Hey Everyone,
New to the forum and new to RV'ing. 2 Years ago and I picked up a 1988 Econoline Tioga Arrow 23' motorhome... Looking at it at the garage I thought... Not too bad.. I could fix it up.. So I bought it for $2000.00 and drove it home.....
It has sat for the last couple years because of work and no time... Now I am ready to tear into it.....
First Problem... Last week I went to have the ownership transferred to my name so I could get some trip plates put on. The lady I bought it from signed it "As Per Estate of" for her passed husband. When I went to the Vehicle office the lady said it has to read Executrix of ......... So I went to call her and found out she died last spring!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!! Now the paperwork begins. Won't be a problem, just will take a bit of time....
And now some photos for everyone.. It is in rough shape I know but I have restored 2 boats, 2 trucks and I am pretty handy with tools so I hope this will go smoothly.....
I saw there was a leak in the ceiling so I went up top to see why..... Well can ya figure it out I planned on replacing the roof inside and out.
This is going to be a complete gut and re do inside and body work done on the out. Maybe some new paint and vinyl.... We'll see.
So what do you all think? Suggestions other than get rid of it???
More to come as well as the questions......
