Oh can't wait to see what you put up for us to see.  I have to say I was surprised at how flimsy Caravans are inside the walls.

Fantastic @Rex2ce. We love a good caravan reno project here in the Workshop community! We are looking forward to seeing how it progresses.

Is this your first caravan reno? 

Please let us know if you need a hand with anything. We have loads of helpful members sharing inspiration, information and advice every day.

Welcome to Workshop,

First serious Reno Jason, plenty of repainting done in the past

This Millard has aluminium wall frame, timber rafters and a timber top plate with rafters screwed in then plate nailed through top of alloy wall, part of the timber top plate is non existent due to rot, so about to remove top wall panel for access to repair timber

I was a little gobsmacked when I took the panelling off mine to find no framing across the front or back lower half, I've since added some.

Looking forward to following this as well. Keep an eye out for your build date written on the back of a plywood panel around your front window, I found 16.2.77 in my 15ft '77 Millard.
