Anyways, he just had put new tires on it and bought a brand new WD hitch and threw that in with the deal. So I basically bought new tires and the WD hitch. Long story short, I could not afford a new camper at the time and am very handy with my tools. Rebuilt the whole thing, new complete roof and joists, floors, gutted the inside, etc... Bought all new appliances and hot water heater, new electrical, plumbing lights, insulation, AC and so on. Took me around 4 months and I have around $4200 in it total. Not bad and I am not in debt for it. This last year I replaced the hubs and springs for a better ride and better breaking. Been on a dozen trips so far with zero problems...Nice work, Chris, that looks better than new!
you did an awesome job on this. it looks better than 99 percent of the new ones rolling off the line.
Ditto! Nice work.
