Rewire Interior of 1975 13’ Scamp

Hello! Has anyone completely rewired the interior electrical for a 1975 13’ Scamp? We are looking to add outlets and light fixtures and things like that. We are totally new to owning a camper, let alone a Scamp, but we are excited to remodel our interior as it definitely needs some TLC! Any tips or advice on such a venture?

Wiring

Hi Emily,

While not totally rewiring I basically did a lot of wiring upgrades in a 1981 13 Scamp remodel. Still used the basic harness and most of the wiring that was in place, but beefed it up by adding wiring blocks both front and rear for tracking and future expansion. Added quite a few features like a switch panel that controlled all the lights in the trailer from the master bed, etc.

You can see an overview of the Scamp 13 remodel here

It's a great opportunity build your trailer from the ground up and add features that you want.

Wow! You did an amazing job

Wow! You did an amazing job with your scamp Greg! A couple questions off the topic of rewiring, what did you use to repaint the inside and fill in any crevices of the inside layer of the scamp? We definitely need to do the same to ours.

Also it looks like you added some cabinet space above the dining area. Our goal is to do the same! What material did you use for the cabinets and how did you attach it to the walls? 

Thanks Greg! Your video was great!
