Every walnut wood part that will be reused, has a fresh coat of a poly urethane finish applied. All replacement wall and ceiling panels are cut with a urethane finish applied to the front. Then I applied a coat of exterior paint to the back sides. A paint gun,and a paint booth got me some great looking pieces. Putting an epoxy paint on the floor tonight. Then get all the wiring done so the foam insulation can be sprayed in Monday. There are some other great insulation materials. But I think the foam may give my some extra sound control to the coach. After the insulation is complete. Then install the interior panels, and cabinets. just to get them out of my way. Then widen the door so Linda can get in to plan the bath area. Haven't had a lot of time to put into this project yet. And not having outside help has slowed things down. But it's coming along well. The burned GMC is getting delivered tomorrow afternoon. And the other GMC I bought should be delivered next week. Bob Dunahugh

Bob,

For not having much time to work on it, and having to work alone, you put me
to shame when it comes to the progress that I'm making on my own GMC with
those same limitations!

Keep up the great work. I love reading about your progress. I can't wait to
see a series of photos too!
