Nice and looks good! That is one big thing that will need to be done to ours as well is painting the outside.. Moreso just washing the outside .. So I started tearing into the ceiling this week and will continue this weekend and was reprieved to see that the PO had repaired or replaced the joists and added extra support to the roof when he replaced the top with a new solid piece of sheeting! The ceiling hopefully will continue to go smooth and could possibly be done this weekend!

Now here are the final rear restore pictures I took when I finished off the rear repairs and some pictures of starting the ceiling.

1 - The inaugural camp trip at my cousins land after closing all the back up again back in Spring

2 - The camper at its new home, at our new home this past week

3,4 - The ceiling where I have been pulling down the nasty vinyl. Would it be a problem to just use Luan like on the side up here?

Great job on that repair work! did you measure all that before you took it all out for future reference on the new studs? I would think using luan up there would work just fine, I plan to do that myself up front in mine.

Thanks for the pictures it sure helps us see what we will be up against on ours and how it's built.

I am hoping to take ours on a trout fishing/camping trip one more time this year before I dive into our repairs.
