Larry,
If you need any tips on installing those panels and trim, send me a PM.
Be forewarned that those fiberboard/fiberglass filler panels are continually decomposing after all these years by way of off gassing. you will eventually find small bubbles/pinholes forming within a year or so with what ever you chose for paint .
If you look at the previous Nomad post photos, you will see where some of those panels had eventually shed paint over time.
Mine have been painted now for 8 years or so and still look ok from a few feet. Rub your hand across the panels and you can remove calluses.
Yeah, decomposing, kinda like the direction some of our slimy steering wheels are headed.
Jim
