to the forum, Jim.
I'm sure that you're about to "embark on an adventure" with your 2000 Springdale. You're going to find that "necessity is truly the mother of invention" trying to find parts for it as you work on rebuilding it to meet your needs.
Enjoy the work you do in making it a "one of a kind" which I'm sure it will be by the time you're finished. Keep us posted with pictures and details as the progress continues.
