Jexcar,

Any luck on finding an accordion seal supplier near Arizona for me? How is it joined?

When you mention glue for the wall paper, do you mean just a normal heavy duty wall paper adhesive or something stronger? We have 1/2" ply walls which we intend to fill the screw holes, etc. and skim before sealing and wallpapering.

As ours was originally a Grumman box body, it has an aluminum exterior skin with "Z" channel supports about every 16", so we used 1" Celotex foam which fitted in the "Z" channel and then we went over it all with 1/2" Celotex and 1/2" ply to make a 2" wall with nearly R-12 of foam insulation. We have 4" of Celotex in the roof too.

We have just returned from a 6 week, 6,500 mile trip with it 90% finished and had no real problems other than a leak at the cab boot and a loose window leaking...... Ooops!!!

Thanks for your imput, it is much appreciated.

Peter.
