Cabinet tear down.. what should I save?

[pamelake]

As I take down the cabinetry in my '75 Tradewind, how much should I save? In other words, what would be useful to other Tradewind owners? Thanks, Pam

One mans trash is another mans treasure. Unless you have someone local to pick it up shipping costs soon outweighs the value. When I stripped out my Globetrotter, I stored the interior parts for a couple of months while I advertised the parts for free to a new home. I finally got tired walking around the mess, and took it all to the dump.

For starters, save the aluminum extrusions that hold the bulkheads to the inside skin. I would go as far as saving all loose aluminum extrusions the you come across. You wll need some of them when you rebuild.

The tambour doors are in such bad condition... that is why I am building new cabinets. But, I will have all of the parts and tracks etc. As soon as I figure out how to post a picture I put up some pictures of them. It could be a few months before they are out. Send me a private message so I will have your information. I am happy to help if I can. Pam
