1985 Toyota Huntsman - Modernized - Like Or Dislike?

Hello Dear Reader,

Thank you for stopping by! My Husband and I took this project on last year because we fell in love with the size of toyota motorhomes but we wanted to make better use of its space and modernize the interior. I would like to get the feed back of toyota motorhome enthusiasts to gauge the like or dislike of our work since we are thinking of selling it this year. We have put so much attention and time that now we are a little biased towards it. Your feedback will help me gauge on a list price.

Thanks for looking and for the feedback!

Dianna

I'm also wondering if you have ever had it weighed. Weight is a huge issue with the Toyota motorhomes cause the engines are very little. Those cabinets look like residential cabinets. Kind of heavy for a motorhome. The whole unit looks like it may have been reframed too. Did he use lightweight materials and keep the overall weight in mind

+1 on the axe; check the rear wheels for lug nuts, there should be 6. if 5 the added weight of the cabinets adds to the already bad risk of axle fail during driving where by the wheels sheer off of the rear...

Dianna,

the rear bumper looks great. Did you make that or is it from a car?

The outside skin, is it a new layer of fiberglass?

Thanks,

Marc

I own this Rv now ! I just got the engine replaced! I love the work you guys have done. some rotten wood due to past owners not sealing up properly but I'm working on making this thing a charm again :) paint looks great and is holding up well. The cabinets and stuff are coming apart due to vibration but other than that this thing is solid! I can't wait to start the renovations again
