Newbe

Just wanted to say hello, and say thankyou for this site !  I was going to the hardware store when i saw this RV at the barber shop so I turned around and decided I was going to see who owned the fortravel bus. As I was parking I saw that they had some damage on rt rear corner. ( I do paint and body work and fiberglass work for a living) So I walked in and this guy asked If he was blocking me in. I said no that I was looking to the owner of the RV. Any way his name is Steve and lives in Kingwood and does elect. work. I told him all about the 85 forteavel that I bought and some of the things that I have had to replace and repair, the big one being that my head light wiring is just the bigest  mass you every seen !So Steve told me about this place and I am just loving all the info that is here.  Thanks for being here !!  Sid Andersen
