1969 Hi Lo Bon Voyage 209 overhaul

What is that line on the counter above your sink leading to the faucet? Don't tell me it's a cut line.

OK, came online to see what progress you have made and how your weekend caping trip went. Pics?

will do, probably taking it for an overnight primitive next saturday, that should tell me if I need to improve on anything.

Make sure you psot some pics while camping so we can see how the unit looks in the real world.

Finished the window trim and installed the sink this evening, still need to do the plumbing, but it's in.

You are driven! Good job.

Painting the window framing, some of it I had to paint in place. Thinking about painting the cabinet hardware to match, the copper doesn't really fit in.

Finally got new rubber on the camper. Found that I towed the camper home with only the hubcap holding the lug nuts on. Just glad I made it. Wheel studs were shot, but it was a good chance to re-grease the bearings and check the status of the brakes. I also cleaned up the padding for the beds and table. I'll eventually reupholster them, as the white vinyl was done poorly but the camper is ready to pull. The interior lights quit working when I re-wired the tow lights, but I'm researching that now.

Nice job, guitarman!

I'd strongly suggest to get some cheap LED panels to fit those light fixtures (actually, I think an E Bay LED panel and adaptor is now cheaper than one of those incandescents). The LED's run cooler and use about 15-20% of what a regular bulb pulls. I have most of mine in Warm White and the color is almost identical to the old bulbs.

Nice job on the countertops, BTW.

Yeah I'm definitely going to switch to LED as the majority of my camping will be boondocking in Wayne National Forest.
