So there are several rebuilds on the LOA forum. Its taking quite a long time for me to read through it all, but once i'm done I will followup with Sleepy and find out why he's not happy with the rebuild. Its somewhat comforting that others are, so that gives me hope.
So far, my thought is not to do a complete rebuild at this point. I definitely need a wing rebuild, probably skirt too. I'm looking at the extent of the photos about completely deskinning the camper and I just dont think I want to do that.
I'm also thinking this is a skill I would like to learn. I've been RV-ing already for almost 30-years and while I've picked up some amazing skills along the way, working with these materials and this type of structural repair is intimidating. But, I do see myself continuing in this life style and if I had the ability to fix and re-skin my camper, well its comforting.
Anyway, thanks a lot to everyone who posted, you've all really helped push me down the road I needed to go. I will continue in sponge mode just absorbing all I can and talking to everyone I can before making any type of decisions. Back to reading for now.... I will keep this thread updated as my project develops. If there's anyone else who wants to share in the meantime, please keep my reading list full.
Happy holidays (and camping).
