That looks fabulous. I agree, your windows are safest in the wall. Good work.

:applause:

Some more stuff done.

The bed frame/storage is complete.

And the door is hung, but not yet complete.
I like the plywood screwed on door handle, the wife likes it not so much.

By the way is anyone else going to finish their tear in clear plastic, it's really cheap. :lol:

Nope, but I'm sure it will now be widely copied :twisted:

Not much to take pictures of right now. Sanding and filling prior to glassing the seams this weekend. So it doesn't look much different.

The REAL door handle is on and the taillights (not wired). I plan to pull the wheels off this weekend and prep them for paint and new tires.

Thanks for the comments.

BTW the name will be the "Night Hawk". The wife being an ex-signpainter will be coming up with the graphix pretty soon and I'll post them.

I mounted the taillights and got them working so we made a trip to the local grain elevator this weekend.
940# so far.
It is alot lighter than the popup was. I am able to lift the tongue and move it around myself. I could never do that with the popup.
Probaly won't bother with update pics till we start painting and adding trim.

Got it primed this weekend. It kept trying to rain so no final paint work yet.

And here is the Fly. There weren't any bugs in town for two days. They were all stuck in my paint.

Well the white is all on and the top is covered.
Hopefully this week we will get the stripe on.

That really looks good Jack! What are you thinking for a stripe, or did I miss that? And what's the deal with bugs and paint....seems that no matter what you do....they seek out a new paint job.... :thinking:
