Today I wire wheeled and painted the rear bumper white.
I liked it so much I did the same thing to the tongue. Now all I need to do is paint everything in between. Going to look at new tires tomorrow. Hope my local tire store has some nice white walls. Then I will need to clean up my rims and paint them as well.
We found a brand new Bargman L66 door handle today in a RV Parts store. It was probably sitting on their shelf for the past 25+ years. Just what we needed to replace the old door handle that was missing the tumbler.
Nice find on that Bargman handle, those sell for crazy money if you can find one. They were reproduced and I bought one of those, but the latch bar inside the unit was made of pot metal and it broke soon after I installed it. Luckily, Vintage Trailer Supply is now selling the latch bar made from billet aluminum. I got one of those and so far it's working a little better.
