My best guess is the roof framing is rotted in the corners and you will have to replace the framing. Most of the campers that use that lift system end up that way if not taken care. I wouldn't try a quick fix patch job. You may as well pull the roof, flip in over and fix it right. With a little...

I'm going to be camping at Kerr lake on the VA NC border, the first week of April. If it's still available I may be interested..

I'll be real curious as what the final weight comes in at. I'm guessing well over 1000#s. Last year I rebuilt a 4 wheel Grandby from the ground up. With electric jacks, battery and fridge it came in at 1100#s. After I stripped it, my bare aluminum frame with the roof was under 100#s. I used 3...

The 1972 storm was Agnes.

You are in my neck of the woods now. Looks like you crossed the Woodrow Wilson bridge near DC, and the Bay bridge by Annapolis. Lots of white knuckle driving in those areas! You won't find much free remote camping on the east coast unfortunately! I'm in the Amish country of S.E. PA. Beautiful...

That looks like a good deal, but you are really limiting the sale but not offering shipping.

Best of luck with the new rig!!

Pictures show up fine for me, and again in your quote.

I get his attitude, but 2K for one of those? Good Luck!

This van is not in Colorado, it's in Maryland. He listed it in Colorado as there might be more of a market for it there.
