New Scamp Owner here (well new to us...)

We just bought a 1987 Scamp 16, drove up to Michigan to get her.  Brought it home and i'm already working on modifications to get her ready for the spring.  Here's a picture.  Look forward to learning from y'all and figuring out how to best mod this beauty :)

Mods

Congrats! It looks well cared for. I hope you have a heated garage your able to work in. Before figuring what mods to make, which will come naturaly I would suggest taking care of the essentials like tires, bearings, suspention and all the little things that my be ready to wear out so your not ham strung when out on the road.

yeah luckily the previous

yeah luckily the previous owner did the big things, tires are new, bearings packed, new electrical converter, USB charging plugs, replaced a ton of the rivets with screws (with plumbers putty) and end caps, flooring replaced (with ceramic tile!, strange but works).  

 

the stuff i am working on is painting the bathroom door and cabinet doors (everything was cream, looking for contrast), fixing the awning, fixing and cleaning the fridge, and then in the spring i'm gonna get rustoleum rust reformer for the frame/axle.
