good morning all,
i think i found the perfect set up for me. it will take a little bit of work, not crazy amount but nothing is easy.
The specs are a 2003 22 or 23 foot class c ford E350 v10 with 41000 miles. little back story,
few weeks back we chatting and buddy was telling us about his projects he has going on and not going on, and he gave us the run down of this RV how he got it about 2.5 years ago knowing it need some lamination repair done, but on the drive to his house the other side he was not gonna work on flew apart. damit man, well back to covered storage it goes, and over the last two years or so he gathered up the side paneling and some kits to fix the other delaminating areas, but never got around to fixing. so he was telling us all about that but not saying he wanted to sell, just saying he did not want to do it and should sell it. well i let that fester in my mind the rest of the weekend while we were wheeling and gave him a call and here is the deal that i ended up with.
Everything as far as i can tell works, truck AC and roof AC all the gauges for the rv and truck, it will need some cleaning and a new bed but dam this is legit. my rig is light, 4k and my f150 is dam near the exact same length. so my foot print will be the same. that makes me happy.
we are pulling the sides off over the cab, that where all the delamination has happened. deleting the two side windows and adding some more strength with aluminum studs and gussets.
the first post is before starting working ,
