....oops wrong key...anyway i don't thinki have ever seen that model before as a schoolie much a wander-lodge....must be in the 60's maybe?...what is the underside looking like?...rust and rot?...schoolies usually have a lot of rust that needs to be treated and coated...some to the wander-lodges were Ziebarted or some other kind of rustproofing...but usually that stuff only lasts about 10 years...my Dodge p/u lasted till this last year and now has 3 holes in the cab section...and I did have it re=coated yearly...lifted out the bedliner and the box was coated inside and out....there is a 6" rust through behind the back wheel well....and i have to decide if it is worth patching this year.....BTW I now spray with KEN-COAT it is a lot cheaper and doesn't dry out and crack like the Ziebart....geofkaye and the Rivercity Group.....

It's a '66 Wanderlodge. Side entry. Underside is solid and clean. I'll probably cut it right behind the windshield. The man who I am collaborating with is working on CAD drawings for our conversions and I'll see what will work best.
