AVION Travel Trailers

Thanks for the reply and the info on the gaskets for the windows, I’ll be needing those as well. I’m in Annandale, NJ. Next step, after I get those large pieces out of the interior, will be to drop the bellypan and drill out exterior rivets and lift the shell so I can pull the frame/chassis out and ...

Thanks Razorback.
After looking again it definitely is not fiberglass but some type of material that almost resembles cardboard, which I know it is not.
Looking for anyone that has dealt with this issue and how best to proceed.

Hi TimYinger, We are doing the same this summer and it’s the same size trailer, so maybe we can keep each other updated. Where are you at in the project now? Would love to get an update and have any tips you’ve learned along the way. Anything you would have done differently? I started a new post und...

I posted some of this in an old thread under introductions but I think it belongs here. We have the inside skins down and the insulation out everywhere except in the very front and very rear, nose and tail. How do I get behind that molded material that isn’t an aluminum skin to get to the studs/insu...

Oh, maybe it is fiberglass? It almost looks like cardboard around the edges. I’m afraid to drop both pieces without some advice first.

So we are making progress but have questions with more to come. We have taken off the inside skins and removed the insulation everywhere except the upper nose “cone” and tail which isn’t aluminum but some type of masonite or molded plywood? I’m looking for suggestions how to proceed. Do you drop the...

Thanks Razorback. I cant wait until I can get to start the interior.

A few questions. As far as the stacks go. Are these original and what were they venting? It looks like the refrigerator and the heater. Then there is a screen disc with two wires coming out of it on the back of the trailer, see photo, was this for a light fixture or something else? was it original? ...

Needless to say the progress on the trailer has been much slower than we had hoped. The only thing we’ve been able to do is start stripping the paint. It comes off pretty easily with a thick coat of Citrisolve.

So, when I went to try and spin/free-up the wheels on July 27 I heard a very loud pop, and then a shooting pain. I had popped my distal bicep tendon right off the bone in my right arm. Surgery was 8/3 and I start PT Tuesday but I’m still in a brace with limited movement and absolutely no weight bear...
