Title: My '82 TMC/MCI Mc9 conversion
Post by: caz on February 09, 2011, 06:23:38 PM
My second official post here...
I had taken so many pictures over the last 5 months that I finally posted a blog to showcase the build. All my FaceBook friends know the story but I ran across some blog sites like this and they really helped me with ideas as I went through the process. With the other websites I stumbled across and the valuable info I gleaned from this board, I did 95% of the work myself in 5 months time while working a fulltime job(the other 5% - You just cant drag 2 roof A/C units up a ladder alone ;)). That made for lots of 80hr weeks but the payoff has been worth it. ;D   

Enjoy...

Nice job. Do you have a floor plan someplace, I'd like to see that. How old (big) are your kids? I will need to do some bunks, too, and I've seen few floor plans with bunks.

Good work, and nice to see the pics.

Thanks  ;D

I do have a floorplan. I'll see if I can upload a link to the PDF. It's different than most I've seen because I left the lav in the back, I just really did not want the standard center mounted master bedroom

Kids are 6 and 8. The bunks are 7' long so there's plenty of room for them to grow into them  :)

Here's the floorplan I used.

Here's a walkthrough I did just before my trip to Dallas about a 3 weeks ago.
