Some B&A of my 78 SRV240

Well that really turned out nice, with plenty of room back there that is a good option. I may have to follow your lead on that one.
 
port side of the cabin

On your doors was it like a fake veneer in the middle or was yours actual wood? I've been wanting to do mine but wasn't sure what would happen if I sand them, mine is an 85 though.
 
It is a vaneered plywood with teak trim around the outside
I sanded but only hard enough to remove the old varnish
be careful and use a light grit like 220 or you can easily sand through
the grain....I did in a few spots
 
My Craigslist score of the winter...200.00
doing some minor mods and adding some screened windows to the side curtains
and this will be my 500.00 camper top :grin:
