After that we cut the corner of Utah and on through Wyoming's wild country. We are now at the very nice college town of Fort Collins, Colorado at the Lakeside KOA... a nice KOA. Who would a thunk?! Enjoyed trout fishing this am with great success on the Pudre river up highway 14. Back at the trailer now.
Have you seen the 54 Fageol Bus at the coop about 15 miles outside Port Towsend? Hope you can find it a good home. It's very rare and someone did a very good bus conversion job on it. See it in our Misadventures Blog.
How's the Newell coach?

- We drive a 1973 Newell coach that has been updated with all of the modern conveniences. We drove to Las Vegas and Mesquite, NV twice a year for the better part of 10 years but now try to keep our trips within the state of Washington. Usually, well most always, we try to incorporate our trips around golf as we publish a golf newspaper and can usually play for free.
We live in a community called Cape George near Port Townsend.

Got up to roof level at the weekend and found one of the top market lights was loose ( screws had broken ) and it was sitting proud of the bodywork, not a good idea when there's an inch diameter hole underneath for the wires!!!
Took light right of...
If I were there I could find your leak. But at first look I would automatically suspect that your front window was put in with the factory sealing tape. (its garbage) There is a black butel tape that is commonly used in cars when the winshield is ...
I would pull the window and install new putty tape under the flange. That will also give you a chance to inspect the framing around the window. Also, the edge trim and roof cap seam are very bad for leaking. If you can take the edge trim loose and...
David, that's great! Keep us posted on your upgrades and travels. pat
Hey thanks Pat, so far I am loving it. I drove it about 300 miles home and it drove like a charm. Mileage was even ok for a box on wheels. I'll post more and better pics later.
Ah....that's where one of my big leaks was - near the window. That area flexes A LOT. I had a 73 El Dorado - and loved it. Wish I still had it. Yep. Dry it totally out - under cover/roof if possible. There's some wonderful wood treatment I used (s...
No it's "new" to us, its a 1974 Dodge Sportsman with a Continental body. I have started taking the floor boards out on the top bunk and its very wet. I have found what looks like a hole around the front window and at least one of the top marker/ru...

If it is "New" in the sense it is TOTALLY new, take it back to the dealer. If it is just new to you, and not under warranty you'll be looking for a long time. If it's in your budget take it to an RV place and let them pressurize it/test it. That'l...
You're welcome Gail. I have a dog and worry about cats and other animals accidentally ingesting anything. I also have an autoimmune disease so any kind of chemical treatments really set it off and I end up covered in hives! Ick. The hives I can ha...
Wayne, actually this engine looks really good... from the exterior at least. Are you going to rebuild it or repower? Is so, what's goind in and do you think there will be any challenges hooking up to the exiting tranny, wiring, etc?
