York caravan Y7825

[Deleted]

Hi all, I'm a newbie, Ann from Western Sydney. Have a York caravan which I think is around 1976, the York logo is inside an oval black line. Originally purchased with quite a bit of water damage, had to replace the interior ceiling and walls, the cupboards are still original, have original lime green and black chenille bedspreads and bench seats still have the original lime green and black vinyl. When I got the van it had orange curtains but was told it originally had lime green curtains, managed to get some of the fabric but not quite enough so used lace to fill. Has the original stove and fridge but the fridge still needs fixing. I'll try to post some photos, but am having trouble loading into photobucket is there another place I can send photos to.

The exterior paint is quite faded and polish doesn't make much difference, want to know what we should paint with, acrylic? brush? Any tips would be appreciated.

Also have a Freeway Camper on a HQ one toner, that's another project yet to be started, hopefully soon and its going to be a major job, will post another thread about that, after I work out the photos.

Try tinypic.com/?t=postupload I find it much easier than @##$%^&* photobucket

Hi HG Freeway,
Welcome to the forum.
When you open up a tread about your campers, make it in "Hall of Fame", there you can post images & report on your reno.
