Little Sunny Total Restoration
Hello!
My SO and I picked up a Sunline yesterday, its is so nice to see that there is a whole community for theses campers.
I figured this is the place to start, we purchased the camper for a future road trip across the states and back. It is in rough shape at best, looks like a lot of shotty work was was done to it over the years. I am going to have to replace everything to get this to the condition that we are looking for. It will be a challenge and a learning experience.
It was advertised as a Sunspot but I can tell that it is not, no back opening doors, it has a wash closet and is longer. I believe it to be a 12 1/2 ' MC (Micro Compact) can anyone confirm?
Looking forward to the build, it is definitely going to be a challenge.

Yep, that's a 12 1/2' Mini Compact. I believe it to be a late 1978 or early 1979. VIN should have been on a quality control sheet, glued possibly to the inside of one of the cabinets. It's also stamped into the tongue coupler, on the left side, and will be five or six digits.

Good luck and have fun. I'm doing similar work to my 83 21' goose neck. Check out http://www.sunlineclub.com/forums/f6...tml#post119857 if you want to see how I did the ceiling. It's still a work in progress like yours though. Have fun and ask questions were happy to help!
