Thanks! Glad my thread could be of some help, that was one of the main reasons I documented all my progress, usually I don't take the time to take pics, glad I did this time. As for the coating, I used what I found at my local home depot, this RV roof sealer, Henry Tropi-cool, but I'm sure...

thanks! just keep scouring that craigslist/offer up/facebook marketplace, they do pop up from time to time at good prices

Did some late night arts and crafts with the Skamper tonight, got motivated and decided I wanted to tackle a quickie screen for the door. Went to walmart in search for this "magic mesh" screen Ive heard about to see if I could make it work, but found an adjustable rod style screen kit. Sadly...

Gotcha, yea the foam is def nice in not having to mess around with it, I've only done solo trips with it so far, so it works pretty well for me, guess ill have to see how it is with two people down the road, but single life at the moment so its not a huge concern haha.

Getting ready for the next trip here at the end of next week, heading back to one of my favorite riding spots for a big hare scramble/race event, and where I first took this thing for memorial day up in northern AZ, the Cinders! Lots of awesome riding, dispersed camping, massive hills, nice...

Killer man, glad you got it figured out and I could be of help, it looks good, lmk how it holds up, as I may be doing something similar here soon as well. Also now that I remember, I was gonna ask you about your sleeping platform extension. How much of a difference has it made for your...

thanks!

today I did a thing! Made me a quick awning, nothing to special, but it should keep the sun, and even rain off me. Saw some DIY awnings on here and WTW, so this is my take on it Took some standard coat hangers and screwed them to the roof, hooked a 6x8 heavy duty wally world tarp to it (even...

Thanks! Thats actually a good question on the lighting color, but most likely ill use some sort of LED light bar, so likely white, but I do have a big roll of yellow laminex, so maybe I'll play around with the amber too, we'll see. As per weight, I'm not exactly sure on that per se, but what...

Good times this weekend, this old Skamper continues to surprise me with just how comfortable and awesome it is! The shower I made and the little thetford portapotti I bought made it that much better, I have everything Id ever need now. Def gotta wire up some outside lights, and then figure out...

There's a link to another article at the bottom of the page for the "Final Verdict" on it, they are saying its 37k! Looks like a great lil camper, fully customizable, just too rich for my blood

Thanks man, yea the factory def tried to keep the weight and cost down as much as possible on these, but they are great campers when they are taken care of, or rebuilt in my case lol.

Thanks! Haha I'm sure many, including most of my friends, thought I was crazy too, and I'll admit, I didn't want to put up this thread until I was more or less done with it, as I didn't want to have to abandon it half way through! :LOL: I'm actually glad you chimed in, I saw your thread...

thanks!

A little before and after for ya, what a difference!

thanks!

Got my decals and pin stripping on her last night, looks awesome! I cant believe how much better it looks with just some small touches like new decals, and the ebay seller who made them did a top notch job at replicating the original Skamper logo. Also made a trip to home depot to see if I...

Thanks! And words to live by, I am a craigslist fiend, so finding cheap projects and turning them into my own is a way of life for me Got all the masking tape off, threw the handle back on for the time being, (gonna run some new lights at some point off the button/wiring from the missing...

idk why on my computer its telling me those pics are red Xs, but my phone and everyone elses seems to be working, oh well, anyone lmk if they cant see the pics and ill fix it, if not, enjoy!

The cooler hangs out there when traveling, I put a small lip at the edge of its spot and then run a thick adjustable bungee cord from a mount to both corners of the wall, shes nice and solid. The stove goes up under the bed, and I have to get some pics of it but I used those old trunk nets I...
