Hi all, this is my '63 Compact, I have a Scotty which I love but this layout feels a bit more comfortable to me or maybe I am just looking for a change. I love the 10 foot campers. My mom found it for sale on the side of the road and sent it over to me and I brought it home the next day. I bought it without a title but the VIN is clean and I meet with the sheriff next Thursday and by Friday I'll have a title applied for. The majority of the work was re doing all the things the previous flipper "restored" and I use that term loosely. All over the exterior and some of the interior it looks like they had their 3 year old slather caulk over every screw and every seam and corner and didn't even smooth it out and they painted the inside brown. So far I have rebuilt the framing on the front street side corner (from the outside in of course) and rebuilt the kitchen area completely and replaced the two upper rear storage areas with stained wood and added some stained accents to try and offset some of that brown. At this point the interior is basically finished. I have new tail lights and marker lights installed and working and thanks to Larry showing me how to disassemble, strip the paint and acid bath and polish the Jalousie windows which I have done on all four. I installed a new propane system and a second 110v circuit for the AC and built some wings which I think look ok. I am now neck deep in the process of stripping the house paint off of the thing which is coming off fairly easy. I am going to paint it beige on top and yellow on bottom in the classic Shasta layout, thanks for looking Here's some pics the first one I am just playing around while testing out my new awning.
