A New Year and a new beginning for Moonraker!

More pictures! This has turned into quite the photo thread I I hope you all are still with me! In the second picture you'll see a bunch of foam shims that will help hold the tanks from shifting within the bellypan cavity. I'll elaborate about the modification of the axle plate in a later picture.

Preliminary fitment of grey tanks



Fitment of grey tank straps



Vulkem oozing out of joint between wheel well & frame



More vulkem applied on all seams of wheel well

“Spin weld” fittings installed



Installation of new “C” channels at base of wall.



Completed “C” channel installation & frame being flipped again to start on undercoating & bellypan fabrication.



Added more elevator bolts to corner areas than were originally used.



Measuring for axle plate extensions

    

A few more from the same day.... take a look at the Mobileglide in the last picture. It's a pretty rare trailer and really cute! I got a tour when I visited and its actually surprising how spacious it feels inside, probably because its sides have less curvature than an Airstream.

Underside of floor & chassis completely undercoated with automotive undercoating



Wheel wells undercoated too. Preliminary fitment of axles.



Undercoated frame & floor.



Prodex cut & marked for each cavity.



Undercoated frame & floor from the rear. Colin's 46 Mobilglide “Globe Trotter” is sitting just behind
