gordiegaffer Report post Posted August 22, 2016 This looks fantastic. Did you do hardwood under the slides? I am purchasing a 2005 Winnebago 29r and it would be nice to replace the linoleum but the slides go over it . Any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erniee Report post Posted August 22, 2016 The stepwell slide cover comes out from under the copilot chair. Bluebird had that unit on steel and the chair sits on a steel bridge. The main floor is plywood over that steel. In order to have the slide come out level, carpet had to be used there. If I had my chance to redesign that, the steel platform would have been removed and the cover elevated to eliminate the carpet. I'll buy a Prevost Royale before I do all that.

manholt Report post Posted August 24, 2016 I was looking above the side radiator grill...1/2 way up side of coach rear. Looks like an 8" X 12" cover or tape, perhaps it's just the angle of picture.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rsbilledwards Report post Posted August 24, 2016 Carl, I'm with you, I wondered the same thing. maybe he is controlling incoming air or keeping the wasps from building a nest before the next trip. In doing all the work I have been doing on the Panther I have found a small box of retired wasp nests. One of them nearly filled one of the air horns, and several in and under the AC covers, YIKES!!!

huffypuff Report post Posted August 25, 2016 Are you sure that is a picture of a 300 amp alternator? Looks like some kind of pump to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not sure if that was meant to be a joke or not, but that's pretty funny. Asking Ernie if he knows what he's talking about! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
erniee Report post Posted August 25, 2016 Well- I have been involved with Bluebirds since 1982. I have owned 4 of them. Plus, Bruce Morris and I were the original founders of the Wanderlodge Forum 20+ years ago. How is that for credentials? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
huffypuff Report post Posted August 26, 2016 Well since it's not showing wiring and shows a couple of lines going into it there had to be an explanation why it's not vented. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
