    You’re doing essential work on the outside, it will feel good knowing you’re watertight. 🙏

    I would remove them two vents where the refrigerator used to be make sure you take them down and block them with some wood then you can put the vent covers back on you don't want cold air to come through just saying I am a new subscriber love your channel wife and I have been living off grid for almost 8 years now but we travel where in the southwest for the winter

    Look for plastic putty knives they might help scrape the old putty off without scratching the metal

    Can i offer a small tip. Maybe put a tarpaulin over the van so you can work in wet weather. helps you continue in bad weather.

    Maybe get butyl tape to re-seal the vents and windows.

    the best and rite way to reseal the windows and door is to completely remove them and reseal the mounting surfaces. I know its a lot of work but very necessary to do it rite. Dont take shortcuts or you will be doing it all over agn in 6 months.

    Use a putty knife that's way to sharp

    Again its not a 1987, its a 67 or 57. If it says 87 on the title its a fake title - and who cares about that, but the trailer is older - which is good, they bring good $$$ restored

    Hello there, I was wondering, if I can share with you the most important thing ever before. God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. Then He was put into a tomb for 3 days, after that Abba Father raised Jesus to life. He appeared to people, and went back to heaven. We all must sincerely receive Jesus into our life to be God's child. John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name" Will you today genuinely by faith receive Jesus into your life for salvation?
