i noticed when you went to look at the underside you had a lot of exposed wood! you need a waterproof barrier to protect it from the elements when driving. all that water hitting the underside
Realize that the drop down “jacks” are not meant to jack up the camper or even it out..they are stabilizers, used to keep the camper from bouncing around when parked and to keep the bunk/bed ends from tipping over the camper, when weight is on the beds.
I loved your video. First the popup camper caught my eye. I have always wanted on. And then the show set up and I am only a spectator but love dressage and jumpers etc. Your crafts are great too. Great luck to you all and continued happiness with the new camper. Does she have a name yet?
Seeing your mom's birthday celebration brought tears to my eyes because I lost my mom almost a year ago. She was 81 years old with parkinson's and them to mancia. And I know that I will never get to celebrate a birthday with my mother or get to tell her that I love her again and face-to-face but cherish those moments that we have with our elders for the fact that we are not here forever. We are only here temporarily. And we have to make the most of not just today , but right here and right now! Now that you have sealed up those cracks, there is fiberglass paint that is amazing! Very little prep is needed for it, but it would be wise to paint your entire roof and the lid for your "Brunk " lid. It will seal and water proof both of those. It works so well that you can basically roll it on with a paint roller. Set time is about 20 minutes and is completely dry in approximately 24 hours. You can paint a car with it and it looks almost brand new! Since you used the Gorilla tape seal, always remember... If you have to overlap the tape, start at the back and work to the front. That way the over lap will lay over the top of the last peice. Wind will drag over the top of that seam and can peel it back off the surface no matter how good of a product it may be. Good luck.
Agreed or you could also use "waxoyl" which is normally used on the underside of cars and comes in a tin to paint or spray on. It will protect the wood from damp and most importantly keep it dry.
IT'S HERE IT'S HERE IT'S HERE THE NEW CAMPER IS HERE WOOHOO I was looking forward to seeing the new one. It is fantastic! We have a lot of these "Coleman" models in England too. I love going to a place where they sell campers, caravans (trailers in the USA) and campervans (or RVs). During the summer they have them all on display opened up and you can go inside and check them out. This one doesn't even look like it has been used much. I bet it smells nice inside (they always have a unique smell don't they haha). Also I love seeing the horses, they are beautiful animals. I go horse riding when I can with a friend and because I'm pretty tall (6ft4 and quite heavy) I usually ride "Ego" who is a gelded part shire. They are such calming animals to be around. You are really "living the life", Morgan! Congratulations on Patty Sue and I'll look forwards to seeing how much fun you have with her. Dan😃
First of all that thing is in cherry condition you got a good buy. Second, just FYI the roof and front hatch aren't fiberglass, they are actually made of ABS plastic and they will deteriorate from sunlight. If you can't store the camper in a garage then a high quality cover should be used to keep the exposure to sunlight to a minimum. There was a class action suit against coleman a decade or so back about these tops cracking and leaking. This is what happened to my '99 coleman Sante Fe with the ABS top. Another FYI, you can use a cordless drill with a deep socket attachment to raise and lower the top, I think it is a 3/4 or 7/8 inch socket. Or you can buy an aftermarket electric power lift for about $250.
I love Patty Sue already, darn that thing is a hotel on wheels. Great idea to do some double water proofing on the roof. Is it any heavier to tow compared to Bessie? Overall I’d say you got a great deal on this and I am sure it will help make your work trips way more comfortable and convenient. I loved the videography of the cross country stuff, great shots.
Agreed, gorilla tape is ok for the short term. A spray on bed liner sealer would work better for the long term. And be SUPER careful with the crack and weather sealer for your frunk, fix it fast. We had a pup (pop up, you'll learn the lingo) with a frunk that cracked and had bad water damage. Your pup is sooo sweet, you'll want to keep it that way. Be careful with winter and snow/ice when storing. And I love your photography! What a dream job!
What you did to seal the roof won't work. The ABS roof is what bankrupted the manufacturer. Before you get into greater trouble with it starting to separate from foam, you need to coat it with truck bed liner material, don't wait for it to get worse.
As a supervisor for a powder coating company, start spraying away from the surface and with a steady spray and one swipe all the way past the camper then lift your finger off the trigger, then start another swipe the other way all same direction then across, then a fog layer over the complete top. The 24 hrs is a cure time but read the paints manufacturer label maybe actually a week. Should tape off first
Take your sway bar off when parking. You can bend the balls it mounts too if you squeeze the wrong way. I had the next step Niagara of roughly same vintage. We camped in it for 9 years and had a blast. My child loved the outdoors. The roof has a long guarantee, and you may be able to get it replaced.
Gotta ask, is there a way to grease the hubs, bearings quickly without taking the whole wheel assy apart? i.e when you first buy a camper and before you leave from the seller?
Just picked MonteReyElite, this month they are almost identical except that the insidelayout is a bit different bigger dinette , but doesn't have the second couch... And the elite part means you should have an electric pop-up motor and bed slide motors , havent been able to get mine to work but they are there.. it has already been bunled up for the winter so that will have to wait.
I got a steamer on FB for $20. They make hard work so easy. I would’ve got on the roof with it to clean the textured roof. If not that you can get 4 cleaning brush attachments for a handheld drill to clean with for $7.
I’m being nosy….what have you figured out for a toilet….there are many options! Love the camper and especially the fact you wanted it and made it happen….and love your excitement! Great job! You’ll learn what you need as you go along and have a blast and laughs doing it!
Hi whatcha up to hope all is well prayers 4 healing and unspoken also 4 everyone and bless great healthy peaceful safe journeys travels and happy camping and happy day everyday in the name of the Creator God and Yeshua/Jesus and the Holy Ghost Amen much honor and respect keep walking tall yall and cool cool new cmpr trlr also what did u do with betsy yall could have torn her to the frame and build yall a tiny cabin out of the trlr plus have the new pop up wow ur new pop is huge cool cool videos and keep praying and keep walking tall yall and have fun 4 me too also sand rinse and flex seal the roof the gallon flex seal paint and roller brush it on it u prepare the surface the flex seal does wonders cool patty sue gonna love the tlc cool garden 🚌🌅🌌⛺🌄🏞🏖 👍👍💪🙂👍👍
your watermelon will taste just like cucumbers, experienced once in my own life, once. Hard lesson learned had a whole row of cucumbers next to a whole row of watermelon, lost em all.
Cant bring it into a national and some state parks! If they were my sisters I'd insist they have a handgun with them for safety. No gun, then get a flare gun, shot in the face will stop rhe criminal or bear.
Yeah, the parks are cracking down on tents and pop ups do to bears... you're right, guns a must, bats, etc in inconspicuous places, gotta have a defense and excape plan! Then kick back...
@@johncreed2627 Really? I did not know that. That's a deal-breaker for me then I guess I'll never buy a pop-up like that. I want to be able to go to any park.

You could live in that . What a lucky find .Enjoy!!!!!

Pretty cool camper! My wife and first started camping in a borrowed popup. Now were in a bigger camper. we love rv camping
I was sad to see Bessy go but what an upgrade Patty-Sue is! Looking forward to more camper adventures!
Thank you so much!

We have used the Flex seal and its held up well for years now. They have a roll on paintable sealant
Defnately do the truck bed liner. We had an abs roof that was an issue, please do that to keep the roof from getting worse
Great video!!! Nice camper too!!! Btw, I love the way you look!!! Beautiful natural look!!! I'm crushing bad!!! Lol ❤
I would paint the under side of the trailer, with a bed liner style paint..
That press board can't handle water....
Agreed or you could also use "waxoyl" which is normally used on the underside of cars and comes in a tin to paint or spray on. It will protect the wood from damp and most importantly keep it dry.
Ditto
IT'S HERE IT'S HERE IT'S HERE
THE NEW CAMPER IS HERE

Overall I’d say you got a great deal on this and I am sure it will help make your work trips way more comfortable and convenient. I loved the videography of the cross country stuff, great shots.
Yes much heavier! Bessie was 1500 lbs and Patty Sue is 3,200 lbs! And thank you so much! ❤️
Congratulations on the new trailer.
Thank you so much!

New video coming of me sealing it with UV Protector!
Just picked up a 99bayside in the exact shape myself! Congratulations!
Thank you!! Congrats to you too!
So cool! Love hearing your enthusiasm! I'm the same way. Definitely gonna start following.
What you did to seal the roof won't work. The ABS roof is what bankrupted the manufacturer. Before you get into greater trouble with it starting to separate from foam, you need to coat it with truck bed liner material, don't wait for it to get worse.
Good to know! Thank you! I will look into white truck liner!
As a supervisor for a powder coating company, start spraying away from the surface and with a steady spray and one swipe all the way past the camper then lift your finger off the trigger, then start another swipe the other way all same direction then across, then a fog layer over the complete top. The 24 hrs is a cure time but read the paints manufacturer label maybe actually a week. Should tape off first
Not spurts of coating... you'll get runs like you did at your first try. But hey A for effort...you did good!
It’s a great price!!! I can’t wait to get mine too!😊
Seems like a sweet find...congrats!!
Take your sway bar off when parking. You can bend the balls it mounts too if you squeeze the wrong way. I had the next step Niagara of roughly same vintage. We camped in it for 9 years and had a blast. My child loved the outdoors. The roof has a long guarantee, and you may be able to get it replaced.
Very lovely camper looks like youve solved the water problems with that tape. thanks for the Video
Thank you! If you check out my most recent video I sealed her up with Marine Liner!
The first thing that goes wrong are the haulsals so keep them lubricated (wires that raise the roof)
Oh thank you! I will do that!
Gotta ask, is there a way to grease the hubs, bearings quickly without taking the whole wheel assy apart? i.e when you first buy a camper and before you leave from the seller?
What did you do with the '94 Jayco?
I would get 4cans of rubber sealant for under carriage seal that chip board floor. Under coating
I will do that! Thank you!
I would spray that OSB board underneath to protect it. Nice pop up tho. Sounds like an awesome deal.
That's huge!!! What did you do with Bessie?
Bessie was sold to a nice man in Wisconsin!
@@morganchapmanmedia That's good to hear.

Oh wow it even has a roof AC. THAT’S when you know you’ve upgraded.
did i miss something what happened to the 350 camper
No way that’s epic you have a Coleman with a slide I have a 2016 rock wood freedom that has a slide
Nice!! Thank you!!
I got a steamer on FB for $20. They make hard work so easy. I would’ve got on the roof with it to clean the textured roof. If not that you can get 4 cleaning brush attachments for a handheld drill to clean with for $7.
Great video. Nice camper. Where's the toilet or what did you do for a toilet???
Peecan...jk
We have a pop up and the roof on these suck.
Am I allowed to ask what did you do with the Jayco
No toilet or shower inside the fleetwood colemen bayside? Thats the one step up from the williamsburg that i have. Mine has a toilet and shower.
I’m being nosy….what have you figured out for a toilet….there are many options! Love the camper and especially the fact you wanted it and made it happen….and love your excitement! Great job! You’ll learn what you need as you go along and have a blast and laughs doing it!
Very nice!
Thank you! Cheers!
Is it waterproof?
How it do in rain and snow?
Dose it leak when it it's rained or snowed on?
Well done!!
Thank you!
Is sides of camper replaceable after their been worn out?
When are you going to decorate inside?
Sweet!
There a bunch of those in fort worth tx
Careful don’t roll out off bed I did as a kid everybody laughed I cruised first then laughed about it one of those first camping trips

Congrats

Is it blue?
It’s mostly white with blue accents!
Dose it keep warm in cold weather and cool in hot weather?
Yes. They have to..
Cant bring it into a national and some state parks! If they were my sisters I'd insist they have a handgun with them for safety. No gun, then get a flare gun, shot in the face will stop rhe criminal or bear.

My parents had pop up camper when kid .

Nice!!
7:36 it's rotten!
Hola qué modelo de Pop-Up es el tuyo ?
It’s a 2002 Collman Fleetwood Bayside Elite!
How much was this !!
Never mind $4500 lol
$4500 🫡
Where can I get one
15:46 You are not butt naked....

Yeah nar
Sizzor me
No toilet?
Or shower, they are tents on wheels that's why you can't bring them into national and some state parks!
@@johncreed2627 Really? I did not know that. That's a deal-breaker for me then I guess I'll never buy a pop-up like that. I want to be able to go to any park.
Bathroom?
9:29 it bothers me every time that she says "for I" ... she says it multiple times in every video... it sounds so odd
Looks good to me
