Early Holiday Gift

Hello Everyone!
How is our Manor today?

Early Holiday Gift

So we have finally run out of our savings, but that doesn't mean we stop. Every day, whether it be big or small tasks, things are getting accomplished. Everyday Justin buffs more of the Spartan or fixes the little things he can. To me that just means we wont miss any important details and when shes done, she will be done right.We have been very fortunate enough to have my grandparents help us and support us while we have been creating our beautiful new home.

The other day while we contemplating what to do next, being that there was little we could do at the moment, my grandpa pulls up with a big smile on his face. In the back of the truck was a huge sheet of aluminum as well as aluminum braces. "Santa came early this year!" I said while hugging him. We thanked and thanked him because now we had the missing piece for the back of the Spartan. Now she finally looks like a trailer and not so much like a , well toy hauler.

Justin started first by pre-drilling all of the holes for the rivets on the trailer first. He then applied silver cocking to prevent water leeks. 

Justin hand riveted over 200 rivets to secure the back.

He also fabricated new braces on the inside of the trailer and then riveted them into place from the outside.
It truly makes a difference seeing the Spartan all closed in. Its coming along so well. We will have to eventually find tail lights and instal those in the new aluminum.

 We are also replacing parts aluminum under the wheel wells; we think that the people who owned the trailer before us must have had a blow out because of the extent of damage that we found in the wheel wells.

Thank you so much for reading!
