Thanks for sharing the photos. It's always fun seeing the "Before" pictures. Yeah its going to be a fun time for me and learning the correct way to replace the panels, frame and subfloor. I have all the drip caps, exterior lights, emblems. I have done some research on the propane, plumbing and electrical for this trailer. The window are in working condition they just need to be cleaned, polished and replace to gaskets and seals. The skin is in rough shape from hail damage but we are going to replace the skin next year with tax return money. So we are going to rebuild and repair the interior now and then replace the skin next year. |

It appears that You have a very nice project coming up there.
I ordered new roofing and siding for My camper, based on 12 foot long. It came to just barely over two thousand including shiping from Hemet California. Thats just to give You an idea of the cost of that part of the restoration.

Yes I have watched Larry's complete video series in his Shasta and the de ville. I am going to buy the manual next week. I have a much better idea of what I am getting myself into. My father in law is doing the same thing to a 1957 Kenskill so we are able to help each other out in certain areas |

Wow, nice Deluxe, clbell!
Needs some work for sure but worth the effort. Be careful doing too much "gutting" for now, and check the sills and skirt boards for severe rot. They can be pretty "powdery" if you get my drift....
We look forward to enjoying your build.
