Up-grading the Coach

Retird2Golf · 07-26-2007, 06:53 AM

:P After the trip to Goshen, IN for the "Back Home " Rally ....

AND looking

at all the new coaches, we found a local
busines (Bradd and Hall), that sells RV Furniture.
A local Amish shop built us our cabinets and top (Golden Oak) to fit the area of the factory dinette. A table that slips into, and under the top that has a built in leaf to extend.
We also ordered two regular chairs and two fold up chairs.
After a three week wait, (which they told us) they wrapped and shipped to us on a pallete via commercial trucking.
Everything arrived in perfect condtion yesterday, sooo, I am now
starting to install. More later with some pics.

Wooo Hooo !! what fun !!

Hey Clyde! congrats man...that looks awsome!! It really made for nice usable space!

Nice to see...thanks for sharing with us.

Clyde,
Sure looks great. Wish we could do the same, but with a
BT we need the storage under the booth.

Retird2Golf · 07-28-2007, 05:17 AM

Hey Maggie, :P with the 6 drawers 18"deep, we have more room now !!

The table can be slid out and has an extra leaf.

Next project ... move the couch out 5" from the wall to use the space to store the 2 fold up chairs.

Well that will have to wait ... It.s off to Maine for the month of August.

With fabric that looks nice....not the typical designs that we are accustomed to in rv's. Everything looks great. Charlie

Yeppers, we love the fabric in the chairs. Now if I could get rid of that stupid rocker/recliner that can't turn or recline .......

Always something to do !! LOVE IT !!

It's a job taking that "stupid/rocker" out, but it can be done.
The only problem is that it is bolted to the floor and has a large metal plate. After you take it out you have to recarpet or find a place that you can scrounge a piece of carpet in order to patch it where the metal plate is. I don't know of any one who has one of these chairs that is happy with it. We just replaced it with a regular swivel rocker. No seat belts.
No real problem with it moving when in transit.

Well lets us know how you (details) moved the couch forward, I would like to do the same. To make room for storage behind the couch is a great ideal
