We created some simple slipcovers for the couch and the dining benches. We painted all the fixtures oiled bronze lightly sanded the brass first. Also a queen size fuzzy blanket is laying on top of the couch. We also removed the old window coverings and replaced with plastic 2 inch Blinds, they do make a bit of noise but we like the look. We also picked up a queen size 12 memory foam mattress, For the bed in back well worth the 200 dollars on Amazon.

Since acquiring her we have been working away. Painted all of the Brass hardware and Oiled Bronze. Changed out all of the old broken Lamp covers with new euro style and Led light bulbs. Repaired the Fridge to run on gas. On the p30 chassis Replaced a frozen brake Caliper and a new brake line which was quite the research effort finally found the right one after buying two that did not fit. Sunsong 2205269 Brake Hose (Chevrolet) is the correct part for the passenger or right side. Fixed the autopark which would not engage consistently when you put it in park by simply lubing the cam that engages the autopark switch. thanks to oldusedbear11
