[Trailer Trash]

Hi all, just to introduce myself. I'm Teena, on Friday I picked up my 1971 Royale T125. I slept in her for two nights before taking her home!

She needs a bit of work, I've stripped out one corner where the roof window had been left open while in storage. She's been drying out in this perfect weather for it, and tomorrow I'm going to start rebuilding her.

One question, the walls are made of ply with what I think is a beech type of finish. Does anyone know where I can get some of this? The panels I took off are too far gone to re use. If push comes to shove they have some fablon type stuff at B & Q but I'd rather do a proper job!

I'll stick a piccy up of Hattie when I can

Cheers

are the panels that you have removed suitable for patterns?
it makes forming the new panels a damn site easier if you can simply trace them onto a new sheet.
id suggest you use a good quality birch faced plywood and stain it to suit. easily available from builders merchants.
