Deadlines Make Work Happen Quicker

Well I'm happy to say work is progressing on the reno. The brake magnets have been cleaned on the driver's side, and the new bearings ready to go in. 

Passenger side is done now with new tires and rims. I need to paint the the lug bolts (nope not nuts). 

Another issue we came across was the door. Last season the bottom trim fell off, then this spring the wood in the bottom of the door fell off. Then in the past week the door refused to close. So we took a peek up there and all of the wood frame was rotted. So off came the door yesterday.

Below is the door almost apart.  I plan on replacing the frosted window with glass you can actually see out of. If I want privacy then I'll put up curtains.

Busy Weekend - Things are getting done.

OIts not too much longer until the camper needs to be rolling, and things are progressing very well.  

My Fiancé wire brushed all of the old paint off of the tongue and frame and gave it a nice coat of satin black.

While he was at the task of painting, he also sprayed the inner fendee wells black also before putting the new wheels and tires on.

We now need to find some trim for the edge of the fender wells. I'm really not interested in putting plastic skirts on.

Although I don't have a photo yet, the running lights and brake lights all work now.

So excited! It's road legal now, and I need to get it registered this week. 

The other huge breakthrough is that the tarp is oficially off. One skylight is out, and two more need to be removed to be replaced with new ones before sealing the roof.

Door still needs to be finished, and clear glass needs to be cut for it. But the frame is all ready.

More pictures to come tomorrow.
