I really hope all is well, and he is so busy playing with his new toy, he forgot to let us know he is home.

[knocking on aluminum] Hopefully all is okay, or even better than okay.

He is so busy playing that he has forgotten to come home. Or, better still, that his home is now with him.

But it's more likely that he's busy with that first project.

Hey, maybe the aliens got confused, and thought his new Ambassador was the Mother Ship, and hauled him and it off to Melmac?

I guess both shows are appropriate. Maybe my brain was scrambled in Area 51.

Or maybe this is just my brother and I didn't know any different. -->

Anyone seen Mork lately? His egg was white. Thinking Argosy?

Hi Folks, yes I'm back. Thanks for showing your concern for my well being. Although most of the time I'm accused of being an alien myself. My wife is trying to alienate me since I came back with the news of my puchase. Oh Well..... What does she know? My new trailer could become my new home in short order.........Ahhhh......Life on the road! What Joy!

One problem is........ I have nothing to tow it with yet........Minor....

Anyway yes, I bought it! I'm a happy guy! and I don't care what anyone else has to say. And they are talking...........WHO CARES! I've found God in an aluminum can.

I appologize for not getting back on here when I got back. I've been busy trying to make the money thay my new baby is going to suck out of me. But thats another story......... I have to go out now, but I'll fill y'all in on my purchace when I get get back from dinner and a few cocktails.

Tamis,

Good luck with the silver purchase.
One tiny piece of advice, skip the cocktails, your silver palace will be needing that money!!!!

On second thought, have a couple for me

Hello Tamis!
I am a fellow Ambassador, 1970.
Lets keep in touch. i am currently gutting my bath and doing it MY way. The old bath is for sale if you need anything. As well as the oven which is a beauty!

I'd kind of like to see a photo journal of your bathroom restoration project. I've got a '72 and am curious to know what materials and design you intend to use. Thanks!

I'd like to hear more of the plan myself. Some how I would like figure out how to put a decent shower in. I've got a few other things to take care of first though.

By the way....... When I bought the trailer it came with the original owners manual. If any one out there is interested, maybe there is someplace I could upload it to?

I'm also in the process of posting some pictures of my new babe, if anyone wants to take a look.

In my photo album, I have placed several photos of the ugly part, gutting it. And I will keep posting photos as it gets beautified.

I know this thread is old but did you ever post pictures? I'm approaching a phased restoration of mine starting with the rear bath due to a plumbing issue and always like to see others.

Thanks!

Hi, I dont remember ifI posted pics or not. But it is complete now. What areas are you wanting to see and perhaps I can round up some photos.

SharonIvey · 11-19-2007, 07:08 PM

I was looking for the shower and sink area - debating on whether or not to do a complete replacement or simply go over everything with epoxy.

Sharon,

If you do a search in photos under "2-part epoxy" or "bathroom restoration", you'll probably find a few pics helpful.

I've refinished both a rear bath Overlander and a center bath Sovereign using "Tough As Tile" epoxy paint from Lowe's. I sprayed both in my garage, although it can be brushed on. We are extremely pleased with the results and highly recommend it.
