Vintage Camper Restoration

Personal

Description

Straight out of High School I took ownership of a 1964 Camper that had been rotting in a field for several years. I completely gutted the interior, and replaced the rotted floor and rotted framing. Cleaned the old roof sealant and resealed all the roof and windows. Framed interior walls and built-ins. Insulated and paneled all walls. Ran 12v/110v Electricalands integrated a solar system to provide off-grid renewable energy. Cut off seized coupler, repaired tongue, welded new couple,r and painted. Repacked the wheel bearings and inspected drum brakes.
