Progress
I thought I would update everyone who has been so helpful on our progress with our new "old" motorhome. The RV has been cleaned from top to bottom. 3 years sitting in a yard had many layers to clean. I have replaced all the trim inserts, window gaskets and glazings. Fixed a broken water line while inspecting the water system. Replaced and or fixed all the lights and fixtures inside and out. Replaced the outside outlets. Rewired the stereo to also play outside. New coach battery. New roof caulking. Next up recoat the rubber roof. This has been a labor of love for past 2 months. I can finally see the end. A big thanks to all the great people on here.

Glad to see that you are having so much fun with this almost daunting task. I know that you will be proud of the result and the best part will be that you will know your unit better than most who get paid to work on them.

Pictures! There's nothing more popular here than before and after photos. Seems everyone loves following a good project.

Im in a similar boat with a 2000 Coachmen Catalina Sport. Glad you are seeing the finish line. Post pics please. I find older Coachmens have a lot of character the new Class Cs lack.
