Our storage facility has a community junk pile. Locals leave scrap metal which eventually gets recycled. I noticed an old propane tank so asked Ms Sara. She said I could have anything I could use. The first step was removing the float valve; aka overflow protection device (OPD).
To help address SportCam leaks the whole rooftop air conditioner was removed. Once gone it was easier to "read" the roof distortion. It's true. A picture can tell a story.
Since the SportCam was so filthy we began with exterior cleaning. I started scrubbing the roof. Lots of soap and water. Lots of elbow grease. It was tedious work but Mr. Clean Magic Erasers really helped detail the gelcoat. Cleaning just the roof took most of one day. It cleaned up surprisingly well, so that effort was well rewarded.
This blog's been neglected long enough. Time for another project. This one's a truck camper. I'm actually not sure whether to call it restoration, rennovation, rehabilitation, or remodel. Probably all those, I suppose.
My new project is a 1999 SportCam slide-in. They're rare. Not many made. Not much info. This Truck Camper Magazine article covers their main claim to fame: self-(un/)loading design; plus another fun fact, or two.
