more updates-- we took off the (really grungy) valances over the kitchen window and door and the cloth toppers for the dinette and I made new ones out of maple and color matched it to the interior. In addition, I made new handles for the door exit-
Before (you can see the valances and toppers in these pics
Here are the results when I was done
As for total costs, we had budgeted $10K for everything.. (get car and RV set for tow, paint inside, new bunks, new br lights, new leds throughout, redo shower, new porcelain toilet, box in bathroom (take out carpet in bath), new dining table, recover cushions, new sofa and chairs, new TV, refurbish counters, renew hardware from gold to nickel, new sinks and faucets, oil change and checkup, tuneup, new slide seals, got AC fixed (new squirrel cage and maintenance)
All together, we're at about $7K so far... (but lots of sweat equity)
Thanks for looking- we're getting there, slowly but surely we are closing in on being done. Next up is a new dining table in maple. Our new captain's chairs and sofa arrive in about 2 weeks.
