I bought the awful looking Compact Jr. (black) that some of you might have seen here late last
fall. I have all the
windows and door out and the glassed down roof removed. I wondered why the trailer didn't seem to have as much headroom as my useable one. When I took out the carpet and the waterlogged side wood floor pieces I discovered that the trailer has sagged, cracked, and been sawed through by the fore and aft metal supports on the frame. The bottom of the
fiberglass body is an inch lower than the top of the frame at the back, with holes where the body was rubbed through and cracks to the edge of the glass. At least one of the outer cross braces under the front is seriously bent downward. The lower front panels are pretty much junk, I had planned on fixing them by glassing in a panel and
painting with a stone guard to cover any mistakes I made, but they are also badly damaged at the point where the glass body meets the frame. All this combined with at least 6 dozen screw/bolt holes, random vent holes, and all the extra gelcoat and bondo that needs to be removed from the pop top. I've watched the
fiberglass repair videos but never done it myself. I know I would have to take the egg off of the frame, have the frame fixed (weld new supports on?), and then put it all back together. I'll have to pay for the frame repair but I can't swing the glass repair too. All the window glass is gone, parts of the
windows are missing, and the door is a total loss. Is this thing even fixable? Thoughts? Comments? Spare parts
for sale?
