Mike, that is fantastic. Hopefully better than new. I never liked using staples unless I'm gluing too. Obviously Newell has a reason why they don't. I'm thinking maybe if there ever was a repair it would be even more difficult than you explained. Seems like screws would my choice of fastener. I have worked on other RV's and everything is pretty much stapled and or glued and pulling any Luan off of 2x2's becomes a combined replacement of materials. And I usually go back overkill without adding any extra weight.

I would love to pick up a later model Newell where I could redo some of the interior to my own liking and of course get something shaved off the purchase price. I'm a sweat equity kind of guy.
