Mich, I am surprised that the Minnie with the entertainment center has such thin side walls. After seeing your pic, I made a quick trip outside to look at the thickness of mine. My camper came with the bunk up top. My camper has 2" walls on the cabover. I had no idea there was that much difference in the cabover construction between the two types of Class C's.
I have just about all the Eternabond stuff on hand to make a stab at sealing mine. The trim that covers the corners on my cabover will get covered or sealed with Eternabond. Exactly how I do this neatly is still up in the air. I have read a wonderful thread here of some one sealing the corners on an Itasca with 2" Eternabond the applying the trim over the tape. I will try to cover the trim with two pieces of 2" Eternabond. It make look odd to do it this way, but I worry about piercing the tape with a bunch screws. This will probably be the last RV that I buy, and the hope is for this one to last several more years.
My project is on hold for a bit, due to weather.
Can anyone recommend where to buy a really thick, heavy duty silver tarp? My Minnie is covered with a Harbor Freight tarp till the repair starts.

Actually the 2001 is not a Minnie. It's a Sundancer which is a "higher end" Class C with a bunch of upgrades, over a Minnie. What you are seeing in that picture is the front left wing steel frame only. With all the foam and wood and what not, the whole wall is/was probably somewhere around 2".
If you look at the right wing you can get an idea of the thickness, or look at it beside the one that just got the new front wall. Plywood has been placed on the outside of the frame. That was originally foam where the plywood is now. It fit inside the frame and also covered the outside as the plywood does now.
