    Hello from North Carolina

    You can always make a camper out of the long bed. It should only take 2-3 years and half of your sanity. If not thats ok just don't chop it.

    Old girl put back on active duty

    PB it happens more than you may think. While in the marine infantry, it was easier to understand astrophysics then to get motor T support. On a number of occasions I would load my 1500 chevy pick-up with 1000 lbs of gear. The alternitive was to hump the 10 miles back to the barracks with all the...

    I got all the side wall panneling back up. Believe it or not the tek foil thickness caused me to have to do a bit more trimming on the pannels. good think I had the floor coated with the raptor liner because I have about a gallon of sweat dripping off of me today. The powder coating is will be...

    I was going to go with herculiner for the treads. Using grating was an idea I thought of bu I was afraid the dogs might get a nail caught in them.

    Lowtec I saved about 5 to 10 lbs on the weight by drilling 3" holes. It doesn't sound like much but I notice the difference.

    Thanks Caliber. Here the pics of the stairs minus a little weight. I like the look much more now. Took them to the powder coating shop this am. I have a few day to work on the fence around the yard now. I should get back to the truck next week.

    Here are a few pics of the steps with new levelers. I went with the Louisville ladder LP-2300 levelers. They are much faster to set up. My favorite boy and poppy helped out.

    good to know for the future 59. I sprayed the rest of the floor on wednesday. I used the tintable raptor liner. A bit more $$ but I decided to let the wife pick a color. I figured even if she hates the color when its done she'll never say a word because she picked it. My plan seems to have...

    Took a look at the herculiner job this morning. I really like the way it turned out,,,, so another change to the custom camper. Instead of rustoleum bronze hammered I am going with herculiner grey. Less change of slipping when it is wet and can just rinse out the inside after the kids and...

    Extreme RV from M36a2

    Got some more done today. I prepped the bathroom and dinnette areas and masked off the rest of the inside. I was going to spray herculiner on the side walls and floor of the bathroom and dinnette areas but the spray system was crap. The stuff in the containers was thicker than tar even after...
