CHRISTMAS WOOD! Green and red go well together. Joking!
Home Depot sells precut studs that come painted red. i think it is done to identify it as precut 92-5//8" vs 96" for 8' lumber.
Well finally some progress on the trailer. I picked up the lumber yesterday from Home Depot.
The weather was great today, 70 degrees! I managed to frame up all the trailer walls as well as the ceiling. I made sure I framed out the opening for the Air Conditioner unit. I had to remove the...
The fact that the outer walls expand out make a camper conversion a bit tricky. You can use it without expanding and get about 8' by 17' room. If you expand it out you end up with a 17' by 14' wide room.
You would need to make all the components in the camper modular and movable. They...

I installed a NAPA muffler to my Deuce last year. I went with a BIG muffler not that skimpy little tube in the beginning of this thread. I cut off the flange connectors and went with stainless steel pipe clamps. As you will see in the pictures there is no heat shield! Heat shield is for...
What do you mean Tim ain't right! He is a hard working member of society who lends a hand to a friend in need. They (Tim and family)happen to be some of the nicest folks we have met here in Louisiana! Tim has a positive attitude and a friendly demeanor. I am glad to call him my friend.
As...
Went out this afternoon and ripped out all the lumber (walls) from the inside of the trailer. The lumber is old and twisted and covered with cement dust! I de-nailed the studs and cut them into 4' pieces to use as palate building material. Now I can properly clean all the cement debris from...
Are the bed liner costings you guys used a 1 part or 2 part coating? The paint store I shop at has a couple of 2 part bed liner coatings. The owner said they are the same as the pros use to line truck beds and hold up much better than the 1 part coatings.
Saturday I arranged with a friend to come over and help patch the holes in the front corners of the trailer. I started early. Now that I looked closely I noticed there was additional damage in the front of the trailer. The spare tire mount had been hit and twisted-puncturing the skin of the...
Thursday the weather was nice out so I decided to start cleaning out the trailer. There were some pieces of lumber nailed to the floor and protruding from the walls. I removed the unneeded lumber and stated to sweep out all the cement dust off the floor. Looks like they were using the trailer...
No it's a M35. Looks like needs new oil pan, and possibly new oil pump. Also need to replace the crushed copper tubing section. There may be some other damage that is not in the photo. AMG would have that fixed in less than an hour! He's a good mechanic.fat lady sings
I decided to utilize the wood studs inside and insulate it with fiberglass insulation and then either drywall or plywood the walls and ceiling. I will install a window A/C unit and use it as a SHIPPING DEPARTMENT for my Ebay sales.
Right now I am using one of the 40 foot shipping containers...
