Caravan Renovations

Have spent a bit of time working on the old caravan. Still more work to be done to get it in top notch shape but it's certainly very serviceable for a 34yo rig! The table that came with it was not the right one (it was too small to fill the space for the bed) and it had certainly seen better days.

I salvaged the folding leg off it and built a new one out of MDF and pine.

The under-floor water tank has a split in it where the outlet connector threads in and it'd been badly repaired with some epoxy and silicone.

I pulled the tank and will be replacing it as well as hoses in the near future. In the mean time we'll be able to use the kitchenette inside with a 25L plastic water jerry can. Amy is working on removing the tattered wood-grain con-tact paper and has some new stuff to go on as well as updating the fancy 1970's cushion covers.
