Final stages, Paint & re-install windows and exterior trims.

Adding the blue
     When we get to this stage we can see the project getting closer to the finish. I think if I were ever to do this again I would have the entire skin cleaned better, perhaps with blasting with a fine grit or something. The old aluminum skin was difficult to clean entirely with stripper and soap and water.



Reinstalling windows
 We used the blue to match the truck the kids use for toeing the trailer.

     Max is busy installing mounting screws around the window flanges.
Max is great helper


Doug is wiring trailer lights.

Rob is wiring up the inverter.





 Doug and Rob are my tech support and completed the trailer wiring for me. Doug install the trailer lights  while Rob hooked up the batteries, inverter and Solar system for charging the batteries.

      Now with all the technical stuff complete, I can hook up the appliance. We installed a new stove because the old one was over 40 years old and repair parts are not available. The refrigerator was still working in both gas and electric modes. We installed a on demand water heater to provide hot showers at remote campsites.
