I've had this old beast almost a decade now but it was in dire need of attention. I had modified it to "fit " my short bed duramax - hence the wood covered compartments on either side. One stores a pair of propane tanks, the other the elec cords as well as the exterior shower related fuel and water hook ups, Under a time and materials budget to accommodate a long late summer expedition, I have eschewed any pretense at fine carpentry, upholstery etc
That said- its kinda coming together... [BTW this Forum is an absolute godsend ]
today I finished the vinyl repair panels at each corner. we hope to get to Nova Scotia so I'll be packing another order of 18oz yinyl/polyester and a can of HH 66- the old vinyl is on its last last legs but still held the glue.
I also installed lifting struts- those PC panels are old military surplus and purty hefty, I got 40" because in a moment of irrational exuberance I envisioned a taller top a la Tim .... really ? I can be nut case....
