You will see from the pictures that I have some more work to do. I need to get new propane tanks and hook that system up. Need to make and mount new wings. Also need to do the final wiring for the exterior lights.
Ultimately, I am happy with the overall look of the exterior. The new paint looks pretty decent but a bit flat in spots. I will probably buff or wax the whole thing at some point. New decals look pretty good too.
No more rambling talk. More pictures. We will go with the old standby of before and afters...
Curbside window...
AC unit removed and replaced with a Airflyte window...
Kitchen window...

Street side dinette window...
Front window. I added the decal above the window. The trailer didn't originally have one but I like how it looks so I went with it...
Entrance door. Biggest change is removing the hasp and added the deadbolt...
Interior of the entrance door and screen door...
Replaced that crusty latch with a new one...
Repainted step. I used skateboard grip tape that I had left over from another project. Cut it into Mid Century style stars to make it a bit more interesting to look at.
Taillights with new lenses from VTS.
Bargman Trail Light with new lens from VTS. Also has a new plate holder...
New marker lights...
Metal badge...
Reproduction green factory badge that I pushed VTS to produce...
Repainted MHMA badge...
Water fill...
I'm not sure I am digging the Mercury caps I found. They are ok. They don't fit all that well because they are well used. I'm still looking for another set that won't cost a fortune.
I think that is about it for now. I'm not sure if there will be much more progress before the crappy weather comes and stops progress all together...but stay tuned.

That is one amazing paint job! I have to agree, the decal on top does add a bit of accent to it. The Mercury caps are fine for now, but it does look a bit out of place to me. How much did you get those reproduction factory badges for? They look awesome. :)
