Re: 1968 Avion for sale- full restoration

Would you consider a trade for another Avion? Ours is currently gutted with new frame, floors, plumbing, etc. My work situation changed for the better and I no longer have time to finish the restoration.

70s Era Dometic Fridge

Does anyone have any interest or use for a 1978 Dometic Fridge? Free, pictures attached. Located in Southeast Louisiana. Not sure if it works, it was the only appliance that came with our trailer.

Re: 9.7 Meter Triple Axle 1979 Avion Floor Rebuilding

Many thanks. When reflooring, has anyone thought to include or replace the lower layer of plywood with polywall? I'm thinking about reflooring with an initial 1/8" polywall, 1/8" hardboard with epoxy, insulation, then the top layer of plywood. The amount of rot I removed in the last couple...

Re: 9.7 Meter Triple Axle 1979 Avion Floor Rebuilding

I had an insulation business as my 2nd career. We sprayed a lot of foam insulation. The wall and ceiling cavities in your trailer (and mine) were sprayed with 2-part, closed cell, low expansion polyurethane foam. It provided the greatest R-value per inch and added structural stiffness for the side ...

Re: 9.7 Meter Triple Axle 1979 Avion Floor Rebuilding

Is there any reasoning behind leaving the legacy insulation in-place? I am at a similar stage with my 34' and found the insulation is in pretty good shape, and the old hard insulation seems to add to the rigidity of the walls. I am debating whether ripping everything out (old wiring and insulation),...
