Title: G'day from the South West
Post by: bigfella78 on May 10, 2016, 11:55:16 PM

So this arrived by ship today, My father sent me his old Jayco Swan. He is downsizing.

So far all the timbers have been replaced, canvas replaced, fridge, stove/oven, all the mattresses and cushions as well.

The drawbar and Chassis need work or replacement. The electrics need work.

I'm pretty handy but this is above my paygrade. any advice is welcome.

I'm not sure about spending alot of money on upgrading at this stage, more maintenance than anything for now. Upgrades will come if we are going to get the use of the camper.
