Flight of the Phoenix
The Phoenix are the mystical bird in Greek Legend that rose from the ashes to soar again.
Greg & Sandra purchased this 77 some 10 years ago and the
story was that because of an extreme electrical fire in the 110 fuse panel, you
could walk in the door and right out the other side where the wall was melted
away! Oh, BTW, Greg & Sandra are both Paramedic firefighters-- but of
course!
Their dream had gotten its exterior outfitted some 6-8 months
ago with us and now its back for the interior redo. I mean, the interior
wasn't that bad
I think they will enjoy their coach much more the way it now looks though.
From this 
rotted, swollen particle board, to a rebuilt cabinet 
to a fresh new galley 
The sofa is a flip style 
with no overhead cabinet which give the front area a very large feel. 
pay no attention to the roll of extra carpet on the soaf, yes thats a huge flat
screen TV over the dinette-- they like their shows. We installed several
very high efficiency flush mount fluorescent light fixtures, you see Greg &
Sandra have a dream of full timing next your in the coach dry camping wherever
they see an empty spot so "off the grid" will be their credo.
Clean, functional & utilitarian is the focus on their coach. The 3 way
Norcold fits well in the style scheme. I'm particularly pleased that this
coach came in and I was allowed to give it the once over, you see I have known
this coach, Greg & Sandra over 10 years and am also friends with Nelson, who
sold them the core. I have watched the coach go from rags to riches and am
proud of being a part of its resurection.
Now you tell me you would not be thrilled to pilot this baby 
with this brushed nickel 18" leather wrapped "big boy" wheel,
look out over the new dash and watch the head turn as you motor past impressed
onlookers! I'm sorry but this is what its all about!
Thanks Greg & Sandra for having the dream and the desire to do something about it!
