Hi, all:
Please see the link to photos of the tear-down and rebuild of my 1971 Shasta Compact that I purchased in February 2012. They are in somewhat random order (I ran out of energy to better organize them after figuring how to use Photobucket).
As purchased, it was a monument to bad paint, bad carpentry, and the ravages of rot.
It is now functional, sound from a woodworking perspective, pretty on the inside (where it counts, after all), and leak free.
At 6'6" and 285#, I kind-of put the camper on like a pair of panty hose, rather than entering it as would a normal person. Still, it is comfortable if I sleep on the diagonal, and mind the ceiling clearance when moving about within.
Best wishes,
Pod
