Yeah she was all original and well preserved on the inside too. Looked like it was used very little and with great care.

That couch-back that becomes an upper bunk is brilliant! What great low-cost, low-tech engineering- I love it.

1984 Vogue 2

Got started on the MH. All systems work well except refer.It works on 12 volt and propane, but not 120 volt. Had shorted heater cartridge and burnt trace on control board. Found heater and board on ebay, awaiting arrival of board. ,should be here Tuesday.
All flooring removed,and bedroom re-floored with Allure Ultra.Still got to run the moulding,hoping to get that done today and be done with bedroom except the curtains,which the wife is making.
Going to try to post pic's again. Making progress,Terry

Love the portholes on the Vogue. One of these spent the winter near us at the RV park at NAS Corpus Christi. Never saw the owner around- perhaps he was a bit of a hermit/ curmudgeon.

Are those batteries paralleled, series paralleled or just connected by a ground cable?

Can't tell, but if they are all paralleled it may not be good for them.
Usually you'll want all of your batteries the same size if they are all are paralleled together.

Coach battery is isolated +, shared ground. The chassis batteries are in parallel. Whaen I bought the thing the guy had the two little batteries in it one for the coach, one for the chassis, so I used them for the chassis, and installed the 8D,(which was what the spec's called for), for the coach.
