New 30p Owner
Hello! Just picked this up a few days ago and thought I'd share. All of the remodeling was done by the PO including new Dometic fridge and A/C which is pretty essential for being in Texas. Some things id like to tackle first are sealing up the roof/ replacing the fans, inspect the tanks for any leaks or cracks and possibly remove the black water tank (I'm planning on a composting toilet), and removing and replacing the old water heater with a tank-less (figured I would re-do the plumbing with PEX while at it). Everything seems to work beautifully and am really looking to putting in a lot of preventative work. Let me know if there are any other things I should be looking out for.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Welcome to the forum! You will find good people and sound advice here.
We have a '88 30P we finished restoring last year. I installed Pex plumbing and a tank-less water heater. Let me know when you are ready to take this on!

Re: New 30p Owner
The window seals are definitely one of the first things on the list. Thanks!

That is a beautiful interior! Someone thought of and executed a nice plan.
Do you know the condition of the axel bearings/races and brakes?

Re: New 30p Owner
Was admiring your shower curtain. Is it on a tension rod? If so could you take a photo for me. We are trying to replace ours!

I found the the existing track for the shower curtain was inadequate, so I installed this:

Re: New 30p Owner
Thanks for sharing info!! Going to order it for ours!
Re: New 30p Owner
Also noticed the updated roof vent! Did you install this? If so can you provide info on it?
Re: New 30p Owner
That is a Fantastic Vent fan, and to my knowledge it came stock on my '87 34v. The opening is 14"x14". I will say this much. If it didn't come stock, a PO installed it.
