I wasn't too worried about it either but I was doin it for more piece of mind for the wife. It is a simple step for a little peace in a marriage.

To all those asking about being looked inside. Not that it would be impossible to lock us in but it would be more work than it was worth. I lock the locks on the trailer side of the latches. The only way some one can lock us in is to put another lock on the latch side of the latch and then...

Here are a few more. nothing really of the trailer just a few of the family.

Finally got to use the camper ffor the first time this weekend. I was a little nervous about takin it to a camp ground sense it isn't white and doesn't have an the "curb appeal" that most people look for. They are not like us just remember that. hahaha. I got nothing but compliments from...

Thanks. I liked doin this project and keeping the thread updated. And yes I am a father now. My daughter was born on may 6 at 5:34 pm. She was 7 lbs, 1 oz. Her name is Elliot Madision. When she was about 10 sec old I asked her if she wanted to go for a deuce ride and she smiled...

Got it more or less finished just in time for Aberdeen. Put in carpet in the front half and a linoleum (fake tile) in the back half for the 4 wheeler. I got the new queen sized bed this morning and threw it in there this afternoon too. Before I know it I will be camping with the family. What...

I also got a set of 2 24 volt LED taillights to work with the original lights. I got a set of brackets that are just bolted up under the rear lip of the trailer so they can be taken off at anytime and placed back to normal. I also got the tag finally and got it mounted with a tag light. That...

Got a little more done and finally got a chance to take some pictures. For the most part now the painting is done except for a few touch ups here and there. I need to finish the carpet in the front half and tile in the back. I decided to do it that way so I can put my 4wheeler in the back or...

Finally after the long crappy winter of plowing the butt ton of snow that we got I finally got to work on the camper. I got all the screens repainted and rescreened, the walls have been painted in the sand color from GCI, and I replaced all the quarter round around the top and have the...

Quick update. Got the ceiling painted, lights up, 24v light painted and up, and started paintin the sides. I am going to use the desert tan but the metal pieces on the door latches and the screens are goin to be painted 24087 semigloss. I feel like it is coming together very nicely. What do...

Quick update. Got the ceiling done. All plywood is up and has two fresh coats of paint on it. Thanks to my lovely and pregnant wife. Got 3 out of the 4 lights up but that last one went a little S.N.A.F.U.!!! It should be taken care of this weekend, along with the electric panel, extension cord...

Got the insulation complete and got one sheet of plywood back up. Ran into a problem with rehanging the wood so I have to get some new screws and try it again next weekend. I finally got some pics of the electric and the "spotlight" setup that I made for the lights shining on the ladder when...

Just an update. I Coated the roof with a rubberized roof cement from home depot. It was Henry brand which let me tell you was some sticky, gooey stuff. I used the mesh backing roll that was from the same company on the main seams between panels, and just coated on the rivited joints. Should take...

I was thinking about either one of them or a M820 with hear and A/C already in it. but then the old man gave me a reality check about them havin problems with the expandable sections leaking, the A/C being three phase and stuff like that. so I got the 146 that still leaks and have to redo all...

Update. Got the wiring done to day. Well 98% done anyway. I have to figure out what end I want on the power cord and I need to hang my lights when I get the ceiling done. I am putting QTY. 4, 4' Dual tube fluorescent lights each with toggle chains so the can be operated independently of each...

I was thinkin expndable also but then i had a reality check. I want to stay dry while using it and with moveable sides that are 40 years are that is just asking for a leak one wy or another. I am goin to get my wiring, insulation, plywood, lights, and roof cement tomorrow hopefully. and can...

Here are a few quick shots of it. I have gotten the ceiling out of it already and started to attack the wiring but need some things first. Then to round up some insulation, plywood and paint. Next day I get to work on it I will get some more pics and update my progress.

I saw in the other topis with the redone 146 that the guy used SILVER SEAL to seal his roof up. Do you guys know where i can get that or know of another good prouct out there. i found a bunch of possibles but want something that has a proven track record. Thanks again.

Well got my ceiling torn out tonight and there was a lot of water and stuff up there. A little more than I wanted to see anyway. But oh well thats part of the fun. I am goin to put foam insulation up with finish plywood and a few floreusant (tube) lights and keeping the 24V lights down the...

I recently got a M146 enclosed trailer to pull behind the M818. I am goin to turn it into a "camper". Nothing crazy just a bed, some heat and a/c a little carpet and sanding the floor to do stained hardwood. With the exception of the floor everything will be able to come out to return to...
