Bubba! They’re a fucking pain in the ass! I need to re do the front one. But for now I’m content. Haha should hopefully help keep some warmth in. I tried the metal stuff pat and couldn’t wrap my head around it. First try with the wood frame turned out ok. I’ll retry that sometime too. But the plywood can be reused on that panel. Just need to mess with the frame

 

yup. Planning on leaving SLC early in the am tomorrow

BeforeAfterFinally done! Took a lot longer than anticipated! Woodwork is super hard! Kicked my ass! First time really doing anything with wood. Not perfect, I want to change a couple things. But for now I’ll roll with it. I’m sick of working on it haha!

 

thanks to pat for all the answers to my questions and for some of the panels! Helped a ton

Our pups! Django the border collie Australian Shepherd mix. Just turned 1 a couple days ago. He’s all about go go go. Perfect dog for Emilee who loves to go run and hike everyday. We got him up in Tonasket, WA. Both parents were working farm dogs. He was a one person pup for a longggg time. Only liked Emilee…. I felt left out;) haha so we caught wind of a puppy that had just been born in downtown Spokane. A homeless guys dog had pups. We swooped up Nico the mega mutt street slut dumpster dog!;) haha we love her to death. She is the sweetest and biggest lover. She loves the bus. Gets comfy in bed and goes right to sleep. They both love being outside and camping. Great dogs.  Sorry for all the pics(I’m actually not sorry at all).

You’re going to drive all the way to Spencer first day?? Big day! I was thinking baker first. Then Spencer. Gotta get that soak time! Haha I told you I’d come out and help put your trans in! I’ve just been waiting on the green light of when it’ll be at kcw! Haha I’m not doing shit 🧐 hahaha trying to get my shit in gear for Shasta! I want to head out probably before you… so i have more days to soak. And shorter days. Those 12 hrs driving in a bus a day I did to meet you at Spencer last year sucked haha I was hoping your trans would be back by now and I could head down and help you with it. Let me know when you know. I was thinking leaving for baker either the 28th or 29th.

Around 600 miles on it. I need to pull the tranny, but have been busy on Shasta prep on my bus. Wood panels are hard work! First time and it’s kicking my ass. I ordered some tires and they have only been able to find 3 in that 205 size. 4th should be in any day. I was going to swap the tires out and see how the stance looks before I pull the trans. That way I know how much I need to re index the rear if any. And I can do that when the trans is out. I drove it the other day and that motor runs great! Starts right up. Just need to get the trans and stance right
