It's amazing! Keep up the good work. Onthe siding, do you have enough to lap the joint where you cut it?

Also, when I showed these photos to my wife she just said "that Judy must be one amazing women, I would have killed you when you brought it home" :)

Cooperhawk , we where just up in Your neck of the woods a couple of weeks ago , an aunt and uncle had a 50th anniv. party in Roseville in the Cities .

Well, when you get the MH done and come this way again, we have courtesy parking here in our woods.  Thirty Amp and water.

Well , just an update , got the skin on the drivers side but haven`t gotten much else done . The passenger side is not as bad but it has rot behind the window so I`m going to have to rebuild that side all the way back to the walk in door . My brother with all the fancy tools and shop is camping (ironically) for the next week , he said I was welcome to the equipment but "Man Law" #37 says "Even if he says You can use his shop while he`s gone , You should just wait until he`s back" . So I`m taking a little break but hope to be camping by the end of July {pronounced August} .

See Ya Later ,
Dan

Can't wait to see the results. This has been a very inspirational project. I've sent links to this post to about ten people in the RV Business I know and none of them can believe the scope of the project - and more importantly - the results you are getting. One emailed me back and said you're only a pole barn away from becoming your very own RV Manufacturer.

Ok , all that is missing are a few pieces of trim , the wiper assembly , and a few odds and ends . The sheet metal is pretty beat up in spots and it still needs a good scrub down . I have the back duals off for new used (freebie , thanks Chad ) rubber, the Michelins that are on it only have about 3-4000 miles on them but are dry rotted .
