Finally Got My Hands On One
Posted: Thu Dec 07, 2017 2:02 pm
Hello,
After selling my last RV, I was determined to find a B190 locally for sale.
I finally found one about 1.5 hours away, and she's a beauty.
It's been sitting in my driveway for the last couple weeks, since I bought it.
In that time we had a few good rain storms, and the other day I went move it and tons of water came gushing down the inside of the drivers door.
I thought "oh no, I bought a nightmare."
But after finding this site, I am relieved to find it's not a big deal.
Thanks to Kentuckian for posting all the part numbers for rebuilding the top windows.
I removed the bed board and low and behold, there was a lake of water.
At the time it happened I couldn't figure out where it was coming from, but now it makes sense.
It's a 1992 with a dinette instead of a couch. Has 82k and is in pretty good condition.
I plan on doing a lot to this RV, if my wallet can keep up.
Where the kitchen counter is I'll be putting a pullout couch (opposite the dinette), and where the fridge and closet are is where the new kitchen counter will go. (with a smaller fridge / new stove.) On the opposite side where the original stove is, is where the new closet will go. The toilet will be moved into the new all-in-one shower/bathroom.
I purchased a Dana 60 and Sterling 10.5 with 4.10 gears to do a 4x4 conversion.
Not sure I will follow through with this, as it's going to cost a lot more than originally thought. But we'll see.
I have always wanted one of these, and I'm pretty excited to finally be an owner!
