That is a sweet set up. Is the inside of the camper just as nice as the outside?

yes the inside is in great shape for its age as well. I will be doing a little touch up work inside like pulling the cabinet doors and refinishing them. As you sou see the PO had glued western pictures on them. Although they are cool looking, they are a bit aged.

The white paint made a big differance in how the camper looks, The green stripes really make it stand out nice :thup: I think i like the Z stripe the best. Winnebago had the big W on the side of thier campers and think the Z fits in to the era. The black 2" outline on the green really makes the strip stand up and be noticed to :D

:2cents: if you doubled up the Z stripe with a lighter shade of green it would look almost authentic, most of the older campers and trailers i've seen/owned had a 2 tone on off-white colour scheme
