Best or worst $500 I've spent this year. So the kids talked me in to this beaute, but I am still unsure if I'm happy or not lol It ran, and was driven home..so that was a plus. I should have taken pics first, but once I get tools in my hand I am destruction crazy. So far I've coated the roof with two coats of elastomeric coating, replaced 2 vent covers (1 was a different style, that's for tomorrow), added 1 pipe vent cover, and completely ripped out all of the old water damage from the rear end. There was some serious leaking for a long time and the wood was trashed! I'm just using cheap furring strips and a 2x4, so nothing too fancy or EXPENSIVE going in to this project. I have no idea about the working condition of anything else since I am focused on seeing if this can pass a PA inspection first, then I will consider cosmetic work. The brakes barely work, so this weekend I will replace all fluid and check pads as well as an oil change. I put some seafoam ( I live that stuff for engines!) in the crank breather along with the gas tank (could use more, either out of gas or the sending unit is stuck). If anyone has a link to a service manual .pdf please send me a link! This thing smells as bad as it looks, but once all this rat/mouse poison is gone I can hopefully pull out the rest of the remains (already grabbed a few live ones, much to the kids amusement) out and replace a few stinky things .aka the carpet. I will TRY to get some pics, but I never think of it once I'm relaxing after work working on this. :-[ As it sat this past weekend when we picked it up, taken from my cell:
