I am currently in the process of refurbishing this old coach that I recently acquired. The coach has leaky doors so the carpet was ruined. I just finished removing the carpets, sanding the floors, and applying three coats of POR15 to it. New carpet will be laid Sunday. I am trying to buy some new weather stripping from Cuda Mike and hopefully that will prevent anymore wet floors. The coach has already had half of the rear floor removed along with the rollers so I am thinking about installing a bench seat and some video monitors in the rear and making it into my gaming room. I'm out of town right now but when I get home I will post some picks of the work and the progress that I make.

I have finally gotten the new carpet laid down and the seat back into the coach....Here are some pictures of the work as it was being done.

I cleaned up the rust as much as possible and then applied three coats of Gray POR-15 to the floor.

Once the POR15 had dried I dry fitted the carpet and then permanently attached it to the floor.

Next I installed the seats back in the coach and attached the seat belts and trim piece.

During the time I was working on the floor I also had to rebuild a divider wall. The divider had been removed from the coach and a subwoofer box installed. I removed the sub box, rebuilt a wall, covered it in carpeting, and then added trim to it to make it look clean and neat.

Tomorrow I am having new tires installed on the coach. Hopefully I will get the new weatherstripping soon and get started on removing the old stuff and installing some new plastic.
