From Coachmen to Brinks Truck

That's what it seems like, at least the tail end, after replacing some truly rotten framing and perished fiberglass with some steel tube and sheet metal. Got a feeling this is going to be an ongoing process all the way forward.... at least Coachmen used a strong E-350 chassis and a steel tube floor frame. Spent Good Friday and Saturday framing the new back wall up in 1x2" 11ga steel tube and 16ga skin. Still need to cut in window holes to reinstall the two back windows. Took some serious thinking to work out how to tie the bottom to the floor frame and the top to the roof. Won't have to worry about floating grounds for rear lighting now.... or being hit from behind by anything smaller than a dump truck
