Hi Bill:
As I remember, all 4500s had the front dinette
fiberglass front as in your pictures. I don't think we ever built one with the flat front as the 1300s had. It's hard to tell from your pics if there was a bunk in your trailer. Look at the wood frame directly under the window. If there's about 10 screw holes going across this wood frame work, then it had a bunk. The wood board across the 2 dinette seats is not original, so it's hard to say what was there before. Are there screw holes in the 4 corners, indicating a previously anchored board? (In the
fiberglass.)
We tried to accommodate as many customer requests as possible. This trailer could have been built without a bunk or fixed table. Perhaps the original customer had a portable table in the this spot. A factory installed front dinette table would not have been anchored onto the window frame wood. It's way too high.
On further reflection, you have a newer 4500, as evidenced by the bump out for the larger
fridge. At this point all 4500s would have had the same front end - dinette or bunk.
Hope this helps.
Center seam molding: Bolers/Scamps have a different joining method. Not knowing what Paul did, you may want to contact me about fixing the seam.
Fridge: Be sure to seal the back of the
refrigerator to the interior of the trailer. You don't want to have the combustion exhaust gases entering the trailer.
