I also have new tail lights and marker lights, LED, to install before taking her out camping. For the most part, things can be done a bit at a time between camping trips I figure.

Thats what is so nice about fiberglass, it doesn't take much to make it look new again.

I was fortunate enough to have my mom and dad visit from Ontario this past week. My dad was a huge help at getthing those jobs done that take an extra pair of hands. We got the tail lights and marker lights figured out and installed, the interior lights mounted and the TV/DVD/radio installed. The flooring is finished now and the hole where the furnace was is now filled as a temporary measure. The water system has been given a total overhaul, I also borrowed an idea from another thread on this site and built some shelves for the old wardrobe. So now with the water done, the electrics done, the floor done, the holes filled, the headliner washed, the frame painted, bearings replaced and packed with grease, new baby-moon hubcaps, the shelves installed and the TV/DVD for rained-out days, I think we are almost ready for our first big trip out. Pictures to follow soon.

Nice work. I especially like the curved shelves on the inside of the closet door.

Wonderfully fresh I'm betting you'll make a ton of memories and I'm already looking forward to some camping pics.

Lovely looking trailer. I'm wondering if the 'potty' is in the space usually filled by the fridge? If so - where did you put the fridge? Sometimes I find it difficult to compare other people's photos to my own new-to-me Trillium.

The chem-toilet is in the space the fridge is usually in, we removed all the propane gas appliances from the trailer and decided not to replace them. I dont like propane (safety reasons mostly, besides I'm an electrician so electric is what I know best) so a 120volt bar fridge will eventually go in the space the wardrobe was in with a small microwave on top of it. There is also plans to install a 4000 - 5000 btu air conditioner under the front seat.
We will be using coolers and ice for our short weekend trips for the most part and they will tuck nicely under the front bench seat.
The project is in a state of transition as we have limited funds to dedicate to it. Hopefully over the next couple of camping seasons we will get it all figured out.

In the early 80s, my parents had neighbors with an all green Trillium, inside and out. I always thought it was the cutest little thing...
Your camper is lovely. I hope you enjoy it very much!

Thanks, the wife is getting started on new cusion covers and throw pillows for it as well as new curtains. Id love to know what would work for getting marks off the fiberglass gelcoat on the inside off the trailer. Any suggestions? (Mr Clean Magic Eraser?)

Im so pleased with how the throw pillows and curtains turned out that I had to take pictures.
The seats still haven't been covered yet but I draped the material over them to get an idea what it will look like.

These curtains are really cute! Pillows & curtains are fresh looking. Curious as to how you attached the curtains at the top. Good idea as to how they roll up. Good job!
