I started out with high hopes of getting the roof off today, but it was drizzling until after noon. So I instead pulled out the two front windows, the rear window, and the bottom rear skin.
Yuch!
Here’s what the wood around the front windows looks like:
It seems that as originally built there was wood directly exposed to the rain. It probably had some putty around it, but that’s all. It’s hard to be sure what was original and what was an attempt by somebody to fix the problems, but this will all need to be replaced.
Same in the back, but even worse. On the rear window, right side, the wood that used to be there is just gone. Not even wood pulp left.
On the left side you can at least see what’s supposed to be there.
Here’s what the back looks like with the lower skin panel off. Obviously that all needs to be replaced including the inner wall.I hope tomorrow is clear.
