Well we are making progress. The roof has taken a lot of sanding to get the many coats of junk off. Will be closing up the hole above the bed and the one above the bath. The refrigerator vent has been moved 6" to the outside to line up with the new fridge's coils. Also put on the new mirrors

Those mirrors are really nice. Can you give us some of the specifics, like Brand, any problems you had etc?

These are Ramco. They went on really easy and I can finally see behind me.

Dude...I am speechless. What an incredible job. But where will you put your junk if you have no trunk? Big Grin

Are you considering making the grill slotted like Jeep?

I like the grill idea. We will be painting part of the Barth to match the jeep. I am working on the trunk tomorrow (jobsite shut down cause 18" of snow) I'm installing a slide under the bed.

We don't have a Jeep any more, but can our Toyota play, too?

Wow more 4-wheelers.

I ended up with a 60" long x 41" wide slide that pulls out 2/3. We can pile our junk 18" high. Tray is rated at 1000

1 pic is with it out 2/3. The other is with the slide in also showing new bed frame.

Looks great! Where did you get your taillight assembly/taillight lens? I sure would like to have something besides my pinkish purple ones.

Looks great! It makes me want to cut a door back there and do the same thing, but Susan has claimed the underbed space as hers. Frowner

Under bed space---

That is the single draw back to a pusher! Wifey still complains about that compared to our 27' SOB.
