Spent some time yesterday working on the camper.  got the skin pulled and the new wood cut.  I will have to get some pictures of the damage as it is pretty impressive.  

 

Still needing to get some hardware, but I should be able to finish up this week or weekend in order to go camping the weekend after next.

If anyone needs a canvas for a pop-up camper give bear Creek canvas a call.  Very happy with the quality and fit of the canvas.

I really like that.  I want one. 

[Mopar1973Man]

Nicely done. From what I can see you reconstructed the entire roof. Basically just only had the interior panel right? Fresh aluminum skin too. I see the OE was a 2 piece roof and your now is a one piece roof.

 

[Me78569]

I replaced the outer wood pieces the roof itself was good enough to leave.  

 

Reused the metal for the roof since it was in good shape. Still 2 piece. Roof.
