GMC Motorhome, bout ready to paint

Along withCedrics “Ruby” we have Andy’s “Rock the Alps” coach moving toward color, here you see his “guide coat” for his block sand processandy-primer-2

  Jose is still picking off the base and clear that didn’t adhere to the primer on the front clip.  With the one man paint department we were working with last year we could never have put out quality product like we are. 

The “Pickle” is in here getting a whirlwind of work done.  The Pickle is a “money maker” food truck that has to be reliable and can’t just sit around… doesn’t make any money when it’s being worked on!  pickle-6 In @ a week, we have pulled up his intake and blocked off the exhaust crossovers, new fuel pump and alternator, a quad bag system, replumbed his fuel delivery system, installed a new AV radio with blue tooth and all that.  We rebuilt his rear brakes, changed shocks, had some front end work, installed a new roof AC, new roof vent fan, replaced the carb and tuned the motor up….and a partridge in a pear tree….. No way possible to do a volume of work in that time frame in the past. 

So this is what I mean if you think we are slow workers….. and our quality has risen with our new better trained techs… we now have 14 guys working on these coaches so come on down to Florida, go see Mickey, hang out here and we’ll work on your coach.  The newest Central Florida attraction and camping is $10 a night!  Get a deal like that ANYWHERE in Florida during the winter!

Today, the Pickle will leave and the beat goes on……  Gotta do a little social media work se we’ll see ya tomorrow.  Got the first episode of talking about your electrical system over on Patreon.  I hope to record episode 2 today.  I hope yesterdays fodder was informative and enjoyable.  If you haven’t been there yet…. not that computer savvy don’t worry…. me too.  Just search for the site ”  www.patreon.com  ” Do a set-up, it’s free then search for  ‘  Motorhome Rehab Ranch” and there ya are.  It’s also all free so check it out.  Of course if you learned something I would ask to give us $1, don’t need too… we’ll give out all this info for free anyway but if you enjoy it and want to see more, call me on my cell phone any time for help  (321-299-5707), if you want a Co-op pocketed work shirt  26-foot-final-1.  26-foot-final-2 and a “The Dream’s Alive” member hat pin  cmw-pin a really good writing pin, bumper stickers  life-is-more-intro-1, my undying gratitude for your support AND.. oh yea I already said my 24/7 cell phone access for troubles (don’t call at 2AM bout gas prices in Topeka) , hey when you need help brother you need help so call me…….  All that for $50…. hey, what a deal.  Keep watching “Motorhome Rehab Ranch” and be a part of the fun.  You can do all this sighning up right on the Patreon page so have fun and check it all out.

We’ll see ya tomorrow here and any time on Patreon……
