo to level the imperfections. I'll post some more pics when that's done.

Hi xrcris,

good progress on your rebuilt. I like it very much. For me it is very interesting which different solutions and technics we/you all use while restoring and repairing our campers.

While not as palatial as the other rigs:



It got some use:






and the dog liked it:



Just chucked a block of ice in the fridge for now, so still need to figure that out, but the Mr. Heater worked great. Too bad the weekend ended early with this though:

Do you have a template for the end wall or did you just eyeball it...

There are a few pictures in my gallery regarding venting refrigerator gas in a new installation...it's been working well for almost 10 years now....couple computer fans...some sheet copper and an old refrigerator skin...batta bing.

Nice job BTW.....well done to all who had a hand in it
