New Owner/Old 16ft Aerolite - Repair Project
I'm a new owner to the RV world, though have been on several trips with the inlaws these past few years in their 21' motorhome. I just bought this little TT, one which needs a lot of TLC for a song...

The floors for that model always had issues, perhaps even a recall/replacement because they were particle board.
I know the floor right at the door and under the sink needs work, as the step is only supported by one side, the rotted side is long gone. I haven't crawled under yet to see how bad..another project.
Hadn't thought of the walls, really hoping to avoid that...the interior is almost perfect/original and really don't want to disturb it, lol. (just some slight water warping on the ceiling in the kitchen, all contained in the first 4' panel.) As long as the roof is water tight, it should prevent any further water damage.
Here's a Q.
It was suggested that perhaps I might want to move the Propane takes out from their cubbie and on to the hitch fork, to gain more storage. (if the storage partition walls were knocked out it would be a passthrough.)... part of me likes it, the other part says keep it original, even if it's almost 20 years old. (it won't be a museum piece, I tinker to much.)
