Let me know. I'm sure we will have a spot somewhere.

If you have any electrical issues let me know also. I have a clue or two in that area.

The fox mount is pretty mental looking so it might fit nicely with the Scary theme..

I'll let you know. You also need to bring the kid down once my buddies pond freezes. Lots of action and great for the kids.

Thanks guys. She's not done yet. She still has a little interior left along with some outside paint and a couple of road worthy things. All in all a fun project so far. It will be done 100% before we start ice fishing. We probably only have about $750 tops into it including the purchase price. $1200 max we will have an awesome home away from home. We plan on renting it out by the day or week for hunting and fishing when we aren't using it. You will see her at TABBIT even though she won't be on the ice

Maybe Jay can strap a couple trees to the top of her on the way up to Mansfield for the fire pit.

Are you going to put any access holes in the floor?
You could incorporate access panels in the flooring so that instead of obvious "holes" you have a floor panel that lifts up on a hinge. It wouldn't affect the integrity of the floor since the panels could be part of the floor plan itself.
Just my $0.02

It is a sweet ride all the same! Great job!

It was talked about but no access holes will be put in.
