1992 Remodel & FBP at FOT

June 18, 2011, 02:10:53 pm

Dori and I picked up our coach a couple of weeks ago in Nac. Just now getting around to posting some pics. Justin aka Biscuit painted the coach. David removed the J section from the couch and replaced with a 3 drawer cabinet, recovered the couch, 2 chairs and dash with ultrasuede, and added face fronts to the 3 front drawers. (under driver, pass, & tv). Service did a PDI and did lots of repairs. It took about 6 months but the results have been fantastic! I'm open for questions and will post some interior pics later.

See ya

That is one good looking coach.  Nice job.  Would like to see the interior pics.  Dan Stansel

We were in NAC a couple of weeks ago and saw your coach moving through the campground at FOT. What a lovely GV!

Here are the interior pics as promised. I removed the original TV and replaced with a HTPC I built. I got the idea for putting a big screen on the TV shelf from another FT owner (Andrew Thank You!) I just move it to the bed when we travel. I just have to hook up the coax, hdmi, and do a direct line from my headphone out on the TV to the in-dash stereo. No 5 channel sound but good enough! You can see the face fronts on the drawers under the TV. David F said he really liked the way the drawers turned out. The carpet that covered the drawers would always get raggedy. They should have done that on the original coaches!

Dori reminded me that I forgot to mention that MCD day/night shades are on order and should be installed by the end of the month.

Thumbs up, indeed!  We also got to see the exterior of your coach in Nac last month - even more gorgeous in person!

David F.'s team sure does great interior work, too

Steve & Michelle sorry we missed you. We where there for 3 weeks. I thought I talked to just about everybody in the lot! Dori was sick the first week and the heat keep us from socializing as much as we would have liked. We did meet 3 new best friends though! Berry & Cindy, John & Sally, Elliot & Mary. Hope we can meet up with you down the road.

Ken & Dori ... that is just a stunning transformation.  We saw the original when we were together for Ladies' Driving School. That terrific paint job and the interior work are just out of this world.  Congratulations!  Big Agnes really shines!

Thanks Carol! We are pretty happy with the results! We will be traveling around CO this summer. If you & Jeff get anywhere close give me a shout maybe we can meet up.

Jimmy, the TV isn't mounted. There is a pull out tray on slides that is mounted above where the original TV went. I just stand the TV on it. When we travel I unhook the coax, hdmi, and plug then move it to the bed in back.

Just got a chance to see this. Totally envious of that paint job!  So how much you want for it? ;-)
