Vintage RV & Motorhome restorations - "The GMC Coop"

(UPDATED BELOW) I knew there was a good use for that 4″ marine bilge blower fan

………We cleaned out these 2 survivor fuel tanks, the bulge fan is blowing air to quickly dry the inside of the tanks before they start rusting….blowing into the sender hole a guy drove in from Kansas to get these.  We have a few out of the dozens we’ve swapped out with a few still viable.  These parts are getting harder to restore.

Another call from one of you out there looking for original Palm Beach seating……And everyone told me I was nuts hanging on to that stuff……..Man I’ve got your green plaid seating!  You never know what you’ll need………..Thanks to a customer who rewrote my alternator light circuit .  I’ll post the much nicer instruction sheet, I’ll post it later.  Guys, this is a serious danger that can take out your wire harness.  I hate to say this but the APC that many have plugged in are a false sense of security…… The circuit needs to be totally bypassed not bandaided.  Please look into this issue…..its real.  If you want to know more on this let me know.  Guys wether you address this or not the danger is still there……dont think it doesn’t effect your coach…..EVERY coach has this issue……really!

So getting this coach ready to leave…..checking everything out opening the frig we found the “dirty diaper” small.  The frig is now deciding which bin to get in….aluminum or steelA new frig it was again ready to go…..flipped on the dash AC and the compressor locked up………guess it’s ready to the Serpantine belt system…….just one more thing!  Amazing…..theres just so many things that can fail……. The question never is what needs to be done but where to stop!  Hey, we can fix that too…..

Another coach gets its chance on the runway…..stay tuned……..

This can’t be fixed……digital printing turned this 10,000 pound boat anchor has outlived its usefulness………….  Isn’t it good to know this machine doesn’t have this problem…..we can make these things work again

(UPDATE)

Here the updated instruction sheet…..thanks man……..$5 for the circuit it’s not worth the gas to make it up…..gimme a call….

See you guys tomorrow and thanks for your support……

    60th is birthday, not anniversary, right?
    Judy and I had 60th anniversary this past New Years Eve.
