Wow! Just Wow! I only recently found his thread and it has taken days to read it all!
I'm working on a repair of my old TT but not a full-on gut and restore as you've done here.
I think it would only be fair to call this a remanufacture. Except, of course, that you have manufactured this trailer far better than the manufacturer ever could have. I'd bet that the current manufacturers don't do that pressure test and would be amazed to see the leaks they would see. I am very very impressed with your skills. I have experience, I have the same tools, I could in no way duplicate your quality with these hands.
Hats off to you, WestEnd.
Mine also has the metal pressure tank. The compressor is bad and I decided to get a demand pump, but I'm not sure that's best. It is the way it's done now...but which is "better"?

If someone should inherit a TT from family or run acosss a vintage TT that needs major work, I hope this thread will give them some inspiration to know that it can be done and show one man's way of tackling things.

You have done one heck of a job with the Hilton. I have always thought of doing the same but after seeing what you have gone through, I now know there is just no way I would. Anyone even thinking of doing it should read this thread to know what they are getting into.
