Another new member from Texas

Recently purchased a new long term restoration and renovation project...a 1984 Itasca Windcruiser. I'm sure I'll be posting on here quite often with a ton of questions!

Welcome from another Texan, but living in Vegas since '85. Originally from just east of you in Mesquite, but came out he on a military reassignment. Ya' got your work cut out for yourself on a restore, but ya' should be able to get all the info or referrals here.

Welcome to the Forum. Sounds like you have a project in hand. It's interesting to see how many older units are being purchased and restored. I think it's great and hope you have a great time with yours. Hope all turns out well and if questions need answering, ask away on here as there is a wealth of knowledge from the folks that contribute. Make sure you keep us updated on the progress. Good Luck, be safe and Happy Motoring!!!

Welcome aboard. Be sure and stop by the Vintage RV section and post some photos of the rig and the process. We love to see other people working.
