A Glimpse into building a camper

As it's getting very close to being finished, I thought I'd stop in to Gabe's garage to see what's going on and snap some quick photos for the blog. I took these with my phone so I apologize for the poor quality. But it should give one an idea of where we are. Gabe still has all the electrical to do and I have to finish the canvas to install. We should be at that point by Saturday! I get little buzzes of excitement in my stomach every time I see the camper!


The interior pic looks a little foggy because of the poor light quality but you can still see the glossy, almost purplish red stain on the inside.

The silver aluminum sides will be black by this evening.
Thats Gabe prepping the camper to be painted.

I wish we had thought to take pictures of the camper as it looked when Gabe bought it. It had ribbed aluminum dirty white and red striped outsides, '70's style orange and yellow and brown tattered cushions, a chipped formica table top, a pink sink, yellowy-brown fridge and wood siding on the inside. It smelled like mildew and dust. The canvas was light blue and ripped and stained. But hey, if it hadn't been so atrocious, we wouldn't have needed to do a complete overhaul and it wouldn't be looking as cool as it will now.
