Razorback,

Awesome information. History is always fascinating

I’m not sure specifics. I do believe 1976 would pre date Fleetwood’s ownership.

There was nothing abnormal about any of the materials I used on the rebuild of the floor. Between the frame and shell of the body I cut down pressure treated 2x4's to tie the frame to the shell of the body. I used the thickest duct tape I could find (Gorilla Duct tape was what I preferred) to place ...

It was tricky in some spots but I was able to compete the rebuild in what I feel will be a more solid struc...
