  • Hi there! Welcome to part 1: the first 12 days of our camper project! We have managed to gut and repair the interior over the course of 12 LONG days. Half of those days were spent resting from the hard work this project entailed. We look forward to rebuilding portions of the interior & revamping the exterior over time, but for now.. this is what we've accomplished. We are unsure of what our final plans are for this camper, but we will keep you updated!

    When I first saw the camper, I was like "NO WAY, NO WAY, THERE IS NO WAY". Whyyyyyy? just trash it and be done. But you two have spent a loooot of time and hard work to make it happen. Wow wouldn't believe it, if I didn't see it.

    Did the exact same thing on a 24 footer, but i ripped out every board & replaced it all with pressure treated lumber, wasn't playing around, & it was the same year era as this, i figured, if it lasted this long with regular ol lumber, & junk screws, it should last 10 life times with pressure treated lumber & all stainless steel screws

    I am living in a 73 32' Holiday Rambler 12yrs. Not Restored. Stove is Completely Useless and Rusted out (use as a Counter top with Hotplate on it), Some of the Windows don't work, No Septic Holding Tank, Water Heater don't work, Nice size Hole in the roof where a Tree Branch Fell and Stuck and is still in it, Roof has Tin over it and Cement blacks holding it down. Wiring is Sketchy at best but works. Toilet seat broke so use a Composting Toilet that sits in the Shower 1/2 Tub Combo. 3way Fridge was Worthless and didn't work.
    Live in Florida so don't take much to heat in the Winter and is not actually too bad in the summer for A/C. Bill ranges from $35 no A/C to $75 Using A/C.. Only Paid $1,200 for it. I think it was a Bit too much. Had to take out 2 Sets of Homemade Bunk Beds in the Back, where the 4 Children Slept ( before I got it) and the Parents upfront. Holes in the Bottom under the Bathroom area Allow Opossums, Mice, Neighbors Cats, Roaches In and had to Block those off, Still get roaches and mice.. it is Florida.
    Do I plan to restore it.. Eh.. got to built a House First and at the time of writing this, with the Prices So Fucking high on Lumber 2x4 for $20??? Yeah Fuck that! And I need Pressure Treated because the area I Live in, Building the house myself and as Money allows, the Untreated would Rot before I had it built.

    Is there no part two to this build?
    Really wanted to see the finished outcome.

      Probably sold it for scrap after realizing how much work this was. This camper is basically beyond repairing.
