Hi from across the pond, in Portugal

Postby PatxiPt » Mon Jul 13, 2015 5:37 pm

'Evening everyone!

I'm Francisco and live in Lisbon, Portugal.

Right now I'm facing a dilemma with a canned ham I bought, and after reading over and over, I believe I'm in the right hands 8)

Here's a photo of the trailer, an Adria 450D, 4.5m/14.5' of cabin full of hidden lower sidewall and floor rot :x (and 3 cracked windows)

Cheers! :beer:

I replaced alot of rotten framing in a similar looking viscount here in Australia and they are relatively easy to pull apart and put back together.
I'd recommend doing one side at a time if the rots isolated to the sill only, that way you can keep track of the parts and make less of a job for yourself, nice van

Thank you everyone! 8)

I'll open a topic on the Canned Ham section for more info, and possible rebuild. :thinking:
