Good to hear from you Sid
Sounds like you're making excellent progress on the BeachComber and I hope you and your wife get to use it too before her treatments.

Looks good Sid

I don't know if I'd tow my Beachcomber that far but if I do I'll definitely take you up on your kind offer.
Thanks,

Well it's got to be nice enough that I'd camp in it myself
I'm certainly not going to the extremes on this one as I am on the one I'm keeping but it has to be dry clean and safe(brakes,electrics and propane, tires and hitch).
I figure I'll have about $800...

Hey Sidney
Sorry to hear about your wife, it's tough I know.
As for the Beachcomber looks like you're doing a great job and will have it ready for camping next summer.

That looks good Sid
I think you nailed it Sid and the cedar idea wish I'd thought of it too, also that's some fancy wood cutting.

Hey Sid, check out the pictures in 33 to 35 in my build post.
They show how I pushed up the ceiling/roof, what it doesn't show is I also used P/L premium fibre glass compatable adhesive to hold the wood frame to the roof/ceiling.
Hope that helps.
Rick.

Now we only have to find the other 6 owners LOL.
That thing looks to be in great shape, do you have any interior pictures you can share with us.
If you want to see the progress on my build check out 78 BeachComber rebuild thread.

Great progress
If you are near a Princess Auto they should have the "C" channel extruded aluminum.
It sure does bring back memories seeing your stripped bare interior.
Have you decided on a layout and what...
