FINALLY, a remodeled RV that's worth watching. I love you idea of the carpet on the walls. Also impressed with your sewing capabilities. I give you an A+. You have inspired me to do the same. Thx Mark
WOW!!! Beautiful job! You did such a fantastic job making this little camper into a warm place to snuggle into! I am so impressed with all you did. Thank you so much for making this video, that was some nice work also! Happy Traveling, Tammie Miller
That was awesome, It looked pretty decent when you started fixing it up, but you really made it look beautiful. Awesome job. My favorite is the cabinet doors with the pictures of the outdoors and one with the picture of the camper on it. Each picture was framed. And the detail on the pictures was amazing.
I have to say this is the very first time I have Ever commented on TH-cam....WOW you are so talented and did an amazing job. Well done!!! It takes alot to impress me and you did just that. Blessings to you.
STUNNING!!! What a labor of love. You are a true craftsman! So nice of you to fix it up for me! You can bring it on over anytime... Wink wink... Great job! How long did it take from beginning to end? The wood burning is spectacular! WoW!!! Thanks for sharing!
I was going to say small jobs but ones worth doing and then you just kept going. cracking images on the door panels. very nice work across the board. You also have me some ideas with those little computer fans which I have a bunch of sitting around. cheers
Pretty much all small jobs and mostly on the cheap. Fun project though, and those fans don't look like much but feel good when your sitting with it blowing on your neck. Thanks cheers!
You messed up with your "restoration". You didn't put the ice box back to functioning condition. I should know. My family had one for over 15+ years. Other than that, beautiful job! We absolutely loved ours, we just grew out of it.
Thank you! We decided to use that space for storage instead. So I put some cabinet doors on the opening, but I kept the ice box in case we wanted to put it back in. For now it's good for our needs. We love ours too, but will eventually get something bigger when we retire.
Definitely a steal! At that price it wouldn't have lasted a day if it had the name scamp on it. Most people don't realize that it is in fact a scamp. The condition I bought it as should've been in the 3 thousand range.
great job with the trailer renovation. I hope you don't sell it and I hope you have someone you can leave it to that will appreciate it. I like the Woodburn cabinets very nice artwork. I also like how you reconditioned the aluminum brightwork and name of the company and model of the trailer. I like how you kept it original all the while giving it modern touches such as LED lights and ventilation and 12 volt electrical. nice job with the upholstery and carpeting that will help with sound and thermal insulation I'm sure. I hope you enjoy your time in nature.
Me again . I’ve looked everywhere for led marker lights with mounting holes center to center at 2.75 inches (69.8mm) as the original ones have , with no luck. I see you replaced yours . Did you find some or did you drill bigger holes ? Scamp doesn’t have them . Thanks
Finally got a chance to take a look at this video -- wow, nice job. I can see from the before pictures that the design elements for late 70s fiberglass trailers were the same ones used in late 70s fiberglass sailboats. Your woodburning skills really gave a personal artistic touch to the completed project.
+Random Button Pusher Design of the scamp has changed very little as well. Tried capture one of our favorite camping spots in the woodburning and that is our old golden retriever she was a great camping dog. So yeah a bit of a personal touch to it. Thank you
Wow... You killed it!! Cabinetry, sewing, electrical, walls, flooring, exterior... Can you cook too..?! One of THE best renovation videos that I have seen!
I am not a fan of campers, but this one is Dope! You Sir Pimped It! Did I see a vintage green Coleman folding picnic table at your campsite at the end of the video?
Kevin beautiful work, beside your TLC and labor how much did your materials cost refurbish the camper. A real nice piece of video to watch you work and seeing the finished product! WOW...
Hi Kevin, are you located in Wisconsin? I bought a 1987 Uhaul a few months back and Ive had a hell of a first timer experience trying to remodel this puppy, I could really use some pointers. Im in Georgia unfortunately (chicago native 4 life lol)
Hey Anna, yep lovin life in Wisconsin. Had to look up the uhaul trailers, didn't realize they made them.. very cool! I'm sure you'll have many great adventures. Have fun with the remodel. Nothing I did was rocket science, and some a little unconventional but I guess the best advice I could give you would be to think "lightweight as you design. Also make sure wheel barings have been packed recently. I've seen a few people have had their wheels lock up on them.
Biggest mistake I ever made was carpet squares, I just spent 6 hrs trying to get them out. Now I'm having to redeck the floor, glue is impossible to get off, as far as I'm concerned that is. LOL. Beautiful rig!
That's to bad. Sounds like a nightmare! In my case I figure if the squares didn't work something else would end up covering it so I wasn't worried to much. It all worked out for me but I was just trying to do it as cheap as possible. Much better options I'm sure!
Wow...is there anything you can't do? You have some skills, my friend. Don't stop doing rhose right things. May God continue to bless everything you put your hands to.
Came here looking for tips for my 67 Boler. Lots of great ideas and extremely well executed. Then the wood burning on the cupboards; I tap out here. And tip my hat as truely, you are a man of many talents! Cheers from Canada!
Thanks! It's been 9 years and still holding. I've had to add liquid nails a few times, mainly in the curves by the ceiling. I'm sure there are better options out there, the carpet squares were just meant to be a quick fix on the cheap, but they lasted longer than I thought.
Just bought a 1987 13’ scamp trailer to restore. I was getting ready to clean and paint the elephant skin on the walls but after watching this I may do the carpet squares. My question is, did you stick these right on the elephant skin or did you remove it? (hoping I can just stick them to it)
I stuck it right to the elephant skin and used some additional adhesion spray. The corners were a bit tricky so I used liquid nails in some places. Good luck it can be a challenge getting it all to line up because of all the curves.
Thanks! I was just looking to cover it on the cheap. It's held up much better than I expected. The rubber type material was way to nasty and sticky. Tried a bunch of cleaning stuff but none of it helped and the "rat fur" that scamp sells was to much$ at the time. So not sure what else I could've used.
With everything you can do,I guess it's safe say that's you playing the guitar at mid.-end of video too,lol, wow you are a very talented man,and very nice to share your video, TY
You had me all the way up until I saw that you are a Packers fan.. just kidding. Very impressive reboot on the 79 Acorn. Go Steelers! God Bless.
FINALLY, a remodeled RV that's worth watching. I love you idea of the carpet on the walls. Also impressed with your sewing capabilities.
I give you an A+. You have inspired me to do the same. Thx Mark
This is a masterpiece! The best redo of an RV I have ever seen. It looks better than brand new!
Beautiful work. Nothing else to say but WOW.
Who the heck gave you a thumbs down!
But, can you make biscuits? Enjoyed the video. You, sir, are very talented and skilled.

+R Privette Thank you! I didn't really keep track of the the time I put into it.
I absolutely love what you did
I was going to say small jobs but ones worth doing and then you just kept going.
cracking images on the door panels.
very nice work across the board.
You also have me some ideas with those little computer fans which I have a bunch of sitting around.
cheers
Pretty much all small jobs and mostly on the cheap. Fun project though, and those fans don't look like much but feel good when your sitting with it blowing on your neck. Thanks cheers!
Beautiful work.
Thank you!
Sure enjoyed your video!!! LOVE the kitchen cabinets!!! So much more quaint and homey then a lot of those boring, modern cabinets now a days!!!
You messed up with your "restoration". You didn't put the ice box back to functioning condition. I should know. My family had one for over 15+ years. Other than that, beautiful job! We absolutely loved ours, we just grew out of it.

@@UpNorthAdventures watching it again with my dad. He's got a smile on his face! Didn't notice the woodburning the 1st time. EXCELLENT!
My uncle has the same little camper, i thought it was the most bitchin little camper
Thats cool there were only about a 100 acorn campers made before going back to the name scamp. So he's one of the few.
Dude! Nice job!
Nice job.
I have a 99 16 footer that I'm just about ready to take off the blocks I put it on in the winter. Presque Isle here I come!
What a jewel! Fantastic work. Great video.
Thank you
Great job, ton of work
veery nice job and even did artwork on the wood, nice little camper.
Thank you!
awesome... love the cabinet doors.. I agree you are very talented.. must be a jack of all trades....
Can’t believe how cheap you got that for!
Definitely a steal! At that price it wouldn't have lasted a day if it had the name scamp on it. Most people don't realize that it is in fact a scamp. The condition I bought it as should've been in the 3 thousand range.
Great Job Kevin. Love the wood burned cabinet fronts!
Thank you!
Nice Job, wish I was that handy. Love the Packers Chair ya got there too, go PACK go!!
Great job on fixing this tailer up. Do you still have the Scamp Trailer? How's it holding out? Excelent job on the wood burning.

You have skills. Enjoy your beautiful camper.
That cabinet door art is amazing!!! Go Pack Go!
Very nice job! I really liked the personal touch with the art work. Well done!
The free hand wood burning is amazing... I wish I had 1/16th of your talent... I can't even draw a stick man or woman without getting it all wrong...
+Crash Weekly lol. Thank you!
WOW! I'm so impressed! So glad you shared that with us. Thanks
Now this was awesome!! Good job! Looks really good
wow! Excellent job! you're very talented!
Your title gives the impression this is being done for resale. Looks good though. Thanks for sharing.
Sweet remodel - love the woodworks. Thank you for sharing 😊
Great restoration, Amazing Wood Burning Art. thanks for sharing
Nice job Kevin, enjoy the trips with the Scamps..
Very nice. Absolutely love the wood burning ideas
I love the idea of carpet tile wall covering! Great video and great info. Thanks!
What CAN'T you do? Awesome makeover. Curious as how the carpet tiles held up? Did you need additional adhesive?
Thank you! Its been almost 4 years and still holding strong. I had to add liquid nails in the corners where its rounded other than that its been good.
Very nice, including music. Happy trails.
What a great video. You did a fantastic job restoring this little acorn.
Awesome Work! Thanks for sharing; We are restoring a 1974 Winnie Indian, so much work so we love watching other restorations to get some ideas.
Thanks! So much work but after adding your own touch it will be well worth it.
Wow! Beautiful job! You are quite the Craftsman! 👍😉🚙🏞️. Enjoy!🌞
Thank you!
Top notch, very nice video! Great job on the details I like it a lot.
You did a great job on this trailer, love the way you did the upper cabinets doors. Fantastic !
+Joy panell Thank you very much
Wow, love it! Getting into RV'ing myself and you really have a talent sir.
+Mur Diesel thanks
Me again . I’ve looked everywhere for led marker lights with mounting holes center to center at 2.75 inches (69.8mm) as the original ones have , with no luck. I see you replaced yours . Did you find some or did you drill bigger holes ? Scamp doesn’t have them . Thanks
I drilled. Same with tail lights
Good job! Do you cook too? LOL

Wow, is there anything you can't do? You had me at the wood burned cabinet doors!!
Lol, thanks! Plenty of things I can't do but there's always TH-cam to show me how.
I am not a fan of campers, but this one is Dope! You Sir Pimped It!
Did I see a vintage green Coleman folding picnic table at your campsite at the end of the video?
Thanks man. Got that table at goodwill for 5 bucks it's been great!
wonderful job! thanks
Kevin beautiful work, beside your TLC and labor how much did your materials cost refurbish the camper. A real nice piece of video to watch you work and seeing the finished product! WOW...
John thanks! I didn't keep track, but everything was pretty cheap. The rims cost the most.
Nice video and great looking engraving :D
thats amazing! great job!
Your wood burning art is FAVTASTIC!!!!! What an artist you are. The camper is beautiful. Thanks so much for the inspiration
Thank you very much!. Glad you liked it.

+Daniela Lara Thank you. Never really kept track of the time. just worked on it a little here and there.
Thank you. It was a fun project
+Ace Carter Thanks for the kind words. I do plan on making more videos on the camper and woodburnings so stay tuned for that and thanks for the sub.
Wow...is there anything you can't do? You have some skills, my friend. Don't stop doing rhose right things. May God continue to bless everything you put your hands to.

I'm remodeling an 84 scamp, yours looks great! How well did your carpet squares end up sticking on the walls and ceiling?
Thanks! It's been 9 years and still holding. I've had to add liquid nails a few times, mainly in the curves by the ceiling. I'm sure there are better options out there, the carpet squares were just meant to be a quick fix on the cheap, but they lasted longer than I thought.

how much did that area of carpet cost you, and where do you get it?
Nice work. Thanks for sharing.
most women drool over designer handbags, I drool over this beautiful puppy :D
Lol.. too funny! I think I'm gonna need a sign.. Please don't slobber on the camper! 😜🤤
you have skills...nice work
Looks terrific! Thanks for sharing
Nice work looks good love the scamps.
Nice work. Just wondering - Had you considered interior other than carpet?
Thanks! I was just looking to cover it on the cheap. It's held up much better than I expected. The rubber type material was way to nasty and sticky. Tried a bunch of cleaning stuff but none of it helped and the "rat fur" that scamp sells was to much$ at the time. So not sure what else I could've used.
Pimp my house on wheels
I LOVE this size camper and you made it so special. Those cabinets though...
Thank you!
Incredible job!!! You can do it all.
With everything you can do,I guess it's safe say that's you playing the guitar at mid.-end of video too,lol, wow you are a very talented man,and very nice to share your video, TY
Nope lol. I play a little guitar just for fun but I'm not that good.
