New steps

New steps built from above ground pool ladder section
The steps, fold up over door and are held in place while traveling by two flat bungee straps

Notice the bottom step is adjustable to accomidate parking on an unlevel surface. 

New flooring installed

Installed new flooring purchased from Home Depot.

New cabinet doors installed

Propane tank switch

After having so much trouble getting anyone to fill my 37 year old horizontal tanks, I decided to to rebuild the tank storage area, to accomidate new vertical tanks. Since the out side storage door was too small for vertical tanks, they had to placed in storage area from inside the camper. The storage area is located under the dinette seats, so I cut a hole through the plywood directly above the storage area and cut out the top of the storage box.
 I then built an extension to the top of the box, and built a lid to seal off the camper from any propane fumes, the original access door remains on camper and is vented to the outside.
When the lid is in place it sits flush with the rest of the bench area, allowing the cushions to cover the new propane access.

New paint

The camper is getting a new paint job with Gloss white pro series Rustoleum paint, applied with a 6 inch 1/2 inch nap roller.
since the aluminum siding has a wood grain texture , I can't tell that it wasn't sprayed on

This is how it looked before painting
