Hi Chuck,
Sorry I won't be at the Balloon Festival in New Mexico. I still have to
work for a living. It sounds like fun.
I'll let you know how the headliner project goes. Right now the coach is
in the driveway with most of the old headliner down. I'm debating on the
merits of taking down the plastic cab headliner down. It has a small crack,
but the passenger side visor covers it up.
Taking down the cabinets was fairly easy, I know the reverse will not be
easy. I plan on using the "stud" technique to get them back up.
Now I am going to do some rewiring. Add a few AC outlets, new speakers
and wires now that the old headliner is down. Might as well do that work
now that I have access to the "attic" of my coach. I'm probably going to
add
some insulation like Henry Davis shows at his web site.
I'm still trying to find a source for the Plasti Kote vinyl die that Arch
has
talked about. My local auto parts stores have never heard of it. One place
did sell me a spray vinyl coating. I took all the window trim down and all
the pieces need to be made white again.
This job is probably going to take me a month. In fact I know it will take
me
a month because I have a trip coming up in a month.
Besides the headliner I'm putting in day/night shades.
