The other side (continued)

Well, I have six weeks to catch you all up on. Most of this was just the same thing as what we did on the other side, so it's the same pictures, only reversed! lol

We did do a couple new things also, like add the strap on the door so it won't open all the way into the mirror, and install the window. Art removed the old bus air unit that we will not be using. We also gave it a bath and steam cleaned the engine.

And probably on of the biggest milestones... we gave it a name -- Sun Chaser -- because that's what we plan to do - chase the sun.

Making the door stop strap:

Installing the window:

Putting the aluminum siding up. Some is new, some is what we took off.
The boys helped us with this:

Removing the old air unit:

Transferring the dirt from the engine over to Art,
aka Steam Cleaning:

 

The siding concerns me a little because it has this discoloration. We're not sure what is causing that. This siding didn't lay as flat on the frame as we had hoped either. I think possibly that the roof line was not straight when we butted the side up to it. Anybody else who wants to put a one piece side up should watch for that.
