the pup is now home and in the drive way. First hurdle has been achieved and all the lights now work when plugged into tow vehicle....

fully checked out now....although I have to say if i could find an owners manual for a 1979 rockwood 760 I would be in heaven! I cam with the original fridge, sink and stove. Seems like all the hoses are there for the water but the fresh water tank is gone. Cant test the fridge to see if it works since i cant tell if its propane run or electric....anyone know?

well we are home from the first trip with the camper...loved it. no problems with it other than backing it into the camp site. I can now see some of the mods I want to make and restorations that will be on the agenda! But i do have to say it worked great....DH, I and the grandkids definitely enjoyed the 4 days at the near by lake!!!
