Currently IM adding new sway bar bushings and rods.....next project is re doing the bathroom......this is so much fun. I retried in March and bought her in July...

WOW! That looks great. Did you do the upholstery yourself or pay someone to do it? Regardless, it looks really nice! Looking forward to more pics of your remodel.

It looks grate.
Looking at it from this angle it looks something like my Rig. only I do not have lights on the wall above the couch in back of the driver seat.
My wife and I covered the rug area with see through plastic to keep it looking nice.
We go on outtings at least every other month and frinds come in a lot to chic- chat that way we do not worry about if their shoes are clean or not.
It helps if you have children runing around.

Yes it is an AC. I also had the valance's done in leather. I searched high and low for her, perfect for me and the wife. She's a 94 Ford Bounder, no slides (exactly what I was looking for)

That's a Coleman roof-mounted AC unit. Standard equipment on early to mid 90's Fleetwood RVs.

Hi there! I have a 1992 Fleetwood Coronado. It's almost identical to the Bounder.

Thats great......this is my first RV, I did my homework for about a year, decided on a used
where I could still do allot of the upkeep myself. I really like the simplicity of this unit and the layout....IM having a blast just doing upgrades....my unit has the Ford 460 in her.
with 100000 mile on her, but well kept with records....

I agree. The Fleetwood RVs from late 80s to mid 90s are no nonsense, easy to maintain, "get you there" rigs. I know everyone is different, but when I'm traveling or camping I don't want to have to worry about power awnings getting stuck open or closed, wall slides not sliding, automatic emergency brakes failing, etc. Keeping it simple and getting where I want to go with minimal stress is top priority for me, lol! Apart from regular maintenance and upkeep, plus a few upgrades here and there, my RV hasn't drained my bank account. (should probably knock on wood, lol) :-)
My Coronado is on the Chevy 464 chassis. It is sturdy and easy to work on just like your Ford chassis. You made a good choice; your research paid off.
Our interior layouts are practically the same. Looking at your picture, my booth is where your kitchen is, and vice versa. I tore out the brown carpeting and replaced with laminate. Also removed that swivel chair by entrance door -- that opened up tons of room, more room for my little dog to play. Am still planning other things, like painting walls and replacing window valances & blinds, but there's no rush. Keeping it slow and easy, hehe.
Please keep us updated with any projects you do on your rig! :-)

Happy Trails!
