<p>Steve, I just inherited a 1962 Robin Hood. She’s in rough shape. Would love to pick your brain about best practices for her remodel and what surprises I can anticipate! Thanks, Amber</p>

<p>Here is our Robin Hood.</p>
<p></p>
<p>It is really solid on the outside. All the windows, and screens are intact. I did take all the gutters down, and cleaned 50 some years of sealant off of them. reattached them with stainless pan head screws. They looked to good. I have replaced every single exterior slot screw with the stainless screw. Spendy, and I have probably added 20 pounds to the trailers weight.</p>

<p>But it looks to much better. As a note, I have kept every screw, bracket, sink drain, license plate bracket,ect. So if anyone may be in need of those sort of things. I would gladly donate them.</p>

<p>I am shooting for original, but sometimes you gotta pick your battles.</p>

<p>Thanks for the tip Pat. </p>
<p>I will do that. Well I spent the day putting on a new top wind jack. Decided to leave the original jack in place as well. </p>
<p>So the Phoenix is slowly rising!</p>

<p>Thanks again.</p>

<p>Wow! Thanks for the information. Where do you live? It would be fun to trade stories. The one I bought is a 15 ft, built in 1962. It has the original icebox, and stove. The settee cushions are original, as well as the light fixtures. </p>
<p>I am just starting to tear out all the water damaged interior paneling. I have removed all the windows, and resealed those, as well as the roof. The trailer tail lights are a mess. But I do have the original wedding cake taillight lenses. The water tanks…</p>

<p>So please keep in touch. Your voice in the wilderness of travel trailer restoration is welcomed!</p>

All three pups look exceptional. You can tell they spend a lot of time with their two legged companions. Steve you are something else to be licking strange dogs noses though. I look forward to your future posts.
