AVION Travel Trailers

Thanks for the input! Everything seems to be holding up so far!

Ok, everything went great. It was my first time riveting and fortunately I got the perfect size and only had to grind one off. I made the piece bigger and made my own holes which helped a lot. Unfortunately I can’t do rubberizing because of the temperature, and due to some specifics about this rig I...

It's already covered up on the inside (previous owner), so I am inclined to drill through the rivets on the roo...

Hey all, newbie here. I don't know much of anything about electrical systems or trailers, but I just scored a '76 26 footer with not much in it.
