I just gutted the living area today from the front step to the galley.
Removed the top layer of carpet to expose the lime green underneath. That
will go tomorrow. Also removed the water damaged plywood on the sides.

1) I want to paint the plywood floor before recarpeting, any recommendations
of what to use to waterproof it(paint, varnish, polyurthene, ect., any
better luck with one brand or another?

2) My coach did not come with Orginal bunks, ie. no mounting holes on
either side. I want to be able to predrill and glue on some nuts to both
sides so I can come back and mount the top bunk when I find one. Does anyone
have the dimensions for the mounting holes for the top bunk to the wall?

PS. Can anyone help me get a dinette and bunk bed set shipped from Medford,
Oregon to Omaha, NE for a reasonable cost?

3) Any recomendations on chauking to use to seal up water leaks?

4) Any sugestions for other things I should do while I have it stripped
down this far.

For those of you who have send ideas, much thanks.

Ed I used Cuprinol green to protect the new plywood floor sections that I
replaced. Also be sure that you use good hardwood multi-ply -plywood. I got
mine at Home depot. You probably have a 1" floor instead of the later 3/4"
so it will be harder for you to find.
