You can see the bed platform hinged out and the plywood has been quickly sanded and clear coated to prevent staining and slivers . The next pictures will show the next section which is storage and you will notice the open back where the potty is stored. A picture of…

This post will relive a project of making a camper van for under $1000. As with all of my projects the intent is to show you can do it and not brake the bank.

The vehicle I found was a 1995 dodge caravan, only 2 owners and both used the same repair shop and they showed me all the repairs and maintenance since new . The seller couldn't get it to…

Finally - after shoveling out sand and crap from the desert...my rescued 1959 Kencraft TT will be moving into town for some real help...my auto mechanic pals are letting me put her in the back lot where we can have easier access to tools, supplies and guys who tinker!

I'm restoring a 1972 Open Road Westchester trailer. Any info on where to get any info or any parts would be appreciated. This manufacturer seems to have disappeared around 1975.

I have a 1977 Airstream motor home based on a Chevy P 30 chassis with all four wheel disc barkes. I need a master cylinder gasket. Its not the same gasket or master cylinder typically used on a rear drum set up, Its much larger. the gasket has Bendix 2228633 stamped on it. It measures 6 inches long by 4 inches wide. Very large master cylinder fluid tanks. I can not find it at any big box auto parts stores. Does anyone here have one or a source ?
