Several years ago, we restored a vintage 1967 Yellowstone travel trailer.
Our goal with the restoration was to keep the original vintage look, but update it with modern day amenities found in today’s RVs. This is how we did it.
Mark Polk: Hi, and welcome to our RV interior upgrade project. The RV getting the upgrade is our fifth wheel destination camper at the beach. When we were looking for an RV to put on our lot, we didn’t want a brand new one for obvious reasons. What we found was an older fifth wheel that was in excellent condition for its age.
Well, there’s something you can do that can make starting up this fire a whole lot easier. Some people really struggle with that, use a lot of newspaper, starting fluid, even worse, something like that. But there’s a really simple little tool you can make that helps you start a fire like this with one match every time. Let’s take a look.
Several years ago, I built a garage to store our motorhome and my restoration projects in, but eventually the garage was full and I needed more room. I had space behind the garage for another structure, and my thoughts were to construct an RV carport in that space.
The dimensions for our structure are 30 feet long, 14 feet wide, and 12 feet tall. I no sooner got the lot cleared and the building materials arrived. Now let me show you just how easy it is to construct a VersaTube steel frame RV carport.

Your RV is a major purchase, so it goes to say you want to protect your investment.
Welcome back to the RV interior makeover finale. So far, we installed MCD day-night roller shades, whitewashed wood planks, Infinity luxury woven vinyl flooring. And today in the finale, we’re installing new RecPro furniture.
A year ago, I went to the RV open house in Elkhart. And I got to see so many RVs. And many of the higher end RVs had this really nice, cushy floor. It wasn’t rug, it was a vinyl woven top, but it was cushy and so nice under the feet. So, we’re going to use this product, Infinity Luxury Woven Flooring, and do it ourselves.
we jump right in by unscrewing the threshold. And we found underneath the threshold were three lines. But there’s room for the flooring, so we’re good. The other moldings we took off and they had little, short barbs on them, so we knew we’d have to add longer nails.
The template is simply made with craft paper and masking tape. And there it is, our template. Now, we pick it up and bring it outside. Lay it on the material.
Jeff reviews two No Bo trailers from Forest River with very different characteristics. The rainy Oregon weekend provided its own challenges, but that didn’t slow down these two off-roads beauties! The design is modern and different than your typical RV. It beckons the user to go off-roading, get off the grid!
