Very nice. Is there a way to change the toilet seat or paint it? Kinda throws off a good color scheme.

Never mind. I see you went green in the bathroom.

i should add that we linned all closets and storage under beds in cedar planks,updated the plumbing with pex,added instant hotwater heater, and recoated the floor before we put dwn the laminate, also updated the electric. installed a fantastic fan..----when we got it it had sat in an open field for years ---i was hoping to save the original wood but most was to far gone,,im sure im forgetting some other things we done..lol..oh yea we also redone the original sofa bed to leather..

Hi Bap!

It looks great! Nice work! I agree, looks very homie. Ready to move in.

What is Aunt Marie? A Airstream? Argosy?

Very nice rig, love the vintage units. I was there.

Very nice - I am of the same vintage ('63 birth date) and there is no makeover that would make me look that nice! lol.....

I love the older airstreams - good bones.... You've done a great job balancing new with old.

I am the same vintage also. Graduated from HS in 1963. Great job Bap and Debbie. I like the painted tub but was still hoping you would go for red.
