Vintage RV & Motorhome restorations - "The GMC Coop"

You are here: Home / The Daily Pose / Good to be back and have you guys back too. Our hit counter jumped…….yeah we’re back…….

September 29, 2020

Good to be back and have you guys back too. Our hit counter jumped…….yeah we’re back…….

………  This must have been something you’ve missed too!   At least a few things can help us stay sane!

What happens when you have 1 cylinder fouled out from excessive oil consumption?This coach did a cross country honeymoon trip…..got home but hurt itselfAfter the honeymoon trip there was little money for a fresh drive train……a descent motorhome must run well too.  This is a Delia many run into.

Here is a motor not a totally rebuilt roller motor as our restorations get…..plasti-gauge bearings, replacing the bad piston (there was a hole in it…..), fresh gaskets, cleaned up valve train, this still a flat tapped motor is the best chance to power this descent survivor coach will go back to the road soon.  With some luck we have another coach back on the roadstill carberated, we’re a bit rolling the dice but sometimes it fits.  Stay tuned for the outcome…….What drive train does ,Thing 1″ have?  Being a P-30 Chevy chassis it’s a 454 ChevyYeah, it’s a morphodite like MutcedesWhy do we build weird stuff like this?  Because we can and we want to stay relevant and creative…….stay tuned for Thing 1PS:  the house awning and metal shelf are hanging around and the GMC hubcaps won’t fit the 19.5″ rims.

Stay with us while these plus other projects move forward.

On our off shelf aluminum radiator projects…..we have incorporated 3 different off shelf side can new aluminum radiators.here’s 1, and anotherand yet a 3rd in Tiago’s project.  and even a 4th system in JD’s coachall work well, now the question is which system integrate the best……..stay tuned……

So that’s it today from Lake Wobegone……..hope your day will move forward well too…..stay tuned.  I see you for more tomorrow……..see ya

Ps:  Long live REZ RADIO.fm…..check it out…. Tell Alexa to play KPRI…….
