Copied from GMC Motorhomes forum.

Yesterday at 11:18 PM

Short term I'm fine with the original particle board cabinets. A bit rough but they get the job done.

Longer term I'd like to replace all the particle board with higher quality wood cabinets and fittings - in most cases following original measurements and layout. I don't have the skills to build these, so I'll need to take a set of drawings to a cabinet shop or boat interior specialist.

Has anyone found or created a detailed set of cabinet drawings based on the original GM 26' set?
I searched here, GMCMH Photos, GMCMI folders, etc.

thanks!

I these are in the files somewhere, I will forward the location to Kendra.

There is a guy in Calgary, I forget his name at the moment, that use to make replacement cabinets out of aluminum. As soon a I remember his name I will post it. He should have the measurements you want.

Yes, that is who I was thinking about. He was a fireman in Calgary. He drove straight through from Calgary to attend one of our Eastern States rallies. He did the same thing on the way back. That is way more than I would ever attempt.
