Repair of the HoHo

It's a new year and I have finally scheduled some free time!

Looks very promising that this Saturday I will be moving my Safari to a heated storage shop that will allow me to work on the needed repairs.

Anyone that has seen my trailer knows that the name "HoHo" was given due to crushed endcaps. Yep, both sides. I restored the front to a "good enough" look by removing the interior and pushing them out. The rear panels can not be repaired without removal of the bathroom, so that project has been put on hold.

Now time has come! I've arranged for storage thru May. I hope to document this process as much as possible.

Hopefully, I can get rolled out in time for the Bluegrass Rally!

wish me luck...

DanB

Long ago in my childhood, hostess hoho's were sealed in tinfoil with the ends "smashed" in. Just like my trailer.......
