Starcraft Stardust 8 Pop-up Restoration
9/18/2014
Below you can see the camper. My dad picked it up from the family friend that sold it to me. I haven't received the title yet and the original owner can't remember the year. I will update as soon as I have that information.
It has been sitting in a small lot of tall grass for years. When I first looked at it, I walked away. The canvas is in very bad shape, it smells of mold, dry rot, and screen tears. There are most likely rodent nests. After some research, upon seeing other restored campers that started in rougher shape than this old girl, I decided to buy the above camper for $200.00.
THE PLAN:
The plan is to remove the canvas, remove the roof, repair the roof, gut the interior, rebuild the interior, replace the canvas, remove the wheels/tires, remove the tires, sandblast and paint the the wheels, replace the tires, sand and repaint the frame, replace wheels/tires, and then go camping.
More pictures to come, once I get up north and begin.
