Behind my reefer it is bone-dry and no sign of rust. Even after this
winter's 100-year rain. This is why we are debating whether our local
SoCal Vanagon club should be called "SouthWesties," or "DryWesties."

I stuck in some 1'' styrofoam sheeting over the existing fiberglass
insulation. I reckon that's about all a fellow can do.
