Introducing Mr Timothy Birch

I've just got an auto reminder to introduce myself so I best do so. I am middle aged, 5ft 6" and bald. There that's enough of me! I own an AutoSleeper Duetto 1996 which I bought 6 years ago. It has been fully re-upholstered and not a bad job either. I have replaced both side cills, but now the wheel arches are going rusty. Also - the hot air heater has never worked and the gas has gone on the three way fridge. The engine bay has had a fire in it (!) and the two battery trays are like tea bags. There is also a split in the engine bay in between support struts. The engine starts every time and feels like it will go until the rapture, although I have been tempted to get a turbo professionally fitted. I need to replace the soundproofing in the engine bay.

I am about to do said repairs followed by a complete respray. Any advice gratefully received!

Thanks very much for the kind advice already given.

Tim
