Inaugural trip to the gas station!

This may not seem like a big deal but when you have an rv that hasn't run for a number of years..its the small victories that count!  John was pretty happy with it..we were only smoking a little when we got there.  He rerouted the second gas tank to feed the generator which is next on the list.  We also patched the grey water tank that was dripping a bit with a fiberglass repair kit..will let you know how that works our first time out.

Fancy Seats!

The last piece of the upholstery puzzle to be sure.  Haven't ever done seats so this was new.  Figured out I am good with a pattern but not so much on alterations.  All in all I think they came out well.  Bought a nice durable microfiber..that's the chocolate and a micro suede..that's the camel.  I also embroidered the winnebago and Indian logos which was quite fun.  Hope you like!

Great rv flooring!

Working on the deck flooring tonight.  Looked at rubber flooring but was pricey and heavy.  Found this foam interlocking anti fatigue flooring at northern tool for about 20 a package.  Six 2 x 2 pcs.  Thought we would have to glue it down but it fits nice and tight.  Should insulate against sound too!

Love that Bling! Shiny T Molding

Found exactly the size and profile of t molding I needed at t-molding.com. This went on super quick, came with protective plastic on it and trimmed with an ordinary pair of scissors. Best of all it fit my budget, cheap! Looks sharp right! You have to touch it to know it isn't metal!

RV Flooring-Allure!

Finally got time to get Mo out of the barn so I could take some photos. We put this flooring down last fall. It is Allure vinyl flooring from Home Depot. We wanted the rich look of wood but were afraid laminate wouldn't hold up to the grime of camping and the racetrack. We also wanted something that would flex with the coach and be easy to cut and fit into the rig. This stuff fit the bill. We were a bit worried as it isn't necessarily rated for our Minnesota -30 below winters but it looks just as beautiful as it did when we put it down!

2011 Update!

Sorry its been so long folks! Racing and school has gotten in the way a bit of progress on Mo. I am now a Certified Holistic Health Coach tho so that is pretty cool! We are back on track with getting Mo on the road. Labor Day is what we are shooting for! The flooring went in last December but haven't had him out of the barn to take a good photo of it. We ended up with Allure flooring from home depot..it is a waterproof vinyl that should expand and contract ok with our change in temps. I went back to home depot today as i was thinking of using rubber matting up front under the two seats and they now have some sweet diamond plate looking vinyl. It comes in 12 inch planks and runs about $75 for 24 sq. feet. Not sure yet, will be doing some surfing on this yet. Mo got new glasses a couple of weeks ago. Both windshields had fogged up all the way around about 4 inches. It looks so good and insurance covered it! Stay tuned, hope to have some new pics up this weekend.
